If Ole Hank Could Only See Us Now
If ole Hank could only see us now
If he could see what we got goin' down
We got learjets and buses, chauffeured limousines
We done moved from the Ryman and Opry's on TV
I'd give a hundred dollars if I could know somehow
What'd ya think if ole Hank could see us now?
Well, Nashville's got too rich to sing the blues
They've traded in their cowboy boots
For high-heeled Gucci shoes
Looks like they took the music out to lunch
There ain't a decent yodel in the bunch
If ole Hank could see us now
If he could see what we got goin' down
We got game shows and videos and a lot of souvenirs
From machines and synthesizers ringin' in our ears
I'd give a hundred dollars if I could know somehow
What'd ya think if ole Hank could only see us now?
(Yeah)
It's still a long hard road but you know you're at the top
When the CMA awards you for crossin' over pop
I guess they finally think we've come of age
Singin' through the smoke, strobe lights on the stage
If ole Hank could only see us now
If he could see what we got goin' down
We got learjets and buses, chauffeured limousines
We done moved from the Ryman and Ralph Emery's on TV
I'd give a hundred dollars if I could know somehow
What'd ya think if ole Hank could see us now
We spend two hundred thousand dollars
Makin' compact discs
And the record never scratch and never break
Ver break, ver break, ver break, ver break
(Ha, ha, ha)
If he could see what we got goin' down
We got learjets and buses, chauffeured limousines
We done moved from the Ryman and Opry's on TV
I'd give a hundred dollars if I could know somehow
What'd ya think if ole Hank could see us now?
Well, Nashville's got too rich to sing the blues
They've traded in their cowboy boots
For high-heeled Gucci shoes
Looks like they took the music out to lunch
There ain't a decent yodel in the bunch
If ole Hank could see us now
If he could see what we got goin' down
We got game shows and videos and a lot of souvenirs
From machines and synthesizers ringin' in our ears

And the record never scratch and never break
Ver break, ver break, ver break, ver break
(Ha, ha, ha)
