Hank Williams Woman

Stopped at a truck stop
Bought a Hank Williams' tape today
Then I got back on the interstate, and I drove away
The more I listen to the words of his songs
I heard it closer, alright, head home

I'll bet Hank Williams' woman was a lot like you
I could've written all those songs he wrote after all that you put me through
Ain't no wonder he was lonesome and blue
I'll bet Hank Williams' woman was a lot like you

I believe that Hank called like he saw it when he was writing them songs
And that's probably Wednesdays were short, and its nights were long
You have a lot in common with her, from my point of view
I'll bet Hank Williams' woman was a lot like you

There's a freight train at morning
Next to this concrete slab that I'm riding on
There's a heartbreak down in a lonesome road
Long-last highway song

Everything reminds me of your leaving in the night
And it tells me you ain't her, but just alike

I'll bet Hank Williams' woman was a lot like you
I could've written all those songs he wrote after all that you put me through
Ain't no wonder he was lonesome and blue
I'll bet Hank Williams' woman was a lot like you

I'll bet Hank Williams' woman was a lot like you
I bet you pose for his mama but just like you, baby
