Hank Williams Jr. Album

Mothers against drunk drivers
The Pope is against the pill
The union's against the workers
Working against their will
The President's against the Congress
The Senate is against the House
People are against politicians
And I'm against cats in the house

But I'm for love and I'm for happiness
And I'm for “if you don't like it can't you just let it rest."
And I'm for turning off the music; turning down the lights
‘Cause I'm for nothing else but you and me tonight

The cities against the counties
The counties against the state
The state is against the government
And the highways still ain't paved
The banker's against the farmer
The farmer's against the wall
Doctors against me smoking
And the devil is against us all

But I'm for love and I'm for happiness
And I'm for “if you don't like it can't you just let it rest."
And I'm for turning off the tube; turning down the lights
‘Cause I'm for nothing else but you and me tonight

The cops are against the robbers
The laws are against the cops
Justice is against the system
And some people are blowing their tops
The horse is against the automobile
The bus is against the train
The train is against the jumbo jet
And I'm against fishing in the rain

But I'm for love I'm all for happiness
And I'm for “if you don't like it can't you just let it rest."
And I'm for turning off the tube; turning down the lights
‘Cause I'm for nothing else but you and me tonight

Hey, I'm for love I'm all for happiness
And I'm for not looking for something to make us mad
I'm all for turning off the music; turning down the lights
And I'm for nothing else but you and me tonight

The streets are paved with tourist and the record companies flourish
Lord knows every singer wants to be the king
But some of them couldn't take it and some good one's didn't make it
That's the way it goes on the Nashville scene

Now there's a wino on the corner
he was a well known guitar picker 'til he got burned out by the game
Now he'll bum you for some whiskey and tell you how it was back in '52 when he played for Hank
and I'm watching the sun go down this evening and soon it will wake this town that's made of dreams
But before it does a new star will be shining and that's the way it is on the Nashville scene
From the outside its a castle, from the inside its a prison its easy to live way beyond your means

and its a long, long way to the top and even further when you drop and I've been on both ends of the Nashville scene
And I'm watching the sun go down this evening and soon it'll wake this town that's made of dreams
but before it does a new star will be shining and lighting up the ole Nashville scene
and I'm standing here as the sun goes down this evening and soon it will wake this town that's made of dreams
but before it does a new star will be shining lighting up the Nashville scene
lighting up the Ole Nashville scene

No one to talk with, all by myself
No one to walk with, but I'm happy on the shelf
Ain't misbehavin', I'm savin' my love for you

Now I know for certain, you're the one I love
I'm through with flirtin', just you I'm dreamin' of
Ain't misbehavin', I'm savin' my love for you

Like Jack Horner, in a corner
Don't go no where, why do I care?
Your kisses are worth waiting for, believe me

I don't stay out late, I don't care to go
I'm home about eight, just me and my radio
Ain't misbehavin', I'm savin' my love for you

Like Jack Horner, in a corner
Don't go nowhere, why do I care?
Your kisses are worth waiting for, believe me

I went home with a waitress
The way I always do
How was I to know
She was with the Russians too? - Ooh!

I was gambling in Las Vegas
I took a little risk
Send lawyers, guns and money
To get me out of this - Hey!

I'm an innocent bystander
And somehow I got stuck
Between a rock and a hard place
And I'm down on my luck
Oh I'm down on my luck
Yes I'm down on my luck

I'm hiding in Honduras
I'm a desperate man
Send lawyers, guns and money
The shit has hit the fan - Help!

Coming back

Send lawyers, guns and money

Send lawyers, guns and money
?
Hurry Up!
Send lawyers, guns and money

This ain't Dallas and this ain't Dynasty
This is a real-life two job working family
And I ain't J.R. You ain't Suellen
We're just a man and a woman holding things together

I work every day the sun comes up from eight until five
I don't have a new Mercedes car or a chauffer to drive
My wife ain't out shoppin' with a country club queen
Cause she's workin' in the morning until she picks up the kids at three

And this ain't Dallas and this ain't Dynasty
This is a real-life two job working family
And I ain't J.R. You ain't Suellen
We're just a man and a woman holding things together

Now we all like to watch those shows and we all like to dream
You know J.R. is making deals and Alexis is making steam
Joan and Linda, Victoria and Morgan they're a sight to see
My ole lady said, "I know what you're thinkin'"
I said "Now honey, don'tcha know all of that is on TV

And this ain't Dallas, this ain't Dynasty
This is makin' a livin' down in Tennessee
And I ain't J.R. and you ain't Suellen
Nah We're just man and woman holding things together

No this ain't Dallas and this ain't Dynasty
This is makin' a livin' down in Tennessee
I ain't J.R. and you ain't Suellen
Nah just man and woman holding this thing together

And we're just a man and woman holding this thing together

I've been around.
I used to sing songs that were hand-me-downs.
I've been called a hero,
I've been called a clown.
I've learned the old ways and the new ways now.

I've been around.
I can drop names that will knock ya down.
I've rock and rolled and I've fiddled around,
From Hollywood to the Nashville sound.

I've been around,
Climbed the highest mountain I found.
I went to the top and I fell back down.
And I know what I'm talking about,
'Cause I've been around.

I've been in love.
I've been down on my knees and prayed to God above.
"Why does so much pain go with so mich love?
Why is she still the one I'm dreaming of?"

Yeah, I've been around,
And the best two friends I've ever found
Are a woman's love and a guitar sound.
And I know what I'm talking about,
'Cause I've been around.
Yeah I've been around.
