Hank Williams Jr. Album

I got Ketchup on my blue jeans,
I just burned my hand.
Lord, its hard to be a bachelor man.
I got girls that can cook,
I got girls that can clean.
I got girls that can do anything in between.
I gotta get ready,
Make everything right,
'Cause all my rowdy friends are comin' over tonight.

Do you wanna drink?
Hey, do you wanna party?
Hey honey, this is ol' Hank.,
Ready to get this thing started.
We cooked a pig in the ground,
Got the beer on ice,
And all my rowdy friends are comin' over tonight.


My party pad is out in the woods,
It's a long, long way from here to Hollywood.
But I got some natural queens out on the floor,
And ol' Miss Mississippi just walked in the door.
Got a lil' whirlpool just made for 10,
You can jump out and you can jump in.
You can do anything that you wanna do,
But oh now don't you step on my cowboy boots.


Do you wanna drink?
Hey, do you wanna party?
Hey this is ol' Hank.,
Ready to get this summer started.
We cooked a pig in the ground,
Got the beer on ice,
And all my rowdy friends are comin' over tonight.


Do you wanna drink?
Hey, do you wanna party?
Hey this is rockin vandal Hank.,
Ready to get this summer started.
We cooked a pig in the ground,
Got the beer on ice,
And all my rowdy friends are comin' over tonight.

I don't care if you never come home.
I don't mind if you just
Keep on rolling away on a distant sea,
'Cause I don't love you and you don't love me.

You cause a commotion when you come to town.
You give 'em a smile and they melt.
And your lovers and friends is all good and fine.
But I don't like yours and you don't like mine.
La la la la la la la

I don't care what you do late at night.
No, and I don't care how you get your delights.
I'll leave you alone,
I'll just let you be.
I don't love you and you don't love me.

I got a problem, can you relate?
I got a woman callin' love hate.
We made a vow that we'd always be friends.
How could we know that promises end?
La la la la la la la

I tried to love you for years upon years.
You wouldn't take it for real.
It's time you saw what I wanted you to see,
And I'd still love you and you'd still love me.

I got a problem, can you relate?
I got a woman callin' love hate.
Aw, we made a vow that we'd always be friends.
How could we know that promises end?
La la la la la la la

La la la la la la la

Well the latest craze going around
Is called the video cassete recorder.
And I was the first one in my town
To send off my money order.
Well I thought that thing would never get here
But old UPS came through.
I ripped the box apart and bless their hearts
They sent a free movie too.
Well I hooked it up once
And I hooked it up twice and 8 or 9 more times.
I had it all wrong but I finally got it right,
Just play, stop, rewind.
I grabbed the movie they sent and I shoved it right in
It was called The X-Rated Reviews.
Now, I seen movies where folks kiss
But I never seen nothing like this.
Oh Lord, I got the video blues.

Well I drove downtown to join the tape club
And friends I've got some news.
Most all the movies they had down there
Was just like they one they sent me too.
I bought Star Wars, Jaws, Poltergeist, Superman 1 and 2.
When they added it up I'd spent three hundred bucks.
I got the video blues.

I got the video blues, don't know what to do.
This could get expensive.
I want a camera to zoom, remote control too,
So I can make documentaries.
Now they're trying to pass laws about copyrights and all
And taping things off of the tube.
I'd probably be better off if they's haul this thing off,
'Cause I've got the video blues.

Well I called my girl to come on over
'Cause I had new movies to show.
I started her off with Smokey And The Bandit
I thought I'd kind of take it slow.
But later that night when the time was right
I showed one called Sweedish Ways.
She said, "Well, I've never in my life..
Well, I guess it's alright...
Hey! Yeah, go on, let it play!"

I got the video blues, what have I got into?
This thing has taken my place.
She don't wanna hug or make any love.
She just sits there with that funny look on her face.
I came on too strong, I shoulda known all along
What I was getting into.
She won't give me a kiss, 'cause she's afraid she'll miss
Something from the Movies Review.

I've got the video blues, don't know what to do,
And this could get expensive.
I want a camera to zoom, remote control too,
So I can make home documentaries.
Now they're trying to pass laws about copyrights and all
And taping things off of the tube.
I'd probably be better off if they'd haul this thing off
'Cause I got the video blues.
I'd be so much better off if they'd haul this stuff off
'Cause I got the video blues.

Hey baby, it's me. I'm still here.
Hey, look at me!

I took a job in the city
And I left my country home.
I learned to survive and I got street-wise
But I couldn't tell for how long.
Then I met you where they sing the blues,
Downtown a few months ago.
And you taught me it's still good to believe in love
And I love you so.


I'm makin' some major moves,
Oh city girl, to get to you.
I'm makin' some major moves,
Oh darlin. Major moves just for you.

I sold some things and I bought a ring,
And I've been married before one time.
And this major move just goes to prove
Like they say love is really blind.
Yes I've made a change
And there ain't no one to blame
But me if things don't work out right.
And they just might work out 'cause all I think about
Is that city girl and country boy tonight.

I'm makin' some major moves,
Oh city girl, just for you.
I'm makin' some major moves,
Oh darlin. Major moves to get to you.
I'm makin' some major moves.
Oh darlin' just to get with you.
I'm makin' some major moves,
Oh baby. Major moves to get to you.
Major moves all for you.

Mr. Lincoln I wish you were here.
The Republic's changed a lot in a hundred years.
And I don't think it's working like you planned.
Oh, Mr Lincoln, we could use a hand.

I just read the headlines in The Nashville News.
And I wish I'd made this up but I'm afraid it's true.
'Cause a man was murdered for his money in the streets.
He was taking his wife to a nice place to eat.
When they caught the man he did 23 months of time.
He pled insanity like they do now all the time.
Sir, what would you have done in 1859?
Now if you shoot someone, Sir, you can get off scott-free.
It's the latest thing, Mr. Lincoln, can you believe?
Now they sue the manufacturers of the guns.
Ain't the law changed a lot since 1861?

Mr. Lincoln, I wish you were here.
'Cause things have changed a lot in a hundred years.
And I don't think it's working out like you planned.
Hey, Mr. Lincoln, we sure could use a hand.

I just heard the news story on the radio.
They let dangerous men out of prisons now,
Yes, sir I'm afraid it's so.
'Cause they're overcrowded and it was only his fifth offense.
This time, he's killed someone, does that make any sense?
Now my lawyer called me about a nuisance case.
'Cause everybody sues over any little thing these days.
Well at least we're right.
All we gotta do is tell the truth.
He said "You're living in the past you romantic fool."
I said, "You got that right. I lean toward the older ways.
And there's damn few backwoods lawyers left today."

Mr Lincoln, I wish you were here.
The Republic's changed a lot in a hundred years.
And I don't think it's working like you planned.
Hey, Mr. Lincoln, we sure could use a hand.

Mr. Lincoln, please, could you come here?
'Cause things have changed a lot in a hundred years.
And I don't think it's working out like you planned.
Mr. Lincoln, we sure could use a hand.

I'm sittin' in Knoxville courthouse ain't got a thing to do
I don't wanna go to the movies couldn't if I wanted to cuz I'm on trial for lovin' you
Now this all started in a honky tonk just the other side of town
A girl come in took a stool by me ordered gin and drank it down
She lit up a cigarette sexly turned around
Well she said my name is Jannie and asked me what was mine
I answered Hank as I walked to the jukebox droppin' a dime
checked out her short dress low neck line
Well we danced for five or ten minutes and I held her close to me
Kissed her lips and squeezed her hips and judged about twenty three
Whispered in my ears I said yes siree
Now the scene is a little motel out on the state highway
There in room 12 little love is about to take place
And a state trooper breaks down the door shines a flash light in my face
I said what the hell is this and another man and woman come in
And the girl I'm with starts cryin' and screamin' and she runs over to them
Said thank God you're here he tried to hurt me mama
I said now you don't mean the cop says son the girl is seventeen
So that's why I'm in Knoxville courthouse and the judge passed sentence on me
And it's ten long years for statutory rape in the state penitentiary
Lord I can't believe this is happened to me
So when next time you give a girl the eye she gives you that certain smile
Just remember under that woman's breast may beat the heart of a child
Don't you let yourself be the one to help a mixed up kids go wild
This story happened a lot that's true
But you better hope and pray it never happens to you

Way across town a phone rings off the wall
If you know he ain't home why do you keep callin'
You're gonna drive yourself crazy and you know that it's true
It's just making you wild and blue

Wild and blue it's no wonder
You look at the things that you do
They could just take you up to yonder, honey
You're already wild and blue

In somebody's room on the far side of town
With your minds all made up and the shades all pulled down
Someone is trying just to satisfy you
He don't know you're wild and you're blue

Wild and blue it's no wonder
You look at the things that you do
They could just take you up to yonder, honey
You're already wild and blue

It's four in the morning and you're all alone
With no place to go you know you ought to come home
And I'll be right here little baby waitin' for you
I know you've been wild and blue

Wild and blue and it's no wonder
You look at the things that you do
They could just take you up to yonder, honey
You're already wild and blue
And they ought to just take you up to yonder, honey
You're already wild and blue
