Jerry Jeff Walker — I Feel Like Hank Williams Tonight

[Verse 1] Well, I could live my whole life Without a phone call The likes of which I got today It was only my wife Said hello then goodbye And told me she's goin' away Well, I didn't cry It was all cut and dry I hung up before I realized I turned up my stereo I walked to the window And stared at the storm clouds outside [Chorus] And I play classical music when it rains I play country when I am in pain But I won't play Beethoven 'cause the mood's just not right Oh, I feel like Hank Williams tonight [Verse 2] There's no explanation Not even a reason No talk of the good times we had Was it me? Was it her? I don't know for sure And that's why I'm feeling so bad [Chorus] Hey, I play jazz when I am confused I play country whenever I lose Bird's saxophone, it just don't seem right And I feel like Hank Williams tonight [Verse 3] Well, lately, I've been thinkin' I just might quit drinkin' Now I don't know all in all I just might stay home And get drunk all alone Punch a few holes in the wall [Chorus] 'Cause when I'm real high, I play rock and roll I play country when I'm losin' control I don't play Chuck Berry quite as much as I'd like But I feel like Hank Williams tonight I feel like Hank Williams tonight
