Stonewall Jackson - Here's to Hank lyrics

Once lived a man that was an inspiration To country music to the entire nation I used his songs to learn upon There's many friends to thank Like Ernest Tubb or George D. Hay Wes Rose and here's to Hank I used to sit around at night With my old beat up guitar And I'd wonder how it felt to be A country music singing star I've heard Hank Williams many times Till I learned his songs by heart They've got me jobs when I was broke And that helped me to get my start As God looks down on me I hope That he's pleased I've worked so hard Yes, it's true a man can sleep at night That has worked until he's tired Success is smilin' down on my head And to all my sincere thanks E.T., Wes Rose and George D. Hay He's gone but here's to Hank
