Family Tradition
Lyricist:Hank Jr Williams
Alternative country singers have always been a real close family But lately some of my kinfolks have disowned a few others and me I guess it's because I kind of changed my direction Lord, I guess I went and broke their family tradition
Why do you drink? Why do you roll smoke? Why must you live out the songs that you wrote? Stop and think it over, try to put yourself in this position When I get stoned I'm just carryin' on an old family tradition
Now I am very proud of my daddy's name Although his kind of music and mine ain't exactly the same Stop and think it over, try to put yourself in my position When I get stoned and sing all night long it's just a family tradition
Why do you drink? Why do you roll smoke? Why must you live out them songs that you wrote? If I'm down in a honky-tonk and some old slicks Tryin' to gimme some friction I say, 'Leave me alone, I'm stayin' all night long Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com With these winged lizards'
Let's go Johnny, winged lizards I see them
Lordy, I have loved some ladies and I have loved Jim Beam But them and a winged lizard tried to kill me in '73 When that doctor asks me, 'Son, how'd ya get in this condition?' I says, 'Hey Sawbones, I'm just carryin' on the old family tradition'
Why do you drink? Why do you roll smoke? Why must you live out them songs that you wrote? Stop and think it over try to put yourself in my unique position When I get stoned and sing all night long, it's just a family tradition
Why do you drink? Why do you roll smoke? Why must you live out them songs that you wrote? Stop and think it over try to put yourself in my unique position When I get stoned and sing all night long, it's just a family tradition
