Songtext

[Intro]
| G D | A - | A D | A - |

[Verse 1]
A
 Well, I was thumbin' from Montgomery
C
 I had my guitar on my back
D                                          A
 When a stranger stopped beside me in an antique Cadillac
He was dressed like nineteen fifty
     C
Half drunk and holloweyed
                 D
He said, "It's a long walk to Nashville
                 A
Would you like a ride, son?"

[Verse 2]
    Am7
And I  sat down in the front seat,
   C
he turned on the radio
         D
And them sad old songs comin' out of them speakers
    A
Was solid country gold
Then I noticed the stranger was ghostwhite pale
        C
When he asked me for a light
      D                                           A
And I knew there was something strange about this ride

[Chorus]
         G
He said, "Drifter,
                  D                          A
can ya make folks cry when you play and sing?
Have you paid your dues,
can you moan the blues?
        E
Can you bend them guitar strings?"
         G
He said, "Boy,
                   D                    A
can you make folks feel what you feel inside?
                 G                     D
'Cause if you're big star bound let me warn ya,
                  A
it's a long, hard ride"

[Verse 3]
G D
A        A
 Then he cried just south of Nashville
       C
And he turned that car around
        D
He said, "This is where you get off, boy
       A
'Cause I'm goin' back to Alabam'"
As I stepped out of that Cadillac
C
 I said, "Mister, many thanks"
D
 He said, "You don't have to call me Mister,
Mister
    A
The whole world called me Hank"

[Chorus]
         G
He said, "Drifter,
                  D                          A
can ya make folks cry when you play and sing?
Have you paid your dues,
can you moan the blues?
        E
Can you bend them guitar strings?"
         G
He said, "Boy,
                   D                    A
can you make folks feel what you feel inside?
                 G                     D
'Cause if you're big star bound let me warn ya,
                  A
it's a long, hard ride"
         G
He said, "Drifter,
                  D                          A
can ya make folks cry when you play and sing?
Have you paid your dues,
can you moan the blues?
       E
Can you bend them guitar strings?"
         G
He said, "Boy,
                   D                    A
can you make folks feel what you feel inside?
                 G                     D
'Cause if you're big star bound let me warn ya,
                  A
it's a long, hard ride"

[Outro]
          G                     D
If you're big star bound let me warn ya, it's a long,
     A
hard ride
                 G
You know you got a lot of competition out there
D
Now the sound,
                    A
it ain't like it was in the fifty's when I was here
             G
And then you got Waylon Jennings,
D
 Willie Nelson
A                                   G                   D
 You got Clarke and Billy Joe Shaver and David Allan Coe
A
 And you even got my son
