Good Old Boys Like Me - Don Williams (唐·威廉姆斯)
When I was a kid uncle remus he put me to bed
With a picture of stonewall jackson above my head
Then daddy came in to kiss his little man
With gin on his breath and a bible in his hand
He talked about honor and things I should know
Then he staggered a little as he went out the door
I can still hear the soft southern winds
In the live oak trees
And those williams boys
They still mean a lot to me hank and tennessee
I guess we're all gonna be what we're gonna be
So what do you do with good old boys like me
Nothing makes a sound in the night like the wind does
But you ain't afraid
If you're washed in the blood like I was
The smell of cape jasmine through the window screen
John r and the wolfman kept me company
By the light of the radio by my bed
With thomas wolfe whispering in my head
I can still hear the soft southern winds
In the live oak trees
And those williams boys
They still mean a lot to me hank and tennessee
I guess we're all gonna be what we're gonna be
So what do you do with good old boys like me
When I was in school I ran with a kid down the street
And I watched him burn himself
Up on bourbon and speed
But I was smarter than most and I could choose
Learned to talk like the man on the six o'clock news
When I was eighteen lord I hit the road
But it really doesn't matter how far I go
I can still hear the soft southern winds
In the live oak trees
And those williams boys
They still mean a lot to me hank and tennessee
I guess we're all gonna be what we're gonna be
So what do you do with good old boys like me
What do you do with good old boys like me
