If You Can't Help Your Own - Hank Williams III

I was raised by myself down in Arkansas

My family had some rich folks' but they’d never call

If they wanna be that way well that’s fine with me

Cause I ain’t got a thing to say to a man filled with greed

Well if you can’t even help your own

Well my friend your gonna be all alone

Well I’m real down to earth

And I know just how it hurts

To be in a bind, just tryin to stay alive

Well I can drink and I can cuss

And I can be pretty dog-dawn tuff

I like to stay up all night just to see that big sun rise, and light-up my life

You better keep your eyes on whats goin on

With the government today, cause there doin us wrong

They took the farm away from my poor grandad

And I never will forgive them for doin that

Well if you can’t even help your own

Well my friend your gonna be all alone

Well if you can’t even help your own
