It's About Time - Hank Williams Jr.

I’m going back where I made tracks

In my boyhood days on gran-daddy's land

The family ties that bind

Hope I can still find

My mother joins in the red playback sand

The next stop on my quest

Place I still love the best

Alabama river bank now I see the lights

Although Montgomery town

Let’s put the hammer down

We going down the lost highway tonight, yeah

It’s about time for some country songs

It’s about time to play some southern rock to the bone

Cause we’ve had enough of this weird pop country sound

On my guitar, brothers and sisters come, and gather around

A country state of mind

We’ll pass a little musky vine wine

Yeah I’m telling you it’s about time (time, it’s about time)

I watched Waylon and Merle

They were the kings of the world

Far as I was concerned, and then he changed

Thanks to Jerry Lee

Johnny and Jim, Hank and Miss Audrey

Hey, I’ve done my share of crying

It’s about time

It’s about time for some country songs

It’s about time to play some southern rock all night long

Cause we’ve had enough of this weird pop country sound

On my guitar, brothers and sisters come, and gather around

A country state of mind (country state of mind)

It’s 1976 in the mind

Hey I’m telling you it’s about time (time, it’s about time)

I pulled a Bobby Mercer on that mother
