Hank's Cadillac Songtext
von Ashley Monroe

I′d have kept him up all night
I wouldn't let him close his eyes
Made him sing "I Saw The Light"
′Til he sobered up again
I'd have kept the coffee strong
Oh, I could have kept him hanging on
If I'd have been in the back of Hank′s Cadillac

We gotta be in Ohio by tomorrow night
Hank, you′ve gotta get up on that stage
You can't let all those good people down
No, it just ain′t right
To book a show and not show up to play


I'd have kept him up all night
I wouldn′t let him close his eyes
Made him sing "I Saw The Light"
'Til he sobered up again
I′d have kept the coffee strong
Oh, I could have kept him hanging on
If I'd have been in the back of Hank's Cadillac

When his hands started trembling and his body turning cold
And death started tugging at his soul
I′d have found one of his songs playing on that AM radio
Held him tight and begged him not to go
I′d have held him tight and begged him not to go

I'd have kept him up all night
I wouldn′t let him close his eyes
Made him sing "I Saw The Light"
'Til he sobered up again
I′d have kept the coffee strong
Oh, I could have kept him hanging on
If I'd have been in the back of Hank′s Cadillac

He'd have lived to play more songs
Oh, I could've kept him hanging on
If I′d have been in the back of Hank′s Cadillac
