I Just Don't Like This Kind of Livin' Songtext
Hoo, thanks a lot, friends
Well, it doesn′t matter much what part of the country you happen to be in right now
Because no matter where you are it's darn good that the jukebox
In the middle place down the street has at least one recording on it by tonight′s guest
He's my popular guy right now and deserves every bit of his popularity
So folks, let's get him out here right now, the ol′ lovesicks
Lovesick blues boy, Hank Williams, get it up (thank you, man)
Hank Williams seems much your regular buddy
Of course that means you′ve been out of some personal appearances
Bid mind us tell us where you've been?
Be glad to. Been driving around, meeting lots of folks
Mostly out in the west. Texas, Oklahoma and Louisiana
Good people down there, fine folks (fine)
Well, sir, now we′ve got you hogtied here, Hank
How about you sing us that new one of your's that′s going so big all over the country called
"I just don't like this kind of living"
Appreciated, you′ll like it
I just don't like this kind of livin'
I′m tired of doin′ all the givin'
Well, I give my all and sit and yearn
And get no lovin′ in return
And I just don't like this kind of livin′
Why do we stay together?
We always fuss and fight
You ain't never known to be wrong
And I ain′t never been right
Tell me where you think we're goin'
′Cause I ain′t got no way of knowin'
When things go wrong, you go your way
You leave me here to pay and pay
And I just don′t like this kind of livin'
I just don′t like the things you're doin′
Your evil heart will be your ruin
When things start runnin' smooth and free
You haul right off and you pick on me
And I just don't like this way of livin′
They say the road of love is long
It′s rocky and it's rough
But if this road don′t start to get smooth
I've traveled it long enough
Why don′t you act a little older
And get that chip off of your shoulder?
Well, I've told you once, now I′ll tell you twice
You better start to treat me nice
'Cause I just don't like this way of livin′
Oh, thank you a lot for this, Hank, thank you very much
Thanks a lot to you, we gonna, we gonna have Hank back here
We gonna get it back here just in few minutes
He′s got another song for you, friends
Old Hank's is always well liked enough when we have him here
Say, Hank, we′re expecting you back here in two minutes
So don't get too far away there, alright buddy?
Well, it doesn′t matter much what part of the country you happen to be in right now
Because no matter where you are it's darn good that the jukebox
In the middle place down the street has at least one recording on it by tonight′s guest
He's my popular guy right now and deserves every bit of his popularity
