You’re the Reason I Never Saw Hank Jnr Play (remastered) Songtext
von Lee Kernaghan

Well, I travelled half way ′round the world to Nashville, Tennessee
To hear the son of Luke the Drifter pick and sing for me
Well, I'd waited half my life to hear Hank Jr.′s country show
But I didn't count on meeting you in the 42nd row

'Cause, honey, you′re the reason I never saw Hank Jr. play
Well, I asked, "Could I buy you a drink?", and we went out by the stage
Well, you came from Alabama and you talked that Southern way
And honey, you′re the reason I never saw Hank Jr. play


Well, he was singin', "Hey, Good Lookin′", and the crowd were goin' wild
But all I saw were blue eyes when you looked at me and smiled
Now, I still love Bocephus, I′m a big fan through and through
But we left Hank and the Bama Band, and I went on home with you

And Honey, you're the reason I never saw Hank Jr. play
Well, somehow we got tangled up, out behind the stage
Well, you came from Alabama and you talked that Southern way
And Honey, you′re the reason I never saw Hank Jr. play

Honey, you're the reason I never saw Hank Jr. play
Well, I asked, "Could I buy you a drink?", we went out by the stage
Well, you came from Alabama and you talked that Southern way
Honey, you're the reason I never
I′m so glad we got together, but
You′re the reason I never saw Hank Jr. play
