Owe Them More Than That

Old Hank was a drifter passing through

He stayed long enough to cry the blues

Acquainted with the bottle, he knew the good Lord too

Hank was drifter passing through

Lefty was an old ragged son

He felt every word he ever sang

And when it came to see him

Lord can show them how it's done

Old Lefty was an old ragged son

They broke the ground on the road that we go down today

Like a train whistle passing, their voices are starting to fade

There are some who sing their phrases, others tip their hats

But it seems like we owe 'em more than that

Marty painted pictures with a song

El Paso made the whole world sing along

With the story of Felina and the Cowboy in her arms

Marty painted pictures with a song

Waylon was the outlaw of our time

Not afraid to lay it on the line

He went against the grain

And he always spoke his mind

Waylon was the outlaw of our time

They broke the ground on the road that we go down today

Like a train whistle passing, their voices are starting to fade

There are some who sing their phrases, others tip their hats

But it seems like we owe 'em more than that

There are some who sing their phrases, others tip their hats

But it seems like we owe 'em more than that

Yeah, it seems like we owe 'em more than that

We all know, we owe 'em more than that

Yeah, we'll do
