Thunderhead Hawkins Lyrics

I know a cabin down there in Tennessee

 Where you can't find the forest on account of the trees

 And Old Perry Foster he got something to say

 And you can smell the pigs cuz' they been cookin' all day

 

 [CHORUS]

 

 I don't need no critics

 I don't need no suits

 I just need somebody who can tell me the truth

 You can keep your opinions

 You can keep on walkin'

 I'm gonna raise my glass yeah to Thunderhead Hawkins

 

 [REPEAT TWICE]

 

 Miss Mary Jane she always looks like a star

 But the rock n roll banker likes to sleep in his car

 You won't hear no opry you'll hear six strings

 And you won't know what to do when you hear Thunderhead sing

 

 [REPEAT CHORUS]

 

 Now Mr. Hawkins got a family tree

 He got that their legendary cabin down in Tennessee

 You know he'll hook up that guitar everybody gather round

 You stay close to the fire when the sun goes down

 Old Brother Merle he's always waiting in the wings

 Only man up in them woods wearin' all them gold rings

 Old Mr. Hawkins he won't do nobody wrong

 But he'll he'll tear your heart out with one sad song

 

 [REPEAT CHORUS]
