Lord, it's the same old thing
Fiddle and guitar
Where do we take it from here?
Rhinestone suits new shiny car
Well, It's been the same way for years
It's bound to change

Somebody told me when I came to Nashville
"Son you finally got it made"
Ole Waylon made it here and we're all sure that you will
But I don't think Waylon done it this way
No, I don't think Waylon done it this way

Ten years on the road making one night stands
Speeding my young life away
Tell me one more time just so's I'll understand
Are you sure Waylon done it this way?
Did ole Waylon done it this way?

I've seen the world with an eight piece band
Looking at the back side of me
Singing my songs one of his now and then
But I don't think Waylon done it this way
No, I don't think Waylon done it this way

Woke up this morning, it was drizzin' rain
Around the curve come a long black train
Heard somebody yodel and a hobo moan
Jimmy he's dead he's been a long time gone

Yeah
(Woop, woop, woop)
