Better You Sound Lyrics

Written By Thomas K White (BMI)

[1] Used to listen to old Hank as a kid…
I tried to sing like him… but never did…
Always wondered why… he sounded so blue…
Too young to understand…what he’d been through…

[2] Yeah at twenty nine…I’ve been through a lot…
Heartbroken…lost loved ones…and almost shot…
Fairly often…this world has knocked me around…
The older I get Hank…the better you sound…

CHORUS
The older I get Hank…the better you sound…
I turn you up… when…I’m feeling down…
Each year…. your songs…make more sense to me…
Still singing those sad songs…in Tennessee…

[Music Channel]

[3] Seems the world…. is getting rougher each day..
Makes you listen…. to what he had to say…
A lot smarter man than me… at this age…
Left us waiting…. to read…another page…

CHORUS
The older I get Hank…the better you sound…
I turn you up…. when…I’m feeling down…
Each year…. your songs…make more sense to me…
Still singing those sad songs…in Tennessee…

TAG: Yeah singing those sad songs in Tennessee…
