Make That Guitar Talk

well the first time i ever heard Hank
i can thank
my grandpa for that
he turned me on
to that out law song
and i aint never made it back
it spoke to me
grabbed a hold
down deep in my soul
and never let go
oh

they use to make that guitar talk
wasnt about being some hot shot
no
back when the music came first
and they meant every word
that you heard
that was a long time ago
but i know
theres someone
some where
out there
that can walk the walk
and make that guitar talk

i'm so sick of everything sounding the same
these days
i think its time for a little change
i know music sure has come a long way
with how folks play
but

they use to make that guitar talk
wasnt about being some hot shot
no
back when the music came first
and they meant every word
that you heard
that was a long time ago
but i know
theres someone
some where
out there
that can walk the walk
and make that guitar talk

well i aint tryin to hate
but all this cross over pop stuff
well i've heard enough
i sure and then hell know Hank didnt do it this way
so can we please go back to the good ole days
