I could live my whole life Without a phone call The likes of which I got today It was only my wife Said hello then goodbye And told me she's going away I didn't cry It was all cut and dry I hung up before I realized I turned up my stereo I walked to the window And stared at the storm clouds outside I play classical music when it rains I play country when I am in pain I won't play Beethoven, cause the mood's just not right I feel like Hank Williams tonight There's no explanation Not even a reason No talk of the good times we had Was it Me was it her I don't know for sure That's why I'm feeling so bad I play jazz when I am confused I play country whenever I lose But Bird's saxophone Just won't sound right I feel like Hank Williams tonight Lately I've been thinkin I just might quit drinkin Now I don't know all in all I just might stay home And get drunk all alone And punch a few holes in the wall When I'm real high I play rock and roll I play country when I'm losin' control I don't play Chuck Berry Quite as much as I'd like But I sure feel like Hank Williams tonight I feel like Hank Williams tonight
