Hank Williams III - Broke, Lovesick & Driftin' Lyrics






Well I'm broke, lovesick, and driftin'
and I've done a lot of hard, hard livin'
Livin' on the road
and seein' how it goes
I grew up fast and it shows
Cause livin' the nightlife
is where I belong
and drinkin' with the drunks
who don't want to go home
and it's hard, it's rough
but I can't quite get enough
Oh I'm doin' the best that I can
Well I'm broke, lovesick, and driftin'
and I've had my share of good women
I once had a good home,
a wife to call my own,
but now I'm here drunk and alone
Cause livin' the nightlife
is where I belong
and drinkin' with the drunks
who don't want to go home
and it's hard, it's rough
but I can't quite get enough
Oh I'm doin' the best that I can

    I will never forget the first time I heard this album. I lost my job totalled my car and lost my girl all in a row. So I packed up what little I owned and drove from Texas to Arizona to Nevada lost most my money in Vegas kept going to California slept on the beach almost froze to death and caught pneumonia. Woke up the next day and drove 24 hours straight back to Texas felt like death and was never more free in my entire life. Was drunk most the time and listened to this album most the time. Ramblin man for sure. Thanks hank 3

  14. M.... R....

    The only thing that pisses me off is that this is Monetized because of the ads and this isn't an official Hank Sr,Junior or 3rd channel so Hank III makes no money off of this and the cunt running the channel is

  15. J.... A....

  19. J.... D....

    "7 Months, 39 Days"

    Well I'm leavin mississippi
    and im looking for higher ground
    said 7 long months 39 days to turn my ways around

    Well I ain't proud of the things I've done
    so I've got to change it now
    I said 7 long months 39 days to turn my ways around

    I got an 18 wheeler and a worn out dog
    and I ain't got nothing to say to the law
    I got 10 more miles and I'm hittin' that county line
    and I ain't got no more worries on my mind

    Well I'm leavin mississippi
    and im looking for higher ground
    said 7 long months 39 days to turn my ways around

    Well I ain't proud of the things I've done
    so I've got to change it now
    I said 7 long months 39 days to turn my ways around

    Well my worn out jeans didn't fit no more
    had long hair on my back
    I guess that's not the best 'pearance
    to that judge in black

    So he picked up his pen and he put me away
    for a little stretch of time
    I said 7 long months 39 days and never did a crime

    I got an 18 wheeler and a worn out dog
    and I ain't got nothing to say to the law
    I got 10 more miles and I'm hittin' that county line
    and I ain't got no more worries on my mind

    Well I'm leavin mississippi
    and im looking for higher ground
    said 7 long months 39 days to turn my ways around

    Well I ain't proud of the things I've done
    so I've got to change it now
    I said 7 long months 39 days to turn my ways around

    I said 7 long months 39 days to turn my ways around
    I said 7 long months 39 days to turn my ways around
    I said 7 long months 39 days to turn my ways around
    I said 7 long months 39 days to turn my ways around

  20. H.... P....

    Sure and the hell beats 18 and life...
