Williams Jr., Hank - I Ain't Goin' Peacefully Lyrics






Garth and Clint and Alan
Them boys have got it made
Cut their teeth on whiskey bent
And they're tryin' to put me in the shade

I can tell you they've done a good job
'Cause it's been a long dry spell
But the day you think I'm gonna quit
That'll be a cold day in the well

Because I ain't goin' peacefully
I'll be up there swingin'
Just trying to make a hit
And havin' a little bit of fun while I'm singing

No I ain't goin' peacefully
Yes I'm gonna put up a fight
I've been known to take a chance
And make people dance and stomp their boots all night

Travis and Aaron and John Michael
I'm glad I got to see them shine
I've been a lucky man
To have them as friends of mine

Garth says he's made more money now
Than his grandkids can ever spend
Well, my ex-wife spent what I had
That makes me one fightin' mad man

And so I ain't goin' peacefully
I'll be up there swingin'
I'm just trying to make a hit
And be sure and have a little bit of fun when I'm singing

No I ain't goin' peacefully
I'm gonna put up a fight
I've been known to take a chance
And make people dance and stomp their boots all night

No I ain't goin' peacefully
I'm gonna kick and fight
I've been known to take a chance
And make the people dance and stomp their boots all night
Yes sir

Swing your dress and stomp their boots all night

    Hank for president 2020

  2. J.... T....

    I'm a huge fan of Hank Jr and his music it's awesome

  3. S.... ....

    I would pay money to hear a conversation between Alan and Hank. It's crazy to hear guys that are now old and considered legends talked about when they were first starting

  4. B.... B....

    I miss Bocephus on the radio!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  5. R.... B....

    The only one he name-drops who he probably actually hates was Garth, all the old-school country guys couldn't stand him. Hank during a drunk performance even told Garth to blow him.

    R.... B....

    Why didn't they like him?

    R.... B....

    They were probably queers and he wasn’t

  6. A.... M....

    Hi there Hank.. I was the one at Tulare fairgrounds, when Hank gave away his Harley who got the people up to dance. Then security started over and Hank started singing this song... Love ya' man of steel

  7. K.... P....

    How come he didn't name-drop Mark Chesnutt, Tim McGraw and Toby Keith? He name-dropped every hot country singer at the time that had been influenced by his music! (I can imagine the line "I'll be up there swingin'" either refers to the John Anderson hit, or Garth's famous rope swing at his shows)

  8. A.... M....

    'Yes sir' Hank, 1991? Hog Wild tour in Tulare, CA. Concert was dead so I "took a chance' got up and 'made the people dance' until security started over so Hank started playing 'I ain't goin peacefully' Whoo! 😊🤣

  9. D.... N....

    God I hope I get to meet and shake his hand this is good country
