Williams Jr., Hank - I'll Never Get Out Of This World Alive Lyrics






Now you're lookin' at a man that's gettin' kind-a mad
I had lot's of luck but it's all been bad
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive.

My fishin' pole's broke the creek is full of sand
My woman run away with another man
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive.

A distant uncle passed away and left me quite a batch
And I was livin'g high until that fatal day
A lawyer proved I wasn't born
I was only hatched.

Ev'rything's agin' me and it's got me down
If I jumped in the river I would prob'ly drown
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive.

These shabby shoes I'm wearin' all the time
Are full of holes and nails
And brother if I stepped on a worn out dime
I bet a nickel I could tell you if it was heads or tails.

I'm not gonna worry wrinkles in my brow
'Cause nothin's ever gonna be alright nohow
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive.

I could buy a Sunday suit and it would leave me broke
If it had two pair of pants I would burn the coat
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive.

If it was rainin' gold I wouldn't stand a chance
I wouldn't have a pocket in my patched up pants
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive.

    d.... ....

    because Hank Jr fell off a mountain. His face is manufactured by surgeons.

    d.... ....

    It's beacuse of Jr's hiking accident so his face doesn't look to close to the same

    d.... ....

    Jr. Fell 500 feet down a mountain side ..AJAX mountain in Montana.
    Had a lot of facial damage . They didn't know if he'd live , let alone ever sing again.
    He said his Sr came to him while he was laying on the side of the mountain and told him to be his own man and do his own music , not to hang on to the past .
    Before the fall Hank Jr did look a lot like Hank Sr.

    +James Lescott that is true and for everyone hating on them just know that they are the three hanks of country music and always will be the kings of the world

    N.... ....

    True on the Hank 3!

    N.... ....

    all three of them are and were drug addicts hank 3 is better off than his heroin addict grandfather and his pill popping dad. but I love them all lol

    N.... ....

    why would you say that? That's fucking harsh. Addiction is a disease. Hank III works harder than you ever will.

    NARDDB if you don't like Hank willims 1 11 or 111 you can kiss my ass or go eat a bag of shit
