Old School

I remember a young Johnny Cash waiting in the wings
Cause hed hand me his cigarette when hed go out to sing
And good ole Marshall Tucker Band back in 83
Was a special night they asked me
Come on out and play Cant You See
Dolly was a teenage girl when I first me her wow
Jerry Lee played rock n roll at my house and Im proud
Im from the old school
But I made up my own rules
But I learned a thing or two
From some pretty good teachers
My education has served me well
One look at me and you can tell my musics true
A class reunion of the blues
Im from the old school
Well things were kinda rough at times I had to find my way
Not exactly an overnight sensation like some are today
Hey Im a dinosaur thats for sure but heres what I gotta say
To anyone that questions my credentials Hi, Im Hank
And Im from the old school
But I made up some new rules
And you might learn a thing or two if ya hang around
Ill teach you to write and play n sing em
Take the guitars out and string em
Well make your music true
A class reunion of the blues
Im from the old school
And after all the songs are sang
Lets all stop and have a drink
From my old bar stool
Hey everybody heres to the old school
