Standing In The Shadows(Album Version) - Hank Williams Jr.

作词：Hank Williams Jr.

作曲：Hank Williams Jr.

I know that I'm not great

and some say I imitate

Anymore I don't know

I'm just doin' the best I can

After all I'm standin' in the

shadows of a very famous man

As I travel around town to town

I have a lot of dad's fans and

friends come around

They say I know hank would be

proud of you if he were here today

While we're all so glad and we

know he would be too

That you're carryin' on his music this way

Yes they say hank was the all time great

And we know you'll be

just as good as your dad

But I just smile and say there'll never

be another hank Williams friends

That's the part that always

makes them sad

Yes I know that I'm not great

and some say I imitate

Anymore I don't know

I'm just doin' the best I can

It's hard standin' in the shadows

of a very famous man

So many times when I'm on that stage

I feel something go through me

And for a minute

I'm in a different world

And that's when it

does something to me

The people are a hollerin'

and clappin' real loud

While I'm out they're taking my bows

I look up toward the

ceiling and I say to myself

Listen dad just listen to that crowd

But as the show goes on the

people clap and holler more

I start to sing another

of your great songs

That's the time that I know

although you're gone

Your music will live on and on and on
