Hank And Patsy S Ghost - Erin Hay

Grab my makeup from the glovebox
Once again I'm runnin' late
As I rush through the front door
The band's already up on stage
They kick off my first song as I walk up to the mike
Another chapter in the story of my honky tonk life
Just another night on Broadway
As one more would be country star
I ask myself the burnin' question
Are the answers in this bar
Well I hang on to my music & I hang on to my dream
And the crowd that hangs out here don't know that when I sing
I sing my songs to Hank & Patsy's ghost
If this bars packed wall to wall or if it's slow
I've heard 'em say I'm better than most, Well I don't know
You'll have to ask Hank & Patsy's ghost
I pay my dues without complaining
Never straying from my plan
I'm on the trail of Hank & Patsy
And this is where I make my stand
Win or lose I'll lift my glass and I'll make a silent toast
To those like me who sing for Hank & Patsy's ghost
I sing my songs to Hank & Patsy's ghost
If this bars packed wall to wall or if it's slow
I've heard 'em say I'm better than most, Well I don't know
You'll have to ask Hank & Patsy's ghost
I've heard 'em say I'm better than most
You'll have to ask Hank & Patsy's ghost
