Alabama - Are You Sure Hank Done It This Way Lyrics






Lord it's the same old tune fiddle and guitar
Where do we take it from here
Rhinestone suits and new shiny cars
It's been the same way for years
We made the change

Somebody told us when we came to Nashville
Boys you really got it made
Old Hank made it here we're all sure that you will
But I don't think Hank done it this a'way
I don't think Hank done it this a'way, nah

Been years on the road working one night stands
Speeding my young life away
Yeah tell me one more time just so I'll understand
Are you sure Hank done it this a'way
Did ol' Hank really do it this a'way?

Yeah I've seen the world with a four piece band
Looking sideways at me
Singing our songs want to hear us now and then
But I don't think Hank done 'em this a'way
No I don't think Hank done 'em this a'way, yeah

No I don't think Hank done 'em this a'way

Yeah I don't think Hank done 'em this a'way

Alabama Are You Sure Hank Done It This Way Comments
  1. D.... A....

    You I didn't like this song when waylon did it

  3. E.... M....

    Wow; you guys, ALABAMA, Can sing anything & it sounds GREAT!!! Love it!!!

  4. S.... ....

    I absolutely love this BAND. I'm 49 yrs old. I've grew up with these guys. My Dad married a woman whose father worked at RCA, she was able to obtain all of their music. And I was able to obtain their talent playing there music on the radio. Thanks for those memories fellas. Now I'm worried about you. NEVER have you had to play other people songs to gain fans. Your talent and focus, and your strive forward was all we needed. Your music was the best. Maybe it's the writers whose passed on perhaps. But guys, you're still full of that talent. I liked this song, but you don't need other people's music to be found again. PLAY YOUR OLD STUFF AT TIMES... FOCUS ON THAT MUSIC,, And make more PLEASE! Your fan for life.
    Snowman.
    Ps. I also play. I can't play your music like you guys play, so I Karaoke'd a few songs to show my talent on Vocals. Have a listen see what you taught me. LOVE YOU ALL.

  7. J.... K....

    Classis song's are timeless. This is one of many.

  8. s.... D....

    alabama will not be forgotten. I just wish someday this group could back to the settle.

  9. S.... B....

    Damn I swear if I wasn't looking at the video I'd argue that that's not Randy. I'm a little hesitant to say it but I'm afraid it's coming off like one of those cheap dollar store compilation cds that say in the style of Waylon Jennings.

  10. A.... G....

    It sounds amazing i love it

  11. m.... m....

    letter roll

  12. D.... H....

    And hank didn’t apologize for the confederate flag either. Sellouts

    D.... H....

    Doc Holiday I don’t think Alabama did. Their manager sold out on it but when they interviewed the singers they said that it is heritage. It is sad that they put up with their manager doing that tho.

  13. R.... G....

    Love it 2019

  14. T.... D....

    Pretty, good boys. Ain't Hanks way, but pretty good.

  28. F.... ....

    love Alabama and Waylon... and miss real country

    F.... ....

    I can understand that. I often find myself longing for the country music of my youth as well. Waylon, Willie, Alabama, Merle, Hank jr, Patty Lovelace, Judds, Tayna, Ledoux, Conway, Jones & The Bellamy brothers just to name a few off the top of my head. There is a ton more that I haven't named that are equally important like Cash, Roy Clark. I must stop or I will be here for the rest of the evening 😊.

  29. R.... B....

    Real people.thats why you have real music.love nashville.

  30. R.... B....

    There's been no upbringing that's why new music sucks.

  31. R.... B....

    I don't know how brad p. Got the gig.oh yeah maybe I do.ha,ha,you don't where a belt.

  32. R.... B....
