Guys Named Hank by benjamindavid published on 2020-07-07T16:14:19Z My friend Deiter Wiese (click on his link here to hear more of his music) and I co-wrote this song. We happened to be staying at the same place in Inuvik on night and were discussing songs to cover for an upcoming gig. We commented on how many "Hank" country singers there used to be and suddenly the idea of "Guys Named Hank" was born. SO while dinner cooked we created and came up with this tune. Deiter has a recording of it as well more in a bluesy style which I love. My style tends more toward dirty alt country and so here is my version. ENJOY!! Here is Deiter's link: https://soundcloud.com/user-4129578-324336225 Guys named hank Never did no wrong They kept their notes and tears Right where they belonged Three chords and a heartache In every song With a name like hank You can’t go wrong She thought my cheatin heart Was pure as snow Down a long lost highway I saw the lights of home And like a rambling man I Been gone I know She thought my cheating heart Was pure as snow* Guys named hank Never did no wrong They kept their notes and tears Right where they belonged Three chords and a heartache In every song With a name like hank You can’t go wrong A real good gal Is hard to find Can’t have the blues All the time I was born to lose But she changed my mind A real good gal Is hard to find Chorus Instrumental Bridge: We ain’t dissing on cash We ain’t hating on Lyle We ain’t smashin Nelson We love Waylon’s style We can to rock to Presley Conway Twitty and Cline * But it’s the guys named hank Won’t never leave our minds 3.
