Alabama – Hats Off

Hats Off

Alabama

Album: Greatest Hits, Vol. 2

The stage is set tonight down in Nashville

It’s been a long, hard ride into town

And thanks to some cowboys and heroes

My chance to sing has finally come around

The first song I ever sang was Haggard

Momma sang to me “I Saw The Light”

I’d turn my radio up louder

To hear Johnny Cash “Walk The Line”

Oh Waylon sang a song about Texas

Willie’s “Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain”

Bocephus sings a song about dixie

And Lefty taught us all how to sing

Hats off to hard riding cowboys

Riding somewhere tonight

Hats off to hard riding cowboys

Wanted, dead or alive

Well Charlie ran the devil out of Georgia

Skynyrd sang “Sweet Home Alabama”

The Allman Brothers taught us how to ramble

And The Tucker Boys showed us how to jam

Hats off to hard riding cowboys

Riding somewhere tonight

Hats off to hard riding cowboys

Wanted, dead or alive

Well the stage is set tonight up in Heaven

Reba’s band is there with Patsy Cline

And all around there’s cowboys and cowgirls

And thanks to them the music’s still alive

Hats off to hard riding cowboys

Flying somewhere tonight

Hats off to hard flying cowboys

Wanted, dead or alive
