Willie, Waylon me & Johnny Cash
[Words & music - Bob McNulty]
D D7 G D
I was sittin' home a-lone gettin' myself half stoned
A7
when I decided to put my records on
D D7 G D
I was havin' myself a ball when I heard ol' Tom T. Hall
A7 D
I picked up my gui-tar and I played a-long
D D7 G D
We sang a little country song me & that story tellin' son of a gun
A7
about old dogs & water melon wine
D D7 G D
the last country song was the next song to come on
A7 D
and I remembered the year Clayton Delaney died
D
[Chorus] There was Willie, Waylon me & Johnny Cash
A7
George Jones & Merle Haggard were somethin' else
G D G
then round about half past two Hank Williams moaned the blues
D A7 D
and I found myself drinkin' whiskeys by the glass
[Turnaround]
D D7 G D
Well I really had me a time with my friends & a bottle of 'shine
A7
we played our music til the break of day
D D7 G D
by the time Hank came back on - Lord I was really stoned
A7 D
he moaned the blues but my blues had gone a-way

[Chorus] There was Willie, Waylon me & Johnny Cash
A7
George Jones & Merle Haggard were somethin' else
G D G
then round about half past two Hank Williams moaned the blues
D A7 D
and I found myself drinkin' whiskeys by the glass

[Chorus] There was Willie, Waylon me & J.R. Cash
A7
George Jones & Merle Haggard were somethin' else
G D G
then round about half past two ol' Hank moaned the blues
D A7 D
and I found myself drinkin' whiskeys by the glass

I was a - layin' drunk shakin' Jim Beam by the hand
