After all I'm standing in the shadows of a very famous man

As I travel around from town to town
5
I have a lot of dad's fans and friends come around
6
They say I know Hank would be proud of you if he were here today
7
Now well we're all so glad and we know he would be too
8
That you're carryin' on his music this way
9
Yes they say Hank was the all time great
10
And we know you'll be just as good as your dad

But I just smile and say there'll never be another Hank Williams friends

That's the part that always makes them sad

It's hard standing in the shadows of a very famous man
16
So many times when I'm on that stage I feel something go through me

And for a minute I'm in a different world and that's when it does something to me
18
The people are a hollering and clapping real aloud
19
While I'm out they're taking my bows
20
I look up toward the ceiling and I say to myself listen dad just listen to that crowd
21
But as the show goes on the people clap and holler more
22
I start singing another of your great songs
23
That's the time that I know although you're gone your music will live on and on and on
