I never said I was an outlaw
Though people say I am
A E
That some mighty big shoes to fill and I don't think I ever will
B E
But I'll do the best I can
E
Just because I get a little crazy
And I have been busted by the man
A
And this here music that I'm playin'
E
Well ain't none of that makes me Waylon
B E
But I'll do the best I can
A
I've got that hard drivin' music
E
Runnin' through my veins
A
I love to turn it up
B A
And bend them guitar strings
E
Does the man make the music
Does the music make the man
A
I'll never be no Shaver
E
Or write the hits like Willie can
B
I never said I was an outlaw
D A E
But I'm doin' the best I can

Well I've heard all about Bocephus
Goin' back to Sweet Home Alabam
A E
Just to play his kind of music and that I understand

When it comes down to it Hank
A E
I'll do the best I can
Chorus:
A
I've got that hard drivin' music

But I'm doin' the best that I can.
