Hank Williams III - River (They Call Me the Mississippi)

I've been here longer and I'm stronger and I've seen as much as any man Now many's crossed me but none have bossed me and I don't believe they ever can Hello son I see you're wearin' a gun and you say you're on your way into town You say your Ma told you not to but you feel you got to Get that man that gunned your daddy down From the sheriff's office to the gallows boy that's a mighty mighty short walk So why you worry your horse son let you and I take it easy and have a little talk Cause I've been here longer...Well I can see that you're angry and I guess you've got plenty right to be But the law can handle your daddy's killer much better than you or me And remember your promise you made your mother That you never would fought on a gun So go on home to her boy cause she needs you she wouldn't stand to lose her only son Well I see you thought it over and I'm glad to see you going home boy And you wanna know what they call me Well I'm just the river they call me the Mississippi I've been here longer...
