Lyrics Hank Williams Jr.

Hank Williams Jr.

I Ain't Goin' Peacefully

Garth and Clint and Alan

Them boys have got it made

Cut their teeth on whiskey bent

And they're tryin' to put me in the shade

I can tell you they've done a good job

'Cause it's been a long dry spell

But the day you think I'm gonna quit

That'll be a cold day in the well

Because I ain't goin' peacefully

I'll be up there swingin'

Just trying to make a hit

And havin' a little bit of fun while I'm singing

No I ain't goin' peacefully

Yes I'm gonna put up a fight

I've been known to take a chance

And make people dance and stomp their boots all night

Travis and Aaron and John Michael

I'm glad I got to see them shine

I've been a lucky man

To have them as friends of mine

Garth says he's made more money now

Than his grandkids can ever spend

Well, my ex-wife spent what I had

That makes me one fightin' mad man

And so I ain't goin' peacefully

I'll be up there swingin'

I'm just trying to make a hit

And be sure and have a little bit of fun when I'm singing

No I ain't goin' peacefully

I'm gonna put up a fight

I've been known to take a chance

And make people dance and stomp their boots all night

No I ain't goin' peacefully

I'm gonna kick and fight

I've been known to take a chance

And make the people dance and stomp their boots all night

Yes sir

Swing your dress and stomp their boots all night
