Lyrics Hank Williams Jr.

Hank Williams Jr.

My Name Is Bocephus

I just came in here to have some whiskey and beer

And to say howdy to you all

You all know me, this is Hank Williams, Jr. you see

Hat and shade beard and all

Now, I have heard, mmm, hmm, I've gotten' the word

About all these silly imposter's running 'round

Let me tell you something now they ain't real

They ain't got no scars, they ain't got no feel

Why they don't know nothing about whiskey bent and hell bound

Now, I'm looking for a lover

And I'm looking for some fun

My name is Bocephus

I'm a son of a gun

Some of us are born with it

Some of us don't ever, ever get it

Thank God I'm a guitar man

And it's true I love the money

And it's true I love all the honeys

But the thing I really love

Is to get down with the band

Not everybody loves me but those that do will fight

Right to the end they're guitar friends from legendary Saturday nights

I learned something from Lynyrd Skynyrd

From my Daddy and Ernest Tubb too

I do country rock, I do blues

Now, I'm looking for a lover

And I'm going to have some fun

Oh my name is Bocephus

'Ell, I'm a son of a gun

Some of us are born with it

Some of 'em don't ever, ever get it

Thank God I'm a guitar man

Oh, it's true I love the money

And I really, really love the honeys

But the thing I really love

Is to get down with the band

Oh boy

Ain't no rookies on this record

I say my name is B O C E P H U S, oh, yeah
