Hank And George Lefty And Me [ with George Jones ]

Some men never get their lives together
Born to lose seems to be their destiny
Tormented all their lives by unseen leaving
Men like Hank and George Lefty and me

We know how it's like to wake up crying
And need a drink to help us go to sleep
Oh there's a hell here on earth I ain't lying
For Hank and George Lefty and me
[ steel ]
Every woman we've ever loved drove us crazy
Ain't that way Tom it always seems to be
When God passed out mercy he passed over
Hank and Lefty me and old TC

So we learned to set our heartaches to music
And our tears in some melodies
You die young when you're living what you're singing
Like Hank and George Lefty and me
Like old Hank and Lefty and me and old TC
