Ones Before Me

[Verse 1]
I wanna raise up a glass
To the legends of the past
Not the junior, but the Hank with a white hat
Wanna turn it up to ten
Dial up some WSM
Maybe hear somethin' from the man in black
Call me faded, call me old school
But I still rock Lucchese boots
When I'm in the mood to go back

[Chorus]
And rewind to a time when Loretta sang her mind
When Waylon and Willie were higher than high
When the band had a steel and the drums, they were real
Oh, the rhinestones in all of its glory
So here's to the ones before me

[Verse 2]
Wanna roll up to the back door
Slam that Cadillac door
My hair, I'm gonna tease it to Jesus
Find a man who looks like Elvis
Not the Hollywood, the Memphis
Kiss him 'til he falls to pieces

[Chorus]
And rewind to a time when Loretta sang her mind
When Waylon and Willie were higher than high
When the band had a steel and the drums, they were real
Oh, the rhinestones in all of its glory
So here's to the ones before me
Yeah, here's to the ones before me

[Bridge]
The oldies were goodies
From Tammy to Twitty
Make cheatin' sound pretty
Damn, it still gets me

[Chorus]
And rewind to a time when Loretta sang her mind
When Waylon and Willie were higher than high
When the band had a steel and the drums, they were real
Oh, the rhinestones in all of its glory
All the whiskey and wild west stories
Yeah, here's to the ones before me

[Outro]
Yeah, yeah
Woo, alright
