My Name Is Bocephus Lyrics


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 allNow, 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 boundNow, I'm looking for a lover
And I'm looking for some fun
My name is Bocephus
I'm a son of a gunSome of us are born with it
Some of us don't ever, ever get it
Thank God I'm a guitar manAnd 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 bandNot 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 bluesNow, 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 gunSome of us are born with it
Some of 'em don't ever, ever get it
Thank God I'm a guitar manOh, 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 bandOh boy
Ain't no rookies on this record
I say my name is B O C E P H U S, oh, yeah

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Born on May 26, 1949 in Shreveport, Louisiana, Hank Williams Jr. nicknamed "Bocephus" by his father after opry comedian's Rod Brasfield ventriloquist dummy started his musical career at the age of eight, making appearances in tv shows singing the classical songs of his father, making his official artist debut in 1963 singing "Long Gone Lonesome Blues".
Besides the music of his father, Hank Williams, Bocephus was also influenced by Johnny Cash, Earl Scruggs, Fats Domino and Jerry Lee Lewis.
