Standing In The Shadows Lyrics - Hank Williams Jr.

I know that I'm not great and some say I imitate 

Anymore I don't know I'm just doing the best I can 

After all I'm standing in the shadows of a very famous man 

As I travel around from town to town 

I have a lot of dad's fans and friends come around 

They say I know Hank would be proud of you if he were here today 

Now well we're all so glad and we know he would be too 

That you're carryin' on his music this way 

Yes they say Hank was the all time great 

And we know you'll be just as good as your dad 

But I just smile and say there'll never be another Hank Williams friends 

That's the part that always makes them sad

Yes I know that I'm not great and some say I imitate 

Anymore I don't know I'm just doing the best I can 

It's hard standing in the shadows of a very famous man 

So many times when I'm on that stage I feel something go through me 

And for a minute I'm in a different world and that's when it does something to me 

The people are a hollering and clapping real aloud 

While I'm out they're taking my bows 

I look up toward the ceiling and I say to myself listen dad just listen to that crowd 

But as the show goes on the people clap and holler more 

I start singing another of your great songs 

That's the time that I know although you're gone your music will live on and on and on
