The Son Of Clayton Delaney
Written and recorded by Tom T. Hall
C F C
On Fourth Street in Louisville in 1978
G7
Stranded in a honky-tonk somewhere 'tween dates
C F C
There was a little band playin' as I sipped my beer
G7 C
But I never thought that I'd hear what I'd hear
F C
There was a young man a pickin' 'lectric guitar
G7
Smokin' and a sniffin' a learnin' how to be a star
C F C
He had a big blue bandanna tied around his head
G7 C
A laid-back bass and a drummer named Red
F C
Well his hair was cut long in the fashion of the time
G7
Sandpaper vocal but he milked every line
C F C
His fingers like lightnin' on the guitar that he played
G7 C
He did Lay Down Sally and Hank Didn't Do It This Way
F C
Well I sat there and listened for over an hour
G7
And the closest thing to country was a rockin' Wildwood Flower
C F C
And I got that feelin' that I had been there before
G7 C
But I knew I had never been through that door
F C
Well the jukebox was turned on and the band took a break
G7
I made my way up front to howdy and shake
C F C
I said son I like your music and I kinda like your style
G7 C
But it seemed to me that I had seen that smile
F C
Well he stood there for a moment then he laughed and he slapped his knee
G7
He said you are one man I've wanted to see
C F C
He said I know you you story tellin' son of a gun
G7 C
And you know me I'm Clayton Delaney's song
