Luke the Drifter

Is he here? Can it be? Straight from Nashville, Tennessee Luke the Drifter or a mortal shape shifter. Hank come here is it really you? your tearful words helped me through. Did really write all those songs about Miss Audrey and the man who done her wrong? You smell like beer and your trail leaves behind a single tear. You look grim and reek of fear. Your skinny face leaves a trace of weakness. I suddenly woke up! Dedicated To Hank Williams 1923-1953 R.I.P.
