"A Country Boy (Who Rolled The Rock Away)" lyrics
"A Country Boy (Who Rolled The Rock Away)"
Hank rode in from Alabam to be a star
Playin' songs he wrote on an ol' flattop guitar
Legend has it he did it his own way
A country boy who rolled the rock away
He was a country boy who rolled the rock away
Turned us on by what he had to say
Though he's dead and gone he's livin' on today
A country boy who rolled the rock away
He stormed out of Lubbock Texas and became
An overnight sensation household name
From Peggy Sue to his last True Love Ways
Just a country boy who rolled the rock away
He was a country boy who rolled the rock away
Turned us on by what he had to say
Though he's dead and gone he's livin' on today
A country boy who rolled the rock away
From Memphis Tennessee in 55
A Tupelo cat brought rock'n roll to life
And that Rockabilly sound it's still around today
He was a country boy who rolled the rock away
He was a country boy who rolled the rock away
Turned us on by what he had to say
Though he's dead and gone he's livin' on today
A country boy who rolled the rock away
Just three old country boys who rolled the rock away
Turned us on by what they had to say
Though they're dead and gone they're livin' on today
They were country boys who rolled the rock away

Someone told the gospel truth
