Me & Hank & Jumpin' Jack Flash

Written by Marty Stuart

Last night I dreamed I went to Hillbilly Heaven, oh what a beautiful sight

St. Peter come up to me and he said "now Marty who do you want to see"

So I began to think

I said "why don't you call up old Hank Williams and see if he's free"

'Cause Hank saw the world from a Cadillac

And he carried them Lovesick Blues right on his back

Ah yeah

Sure as I was dreaming, sure as I was born

Around my neck came this long skinny arm

And he said, "Howdy Hoss, my name is Hank, now what brings you here"

So I began to think

I said "Hank brother, you've seen it all.

You've seen 'em come and go and you've seen 'em rise and fall

And right now country music's got more singers than
I believe I've ever seen

So many people got to follow out their dream"

"But I feel different," I said, "'cause I'm a natural born cat

I'm country to the bone, but I don't wear no hat"

Oh no, two three

Said "I started with Lester back in '72

All I wanted to be was a little different like him and you"

He said "whoa now, it just takes a little longer to
make it if you're different, I guess

But you just sing what's in your heart and God's gonna do the rest

Just be what you are at all times and just tell the
folks out there the truth

And that ain't gonna cost you a dime

But if you plan to be different son, you're just rolling the dice

And you know you ain't the first one to pay that price

'Cause there was me and Elvis and there was Bocephus too

There was Waylon and Willie and there was Bill Monroe

And I guess you know about ole Johnny Cash

And I think what the world needs right now is a Jumpin' Jack Flash"

Up in Hillbilly Heaven I saw Keith Whitley, I saw Patsy Cline

I saw Reba McEntire's band, they were all friends of mine

And I began to tremble and I began look

I knew I was dreaming but I just couldn't wake up

Then out of nowhere came this long Cadillac

The driver said "Now come on there Hank we gotta take you back

Thirty minutes before your next show

We're running behind so we gotta go"

He said "Marty, I tell you what you do.

You just go on back down there and you make us proud

And remember wherever you go

There's a little hillbilly in every crowd"

And he got in that old car and he drove off slow

But right here is what he said before he shut that door

Mirror lyrics:

But right here is what he said before he shut that door

And he got in that old car and he drove off slow

There's a little hillbilly in every crowd"

And remember wherever you go

You just go on back down there and you make us proud

He said "Marty, I tell you what you do.

We're running behind so we gotta go"

Thirty minutes before your next show

The driver said "Now come on there Hank we gotta take you back

Then out of nowhere came this long Cadillac

And I began to tremble and I began look

'Cause there was me and Elvis and there was Bocephus too

And you know you ain't the first one to pay that price

But if you plan to be different son, you're just rolling the dice

And that ain't gonna cost you a dime

folks out there the truth
Just be what you are at all times and just tell the

But you just sing what's in your heart and God's gonna do the rest

make it if you're different, I guess
