Back When He Was Hungry - Bill Anderson (比尔·安德森)[00:00:00]

Written by：Bill Anderson[00:00:03]

He came to town with a lot of dreams[00:00:05]

And four strings on his Gibson[00:00:08]

He swore someday the world of country news[00:00:10]

Would be his own[00:00:14]

He drove a beat up Chevy truck[00:00:16]

And he didn't have no money[00:00:19]

But he was such a good ole boy[00:00:21]

Back when he was hungry[00:00:24]

He wrote some songs and walked the streets[00:00:28]

Beggin' folks to listen[00:00:31]

Sometimes he crawled just like a snake[00:00:33]

Without a pit to hiss in[00:00:36]

He looked like Garth and sang like Hank[00:00:39]

And everybody loved him[00:00:42]

He swore he'd never change a thing[00:00:44]

Back when he was hungry[00:00:47]

Back when bmi and cma were only letters[00:00:51]

And rr was what you took[00:00:56]

To get to feeling better[00:00:59]

And billboard was a road sign[00:01:02]

Not a chart that came on Monday[00:01:05]

Life was oh so simple thing[00:01:08]

Back when he was hungry[00:01:11]

And then one day he wrote a song[00:01:20]

That got someone's attention[00:01:23]

The ar at bmg got[00:01:26]

Joe to listen[00:01:29]

Then Joe called James and James called Don[00:01:32]

Don called Mrs Hilley[00:01:35]

And Oermann wrote he's gonna be[00:01:37]

The next big hot hillbilly[00:01:40]

Well his record went to number one[00:01:44]

And the good ole boy went crazy[00:01:46]

He hired a band then fired a band[00:01:49]

He toured and then got lazy[00:01:51]

Suddenly he knew it all[00:01:55]

The rest of us were dummies[00:01:58]

He scarcely could remember[00:02:00]

Back when he was hungry[00:02:03]

Well he married[00:02:07]

And then he got divorced[00:02:08]

And met this cute young honey[00:02:09]

He thought she craved his body[00:02:12]

But she only craved his money[00:02:14]

She cleaned out his bank account[00:02:18]

Then ran off with his drummer[00:02:21]

Left him where he started from[00:02:23]

Back when he was hungry[00:02:26]

Well he lost his deal and life got real[00:02:30]

And he had to give up pickin'[00:02:32]

Swapped BMG for KFC[00:02:35]

And now he's frying chicken[00:02:38]

But he held on to his faded dreams[00:02:41]

His jeans and cowboy hat[00:02:44]

He still leans in that microphone[00:02:46]

You want some fries with that[00:02:49]

The last time that I saw him[00:02:53]

He was singin' down at tootsie's[00:02:55]

A big tattoo on both his arms[00:02:58]

And his earring was a beauty[00:03:01]

He said I'm goin' rock' n roll[00:03:05]

Those guys make all the money[00:03:07]

From now on you can call me[00:03:10]

The artist formerly known[00:03:12]

As[00:03:16]

Hungry[00:03:17]
