BLAKE SHELTON
"The Conversation"
feat. Adam Wakefield

[Adam Wakefield:]
Well, Hank, let's talk about your daddy
Tell me how your mama loved that man
[Blake Shelton:]
Well, just break out a bottle, hoss
I'll tell ya' 'bout the drifting cowboy band
And the man
[Adam Wakefield:]
Well, we won't talk about the habits
[Both:]
Just the music and the man

[Adam Wakefield:]
Well now, Hank, you just gotta tell me
Did your daddy really write all them songs

[Spoken:]
Well, did he?
[Blake Shelton:]
Well, that don't deserve no answer, hoss
Let's light up and just move along
[Adam Wakefield:]
Do you think he wrote 'em about your mama
About the man who done her wrong?

[Both:]
Yeah, back then they called him crazy
Nowadays they call him a saint
Yeah, now the ones that called him crazy
[Blake Shelton:]
Are still ridin' on his name

[Adam Wakefield:]
Well, if he was here right now, Bocephus
Would he think that we were right?

[Spoken:]
Do you think he might?
[Blake Shelton:]
Don't you know he would, watashi
Be right here by our side
[Adam Wakefield:]
If we left for a show in Provo
Be the first one on the bus and ready to ride

[Both:]
Yeah, back then they called him crazy
Nowadays they call him a saint
[Blake Shelton:]
Most folks don't know that
[Both:]
They fired him from the Opry
[Blake Shelton:]
And that 'caused his greatest pain

[Blake Shelton:]
I wanna tell you about lovesick
How Miss Audrey loved that man
[Adam Wakefield:]
You know, I've always loved to listen
To the stories 'bout that drifting cowboy band
And the man
[Blake Shelton:]
Yeah, when you get right down to it
[Both:]
He's still the most wanted outlaw in the land
[Adam Wakefield:]
Know when you get right down to it
Still the most wanted outlaw in the land
