Long dark ride

Was on my way from Texas with my rig hammered down picking up a load on the outskirts of town when in the distance from the dust what did i see was man in a cowboy hat thumbing down for me. He climbed up in my rig and thanked me for the ride all he had with him was the guitar by his side
[Chorus]
I said sir can you make that 6 string talk true can you make it twang and wine like hank use to do do the notes that you play cut you deep down inside i really have to know before end of this ride

He picke that guitar and he play some real sad mans blues stories about his life you could tell were true i wipe the tear from my eye and asked him one thing i said sir did you write that song about you life he didnt say a word he just hung his head and cried 
[Chorus]
I said sir can you make that 6 string talk true can you make it twang and wine like hank use to do do the notes that you play cut you deep down in side i really have to know before end of this ride

He had me stop bout mile before the county line he jump down off the step and waved me goodbye to this day i cant tell if it was real or a dream but boy boy that man could make the 6 string scream
[Bridge]

[Final Chorus]
I said sir can you make that 6 string talk true can you make it twang and wine like hank use to do do notes that you cut you deep down in side i really have to know before end of this ride
