If This Hat Could Talk Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It’s pushed cattle on a palomino
Somewhere west to San Antone
It’s laid on the church floor as I talk to the good Lord
Cussed out him for callin’ grandpa home
And it hit the dirt one night in Fort Worth
When I thought I was bulletproof
And it got stomped by bull named Mile High
Yeah, but I scored 82
It might just be a dusty Resistol
[Chorus]
If this hat could talk, it tell me to hold on and hang around
If this hat could talk, it say it’s ’bout time we settle down
Don’t you think we’ve done enough ridin’ away
Maybe we should take the saddle off the Chevy and stay
If this hat could talk, it tell me to hang it at your place
[Verse 2]
Thе first time I met you, I’ll nevеr forget you
Snatched it off and put it on the wrong way
Hands like a pistil, said, boy, take a picture
‘Cause I feel like John Wayne
You pulled down the brim and I knew right then
[Chorus]
If this hat could talk, it tell me to hold on and hang around
If this hat could talk, it say it’s ’bout time we settle down
Don’t you think we’ve done enough ridin’ away
Maybe we should take the saddle off the Chevy and stay
If this hat could talk, it tell me to hang it at your place
[Bridge]
Wish I could sit and have a drink with it
Man, the stories it could tell
From the day I got it shaped and fitted
To the day it found its nail
If this hat could talk
[Chorus]
If this hat could talk, it tell me to hold on and hang around
If this hat could talk, it say it’s ’bout time we settle down
Don’t you think we’ve done enough ridin’ away
Maybe we should take the saddle off the Chevy and stay
If this hat could talk, it tell me to hang it at your place
