Greatly Appreciated

ARE YOU SURE HANK DONE IT THIS WAY
 
 
“Are You Sure Hank Done It This Way”  is a song written and performed by American country music artist Waylon Jennings.  It was released in August 1975 as the first single from the album Dreaming My Dreams.  The song became Waylon Jennings’ fourth number one on the country chart as a solo artist.  The single stayed at number one for one week and spent a total of sixteen weeks on the country chart.  The song was covered by Uncle Tupelo and released as a bonus track on their 2003 re-release of Anodyne.  (More from Wikipedia)
 
 
The final cut on the Moon Going Down album – the lyrics are also printed for this song – is called “Are You Sure John Donne it this Way”; only Thomas Anderson could mix a reference to an old “outlaw country” song by Waylon Jennings, “Are you Sure Hank Done it this Way” with John Donne, the British poet and satirist who was a contemporary of William Shakespeare
