Well I left my friends and family in dust late one night as I headed up the coast for somethin new
Said my life felt awful tangled all around me I felt strangled by the weight of expectations on me too
Now I'm walkin down the highway with a sign said going my way hoping someone with a big hearts drivin thru
Just then a car pull up real slowly I said,
God bless you sir you saved me my names me what do I have the pleasure of calling you
Hattibagen McRatt, all my friends call me Hat
Hattibagen McRatt, how far can you travel without making trends?
He said now where you headin I'm a travlin man myself I come from Nashville I'm a dobro pickin man
And I play sweet bluegrass music although it hasn't brought me wealth
It keeps my soul alive and keeps my spirit free
Well I told him I was headin for the first town that looked good I have no commitments to the life I used to rule
Then Hatti chuckled softly said his house was in the Rockies I could stay for free for just a week or two
Hattibagen McRatt, all my friends call me Hat
Hattibagen McRatt, how far can you travel without making trends?
Well we drove to Colorado goin 80 miles an hour stoppin only to relieve our human needs
And he started up a fire made a stew to eat for dinner then he plucked his dobro flat across his knee
Now take this here guitar you see and pluck those strings as fast as me
And soon you'll play sweet bluegrass like a king
Well I strummed that thing both day and night and practiced till my fingers died
We only stopped to eat and go to sleep
Hattibagen McRatt, all my friends call me Hat
Hattibagen McRatt, how far can you travel without making trends?
Few months had passed before my eyes the music soon became our lives we formed a band and started playin shows
The crowds at first were thin and few but soon the crowds filled up and grew
We sold out every show we showed up to
Well I woke early one mornin couldn't hear sweet Hatti snorin so I went outside to see where he could be
I didn't know where he was gone till a couple weeks went by and then I knew he was helpin angels find their feet
