Lyrics

[00:00.59] Artist:johnny cash
[00:01.65] Songs Title:the night hank williams came to town
[00:02.84]
[00:08.65] Harry Truman was our president
[00:10.05]
[00:14.61] A coke an burger cost you thirty cents
[00:16.17]
[00:19.05] I was still in love with Mavis Brown
[00:20.36]
[00:24.30] On the night Hank Williams came to town.
[00:26.85]
[00:30.18] "I Love Lucy" debuted on TV
[00:31.43]
[00:34.55] That was one big event we didn't see
[00:36.80]
[00:41.42] 'Cause no one stayed at home for miles around
[00:45.49]
[00:46.36] It was the night Hank Williams came to town.
[00:48.12]
[00:51.74] Mama ironed my shirt and daddy let me take the truck
[00:54.24]
[00:56.73] I drove on out to Grapevine and picked old Mavis up
[00:58.68]
[01:02.86] We hit that county line for one quick round
[01:05.92]
[01:06.74] On the night HANK WILLIAMS came to town.
[01:08.80]
[01:12.11] A thousand people sweltered in the gym
[01:13.55]
[01:16.86] Then I heard someone whisper; "Hey, that's him"
[01:19.30]
[01:21.36] That's when the crowd let out this deafening sound
[01:22.80]
[01:26.42] It was the night Hank Williams came to town.
[01:27.99]
[01:30.49] On and on he sang into the night
[01:31.61]
[01:33.23] 'Jambalaya', 'Cheatin' heart', 'I saw the light'
[01:34.36] How'd they get Miss Audrey in that gown
[01:35.86] On the night Hank Williams came to town.
[01:37.29] Mavis had her picture made with Hank outside his car
[01:38.61] She said; "He sure is humble for a Grand Ole Opry Star."
[01:40.55] Mavis said: "Why don't we hang around
[01:40.86] It ain't often that Hank Williams comes to town."
[01:42.49] While Hank signed his autograph on Beaulah Rice's fan
[01:43.23] Mavis got acquainted with the Driftin' Cowboys Band
[01:44.48] The effect on all our lives was quite profound
[01:45.99] On the night Hank Williams came to town.
[01:46.67] Radio announcer's voice in the background:
[01:48.42] Remember, friends and neighbors, Hank Williams and all the Drifting
[01:49.23] Cowboys will be at the high school gym in person for one show only
[01:50.48] this Saturday night. The big 2 hour show starts at 7:30 - tickets are
[01:50.92] just a dollar-fifty each; you get your money's worth the first 15 minutes
[01:52.80] and the rest is free. That's Saturday night - advance tickets are on sale
[01:54.68] now at Renfrow's Drugstore, Do-Nut Heaven and here at the radio station.
[01:56.30] Hank Williams - all the Drifting Cowboys, Don Helms, Jerry Rivers (fade)
