David Allan Coe The Ghost Of Hank Williams
In an Alabama graveyard, on a December day,
A young man with a guitar stares in to space and plays.
No one there to listen. No one there but him.
And the Ghost of Hank Williams sings, "Your Cheatin
Heart" again.
Marty Robbins, Pasty Cline, Ernest Tubb, and Red
Sovine,
Jimmie Rodgers, and old Lefty was my friend.
It's so lonesome here tonight, but someday "I'll See
The Light."
When the ghost of Hank Williams plays, "Your Cheatin
Heart" again.
It was 2 A.M. in Nashville and the Ryman [ 1 ] Stage
was bare.
There was just a lot of memories from the Opry [ 2 ]
being there.
In the stillness of the morning on a cold December
wind.
And the Ghost of Hank Williams plays, "Your Cheatin
Heart" again.
Marty Robbins, Pasty Cline, Ernest Tubb, and Red
Solvine,
Jimmy Rodgers, and old Lefty was my friends.
It's so lonesome here tonight, but someday "I'll See
The Light."
When the ghost of Hank Williams plays, "Your Cheatin
Heart" again.
There's a DJ in Ohio that recalls that New Years Day,
When he had to tell the nation that his singer passed
away [ 3 ] .
Sometimes when it's late at night he'll let some
records spin.
And the ghost of Hank Williams will sings, "Your
Cheatin Heart" again.
Marty Robbins, Pasty Cline, Ernest Tubb, and Red
Solvine,
Jimmy Rodgers, and old Lefty was my friends.
It's so lonesome here tonight, but someday "I'll See
The Light."
When the ghost of Hank Williams sings, "Your Cheatin
Heart" again.
In an Alabama graveyard on a hot September day,
A young man with a guitar stares in to space and plays.
No one there to listen. No on there but him.
And the Ghost of Hank Williams sings, "Your Cheatin
Heart" again
