The Night Hank Williams Came to Town lyrics

 
Harry Truman was our president
A coke an burger cost you thirty cents
I was still in love with Mavis Brown

On the night Hank Williams came to town.
That was one big event we didn't see
"I Love Lucy" debuted on TV
It was the night Hank Williams came to town.
Mama ironed my shirt and daddy let me take the truck
'Cause no one stayed at home for miles around
I drove on out to Grapevine and picked old Mavis up

A thousand people sweltered in the gym
On the night HANK WILLIAMS came to town.
We hit that county line for one quick round

That's when the crowd let out this deafening sound

Then I heard someone whisper; "Hey, that's him"
On and on he sang into the night
It was the night Hank Williams came to town.
'Jambalaya', 'Cheatin' heart', 'I saw the light'
How'd they get Miss Audrey in that gown



[Johnny Cash, The Night Hank Williams Came to Town lyrics and video on http://crocmusic.com/]

On the night Hank Williams came to town.

Mavis had her picture made with Hank outside his car
She said; "He sure is humble for a Grand Ole Opry Star."
Mavis said: "Why don't we hang around
It ain't often that Hank Williams comes to town."
While Hank signed his autograph on Beaulah Rice's fan
Mavis got acquainted with the Driftin' Cowboys Band

The effect on all our lives was quite proound
On the night Hank Williams came to town.

Radio announcer's voice in the background:

Remember, friends and neighbors, Hank Williams and all the Drifting
this Saturday night. The big 2 hour show starts at 7:30 - tickets are
Cowboys will be at the high school gym in person for one show only
just a dollar-fifty each; you get your money's worth the first 15 minutes
and the rest is free. That's Saturday night - advance tickets are on sale
Hank Williams - all the Drifting Cowboys, Don Helms, Jerry Rivers (fadenow at Renfrow's Drugstore, Do-Nut Heaven and here at the radio station.
