Hank Williams Lyrics


On a warm night in June, 1949, with his first number one
record spilling out of radios across the country, a frail
young man walked onto the stage of Nashville's Ryman
Auditorium for his Grand Ole Opry debut. Behind him lay
nearly a decade of struggle and rejection in pursuit of
this goal; ahead, a little more than five years in the
limelight.

By 1953, literally worn out at twenty-nine, Hank Williams
was gone. But he had given country music much of its

legend so enduring that he More...

I hear this song differently . | Reviewer: David Duggan
    ------ About the song I'M SO LONESOME I COULD CRY performed by Hank Williams

I love Hank's original version. Saying that and being a musician in my imagination I can hear it differently. I've heard some covers but either they emulate it or completely change it. From B.J. Thomas to Dean Martin to Al Green. Not to mention all the Country artist. I'm hoping to find that version in my mind but until then I'll stick with the original.

Poignant WWII masterpiece | Reviewer: Wild Bill
    ------ About the song Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain performed by Hank Williams

In 1945 WWII was over in Europe and thousands of American military personnel were returning home, some with "war brides". Due to quotas and other restrictions/regulations many sweethearts were left behind, particularly in England and France. My mind's eye sees a rainy day in London when a young GI kissed his sweetheart goodbye, never to see her again. Filipino Baby is a similar song, but with a much happier ending.

Meaning of "Envire" | Reviewer: Mark
    ------ About the song THE FUNERAL performed by Hank Williams

The Oxford English Dictionary lists "envire" as an alternative spelling for "environ". In this case "envired" means surrounded, just as you are surrounded by your environment.

So "envired in a little colored pew" means "surrounded (by the congregation) in a little colored pew".

Dictionary definitions | Reviewer: John Henshaw
    ------ About the song THE FUNERAL performed by Hank Williams

I have always been a big admirer of American Country Music and in the lyrics to the Funeral by Hank Williams there is reference to the word "envired" in the first verse.
Can anyone tell me the meaning of this word as it is not recognised in any English Dictionary that I have checked.

sing in school | Reviewer: Anonymous
    ------ About the song THE TRAMP ON THE STREET performed by Hank Williams

when I was around 13 or 14 in high school we would have different students going around to different classrooms and sing songs of course I just happen to be one of the few to go to a classroom and I was also chosen to sing Tramp on the Street before the whole school can't say I was not nervous but I did do it and everyone loved it but then things had a different meaning because prayer was still in school but I have never forgotten the song and what it meant to me I am so glad Hank recorded this song

I,am Free at last | Reviewer: Jim
    ------ About the song I'M FREE AT LAST performed by Hank Williams

If anyone could evoke heartfelt emotion with music and lyric,it was the great " Hillbilly shakespear " Hank Williams. I,ve often wondered how many beautiful songs were lost ,unwritten yet ,with Hanks passing at such an early age of 29. No one in my humble opinion,has ever equalled his work,what a gifted man he was,he wrote with such sincere care honesty and respect .Country music has changed so much,from Hanks days,seems like from a different world altogether, my opinion ,Jim MacGillivray

I am dead too... | Reviewer: RAP
    ------ About the song Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain performed by Hank Williams

My dear son whom I shall always love more than anything has chosen a life without his father and me. I thought it would kill me and I believe it has.
Now he is gone, dead to me. I am dead too and all I have are precious memories most especially when he was a little fellow and loved me more than anything too. He is dead. I am dead...
