David Allan Coe - Live, If That Ain´t Country (Colombia, 1997)
Dårlig med DAC på streaming. Denne finnes dog. Han er jo passe skrullete, men han har jo også gjennomlevet mye. Tror nok han har en større forståelse for Hank Sr. og likesinnedes liv enn de fleste. Dette er bra saker synes jeg; en tekst for kvelden. Mulig litt pretensiøst, men les tekst med musikk til:
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 Ryman1 Stage was bare.
There was just a lot of memories from the Opry2 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 away3.
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."
