I was raised on Hank Williams, Hank Snow &...Bob.<br />I was raised on Hank Williams, Hank Snow & Les Paul & Mary Ford (before there was Web Pierce & Kitty Wells). I have 122 Hank Williams related albums, but maybe my favorite song in the collection is this Ry Cooder recording from 2007 about Buddy The Cat riding with Hank Williams"<br /><br />https://www.upload.ee/files/10515258/Hank_Williams.mp3.html<br /><br />Ry Cooder<br />Album My Name Is Buddy<br /><br />HANK WILLIAMS LYRICS<br /><br />You been over at that jukebox, mister, all this afternoon<br />Playing Hank Williams records for a dime<br />Well, I may be just a cat to you, but I know that heartbreak tune<br />And I'm proud to say Hank Williams was a real good friend of mine<br /><br />I never asked for money or his autograph, you see<br />'Cause I don't need too much to get along<br />I just liked to sit there with him and keep him company<br />Who says cats can't understand a real good country song?<br /><br />You think you know the man inside your little radio<br />All the trials and heartaches he's been through<br />To you he's just a country star, to me he's just a friend<br />No, you don't know Hank Williams like I do<br /><br />Some nights we'll go out riding in his great big car<br />With the little radio that's built right in<br />I'd sit up front there with him and his old guitar<br />And listen while the DJ played "Your Cheatin' Heart" again<br /><br />"Well, Buddy, you know there's something mighty strange<br /> about trying to live a life of fame, you see<br />It's supposed to make me happy, all it does is worry me<br />Nobody else seems to understand the things that I go through<br />Only time I feel peaceful is when I'm riding round with you"<br /><br />You've heard it on the radio, Hank has passed away<br />In the back seat of that Cadillac, it's true<br />To you he's just a legend now, to me he's still a friend<br />No, you don't know Hank Williams like I do<br />No, you don't know Hank Williams like I do<br /><br />My favorite line is about "the little radio built right in" <br />Nobody could imagine a line like that today :-)<br />Hit Paradehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02383392277072672981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2207658960014112112.post-7753839148527813382013-09-17T09:07:33.036-07:002013-09-17T09:07:33.036-07:00Go here for free mp3's of Hank
