I'm gonna do you a little medley
of a Hank Williams song.
If you hear one you like,
you tell me about it, okay?
I tried so hard, my dear, to show
That you're my every dream
Yet you're afraid each thing I do
It's just some evil scheme
The more I learn to care for you
The more we drift apart
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
And melt your cold, cold heart
Yeah!
Take these chains from my heart
and set me free
Be as fair to my heart as you can be
Well then if you no longer care
All the love that's beating there
Take these chains from my heart
And set me free
I bet you remember this one
If you love me half as much as I love you
You wouldn't worry me
half as much as you do
I know that I would never be this blue
If you only loved me
half as much as I love you
Today I passed you on the street
And my heart fell at your feet
I can't help it if I'm still in
love with you
Somebody else stood by your side
And he looked so satisfied
I can't help it if I'm still
in love with you
Now everybody knows this,
you're cheatin' hard,
but if you weep
You'll cry and cry and try to sleep
But sleep won't come the
whole night through
You're cheatin' hard,
we'll tell on you
The news is out, all over town
That you've been seen
the runnin' round
I know that I should leave,
then I just can't go be
with again
Here's my favorite,
ladies and gentlemen
I have the invitation that you sent me
You wanted me to see you
change your name
I we could sing Hank's songs all night,
but we don't have time
to do them all.
I've had the pleasure of playing in 41 countries around the world,
ladies and gentlemen, and I've never been anywhere yet,
no matter what language
they spoke
Somebody didn't know
this next song of Hank Williams
Here's the song that made
his name famous
all around our world
I got a feelin' cold and blue
Oh Lord, since my baby said goodbye
Lord, I don't know what I'll do
All I do is sit and sigh and sigh,
oh Lord, that
Last Monday she said goodbye
Well, Lord, I told her goodbye
She'll do me, she'll do you,
she got the kind of lovin'
Lord, I loved her hair
when she called me sweet daddy
Such a beautiful dream
I hate to think it all over
I lost my heart,
it seems I've grown so used to you somehow
But I'm nobody's sugar daddy now
And I'm low on some
I got the lovesick blues
Well, we couldn't quit a
-singin' Hank Williams songs
unless we did the first one
that he ever put on record.
Do y know what the first song
he ever put out was?
Goes like this.
Came in last night at half past ten
That baby of mine,
she wouldn't let me in
So move it on over, shove it on over
Move over big dog,
cause I need it all moving in
Well she warned me once
and she warned me twice
But I don't take no one's advice
So move it on, move it on over
Cold it on over, cold it on over
Move over knee -long,
cause the feet don't move any
Move over hot -dog,
cause the cold don't move any
This is for you, Miss Dankler.
From the great Atlantic Ocean
to the wide Pacific Shore
To the queen of flowing mountain
by the South Mill by the shore
In a mighty rush of the Indian canine
loathsome ho -ho's claw
No changes can be taken
on the Wabash Cannonball, yeah
Harden Powell in his big electric
Hawaiian steel guitar
She rolled into Birmingham
on no December day
As you pulled into the station,
you could hear all the people say
There's a gal out there from Florida,
she's long and she's tall
She's a combination of the
Wabash Cannonball
and the Roll
Chuck Jennings and his custom
Fender guitar
Here's to daddy Travis
May's name forever stand
Always be remembered
throughout this great land
His earthly race is over
and we're back to a draw
Gonna carry him up to heaven
on the Wabash Cannonball
Everybody!
Well, listen to the jingle, the rumble,
and the roar
As he glides along the world
and by the hills and by the shore
Hear the mighty rush of the engines,
and I love some hobo squawk.
No changes can be taken
on the Wabash Cannonball.
We're rollin' right to Dixie
on the Wabash Cannonball.
God love you ladies and gentlemen!
A special thanks to Mr. Foxcar Willie,
And here also from Nashville, Tennessee,
the unique talent of the Marlins.
