Lyrics On the Banks of the Pontchartrain - Hank Williams
I
traveled
from
Texas
to
old
Louisanne
Through
valleys,
o'er
mountains
and
plains
Both
footsore
and
weary,
I
rested
awhile
On
the
banks
of
the
old
Pontchartrain
The
fairest
young
maiden
that
I
ever
saw
Passed
by
as
it
started
to
rain
We
both
found
a
shelter
beneath
the
same
tree
On
the
banks
of
the
old
Pontchartrain
We
hid
from
the
shower,
an
hour
or
so
She
asked
me,
how
long
I'd
remain?
I
told
her
that
I'd
spend
the
rest
of
my
days
On
the
banks
of
the
old
Pontchartrain
I
just
couldn't
tell
her
that
I
ran
away
From
jail
on
a
West
Texas
plane
I
prayed
in
my
heart,
I
would
never
be
found
On
the
banks
of
the
old
Pontchartrain
Then
one
day
a
man
put
his
hand
on
my
arm
And
said
I
must
go
west
again
I
left
her
alone
without
saying
goodbye
On
the
banks
of
the
old
Pontchartrain
Tonight
as
I
sit
here
alone
in
my
cell
I
know
that
she's
waiting
in
vain
I'm
hoping
and
praying
someday
to
return
To
the
banks
of
the
old
Pontchartrain
