Lyrics The Night Hank Williams Came To Town - Johnny Cash , Waylon Jennings
Harry
Truman
was
our
president
A
coke
an
burger
cost
you
thirty
cents
I
was
still
in
love
with
Mavis
Brown
On
the
night
Hank
Williams
came
to
town.
"I
Love
Lucy"
debuted
on
TV
That
was
one
big
event
we
didn't
see
'Cause
no
one
stayed
at
home
for
miles
around
It
was
the
night
Hank
Williams
came
to
town.
Mama
ironed
my
shirt
and
daddy
let
me
take
the
truck
I
drove
on
out
to
Grapevine
and
picked
old
Mavis
up
We
hit
that
county
line
for
one
quick
round
On
the
night
HANK
WILLIAMS
came
to
town.
A
thousand
people
sweltered
in
the
gym
Then
I
heard
someone
whisper;
"Hey,
that's
him"
That's
when
the
crowd
let
out
this
deafening
sound
It
was
the
night
Hank
Williams
came
to
town.
On
and
on
he
sang
into
the
night
'Jambalaya',
'Cheatin'
heart',
'I
saw
the
light'
How'd
they
get
Miss
Audrey
in
that
gown
On
the
night
Hank
Williams
came
to
town.
Mavis
had
her
picture
made
with
Hank
outside
his
car
She
said;
"He
sure
is
humble
for
a
Grand
Ole
Opry
Star."
Mavis
said:
"Why
don't
we
hang
around
It
ain't
often
that
Hank
Williams
comes
to
town."
While
Hank
signed
his
autograph
on
Beaulah
Rice's
fan
Mavis
got
acquainted
with
the
Driftin'
Cowboys
Band
The
effect
on
all
our
lives
was
quite
profound
On
the
night
Hank
Williams
came
to
town.
