The Night Hank Williams Came To Town
Recorded by Johnny Cash
Written by Bobby Braddock and Charlie Williams

C F
Harry Truman was our president
G7 C
A coke and burger cost you thirty cents
F
I was still in love with Mavis Brown
C G7 C
On the night Hank Williams came to town

F
I Love Lucy debuted on TV
G7 C
That was one big event we didn't see
F
Cause no one stayed at home for miles around
C G7 C
It was the night Hank Williams came to town

F C
Momma ironed my shirt and daddy let me take the truck
D7 G7
I drove on out to Grapevine and picked old Mavis up
C F
We hit that county line for one quick round
C G7 C
On the night Hank Williams came to town

F
A thousand people sweltered in the gym
G7 C
Then I heard someone whisper hey that's him
F
That's when the crowd let out this deafening sound
C G7 C
It was the night Hank Williams came to town

F
On and on he sang into the night
G7 C
Jambalaya, Cheating Heart, I Saw the light
F
How'd they get Miss Audrey in that gown
C G7 C
On the night Hank Williams came to town

F C
Mavis had her picture made with Hank out by his car
D7 G7
She said he sure is humble for a Grand Ole Opry star
C F
Mavis said why don't we hang around
C G7 C
It ain't often that Hank Williams comes to town

F C
While Hank signed his autograph on Beaulah Rizner's fan
D7 G7
Mavis got acquainted with the Drifting Cowboys Band
C F
The effect on all our lives was quite profound
C G7 C
On the night Hank Williams came to town
