Night Hank Williams Came to Town

Johnny Cash

Transposer:

Harry Truman was our president A coke and 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 Momma 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 Cheating 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 out by 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 Rizner's fan Mavis got acquainted with the Drifting Cowboys Band The effect on all our lives was quite profound On the night Hank Williams came to town

La chanson évoque une soirée mémorable dans un petit town, où tout le monde s'est rassemblé pour voir une légende de la musique américaine. À l'époque, le président était Harry Truman et les choses étaient bien plus simples : un burger et un soda coûtait une poignée de centimes. C'est aussi l'histoire d'un jeune homme qui est tombé amoureux de Mavis Brown et décide de l'emmener à ce grand événement. La foule est en ébullition à l'annonce de la venue de Hank Williams, et la magie de cette nuit est marquée par ses chansons emblématiques qui résonnent dans le gymnase bondé. Les fans, enchantés, se rapprochent de leurs idoles, et même si c'est un moment fugace, sa résonance dans leur vie est inoubliable.
