Jambalaya. Love to hear it, love to sing it, love to play it. And it is one of my most requested at gigs.

Add "I'm so lonesome" and we are in business, cowboy!

Fave Hank tune? Too hard to chose just one.
Cold, Cold Heart, I Can't Help It, Half As Much

Kaw-Liga is great and you also gotta love the Hank Sr. Hank Jr. combo on There's A Tear In My Beer

What else? Little Paper Boy

Title: Little Paper Boy
Artist: Hank Williams
Writers: Jim Anglin and Johnnie Wright

Out on the corner standin' so bold
Stood a little paper boy so hungry and cold
And as the crowd came passin' by
These words he said with tears in his eyes

"Please buy a paper from me
So I can get me somethin' to eat
My clothes are ragged, no shoes on my feet"
Said the little paper boy, there on the street

"Out in this cold wide world all alone
I have no place on this earth to call home
I haven't had the chance that other kids had
I have no mother, nor even a dad

So please buy a paper from me
So I can get me somethin' to eat
My clothes are ragged, no shoes on my feet "
Said the little paper boy, there on the street

Early next mornin' as the crowd passed by
The little boy was gone and they wondered why
They started searchin' and then found him dead
He died with the papers under his head

No one was there his body to claim
There he was lying but he felt no pain
Now he has gone up to Heaven we know
The little paper boy who died in the snow

--"There ya have it friends"

I've got so many favourites. These days I'm getting hooked with an old and hard to find one called, "Cherokee Boogie".

He didn't write that one though. Of the ones he wrote, I like "Men With Broken Hearts" and "You Better Keep It On Your Mind".

Oh Yeah, one of my favs is "Thy Burdens Are Greater Than Mine". This one is really inspirational. I'm not sure if he wrote it.

I've got to go with "I heard that lonesome whistle blow"

Welcome sackett. You don't happen to be a Louis Lamour fan, do you?
