Words and music by hank williams, sr.
[g] I could shame you til you hide your face
And drag you right down in disgrace
But what good would it [d] do
I know Id still want [g] you.
I could tell the world youre doin wrong
That I was stringin you along
And if it all were [d] true
I know Id still want [g] you.
The [c] world with me might sympathize
[g] when I got thru with all my lies
But Id be just as [d] blue
cause my heart would still want [g] you-ooo-oo
[d] cry, oh, [g] lord.
I could tell my friends I threw you down
And slander your name all over town
But what good would it do
I know Id still want you.
If I said Im happy to be free
The only one Id fool is me
Because it isnt true
I know Id still want you.
Whats the use to say that youre no good
When Id crawl back if I could
No matter what you do
I know Id still want you-ooo-oo
Cry, oh, lord.
I could smile and say that I dont care
And then go home and pull my hair
But what good would it do
I know Id still want you.
I could say that someone put me wise
And get revenge by telling lies
But when I got all thru
I know Id still want you.
If the things I said was to break your heart
Id be the first to take your part
cause if all these lies were true
I know Id still want you-oooo-oo
Cry, oh, lord.
Hank Williams (1923-1953) è considerato uno dei più grandi cantautori country di tutti i tempi. Nato in Alabama, negli Stati Uniti, Williams ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale suonando in locali e radio locali. Nel 1947 ha firmato con la MGM Records e ha subito raggiunto il successo con brani come «Your Cheatin' Heart» e «Hey, Good Lookin'». La sua musica era caratterizzata da melodie malinconiche, testi sinceri e una voce potente e emozionante. Williams ha venduto milioni di dischi durante la sua breve carriera, influenzando generazioni di artisti country e diventando un'icona della musica americana. Tra i suoi album più importanti ricordiamo «Honky Tonkin'» (1952) e «The Essential Hank Williams» (raccolta postuma).
