The Complete Lyrics

The Complete Lyrics

Hank Williams
4.7/5 ( ratings)
Hank Williams was one of the greatest songwriters America has ever known. In a career that lasted less than a decade, Williams gave us a songbook bursting with country classics: songs of misery and joy, of love won and love lost, of Saturday-night dancing and Sunday-morning devotion. Crafted with wit and grace and wisdom, Hank William's songs -- which have inspired writers from Bob Dylan to Bruce Springsteen -- are a national treasure.Hank Williams: The Complete Lyrics collects, for the first time, all the Williams songs known to exist -- over 130 in all, from his first known composition to what may have been his last . It also marks the first appearance in print of dozens of "lost songs" discovered in the last decade, and of lost verses to beloved Williams tunes from "Jambalaya" to "I'll Never Get Out of This World Alive." With an introductory essay by country-music scholar Don Cusic that sets Williams's work in the context of his life, Hank Williams: The Complete Lyrics is a definitive collection long overdue.
