Hard to believe Hank Williams only lived to be 29 years old. He looks so old in the pictures you see. I guess that comes from hitting the bottle while you are still a teen and never slowing down.
There’s some good stuff here. Here’s another.
The self-proclaimed (3:05) “perfect country and western song,” as performed by David Allan Coe.

Autoharp. A new word for me.

You could hear it talk, you could hear it sing.[/quote]

My summer wine is really made from all these things.
Take off your silver spurs and help me pass the time,
And I will give to you summer wine.[/quote]
