On The Banks Of The Old Pontchartrain - Hank Williams[00:00:01]

I traveled from Texas to old Louisanne[00:00:05]

Through valleys o'er mountains and plains[00:00:09]

Both footsore and weary I rested awhile[00:00:15]

On the banks of the old Pontchartrain[00:00:20]

The fairest young maiden that I ever saw[00:00:36]

Passed by as it started to rain[00:00:38]

We both found a shelter beneath the same tree[00:00:43]

On the banks of the old Pontchartrain[00:00:44]

We hid from the shower an hour or so[00:01:12]

She asked me how long I'd remain[00:01:16]

I told her that I'd spend the rest of my days[00:01:22]

On the banks of the old Pontchartrain[00:01:47]

I just couldn't tell her that I ran away[00:01:56]

From jail on a West Texas plain[00:02:08]

I prayed in my heart I would never be found[00:02:17]

On the banks of the old Pontchartrain[00:02:23]

Then one day a man put his hand on my arm[00:02:25]

And said I must go west again[00:02:26]

I left her alone without saying goodbye[00:02:26]

On the banks of the old Pontchartrain[00:02:28]

Tonight as I sit here alone in my cell[00:02:32]

I know that she's waiting in vain[00:02:34]

I'm hoping and praying someday to return[00:02:35]

On the banks of the old Pontchartrain[00:02:36]
