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

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

Through valleys o'er mountains and plains[00:00:10]

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[00:00:25]

Passed by as it started to rain[00:00:30]

We both found a shelter beneath the same tree[00:00:35]

On the banks of the old Pontchartrain[00:00:40]

We hid from the shower an hour or so[00:01:06]

She asked me how long I'd remain[00:01:11]

I told her that I'd spend the rest of my days[00:01:16]

On the banks of the old Pontchartrain[00:01:21]

I just couldn't tell her that I ran away[00:01:46]

From jail on a West Texas plain[00:01:52]

I prayed in my heart I would never be found[00:01:57]

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

Then one day a man put his hand on my arm[00:02:07]

And said I must go west again[00:02:13]

I left her alone without saying goodbye[00:02:18]

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

Tonight as I sit here alone in my cell[00:02:28]

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

I'm hoping and praying someday to return[00:02:39]

On the banks of the old Pontchartrain[00:02:44]
