Hear that lonesome whippoorwill?
He sounds too blue to fly.
The midnight train is whinin' low,
I'm so lonesome I could cry. — Hank Williams · 1949I fell into a burnin' ring of fire
I went down, down, down
And the flames went higher. — Johnny Cash · 1963Stand by your man
And show the world you love him,
Keep giving all the love you can. — Tammy Wynette · 1968I can settle down and be doin' just fine
Till I hear an old freight rollin' down the line,
Then I hurry straight home and pack
And if I didn't go, I believe I'd blow my stack
I love you baby, but you gotta understand
When the Lord made me he made a ramblin' man. — Hank Williams · 1951You got to know when to hold 'em,
Know when to fold 'em,
Know when to walk away,
and know when to run. — Kenny Rogers · 1978It was a real slow walk in a real sad rain. — Johnny Cash · 1994All 8 quotes →
