letra de on the banks of the old pontchatrain - hank williams

Loading...

i traveled from texas to old louisanne
through valleys, o’er mountains and plains
both footsore and weary, i rested awhile
on the banks of the old pontchartrain

the fairest young maiden that i ever saw
p-ssed by as it started to rain
we both found a shelter beneath the same tree
on the banks of the old pontchartrain

we hid from the shower, an hour or so
she asked me, how long i’d remain?
i told her that i’d spend the rest of my days
on the banks of the old pontchartrain

i just couldn’t tell her that i ran away
from jail on a west texas plane
i prayed in my heart, i would never be found
on the banks of the old pontchartrain

then one day a man put his hand on my arm
and said i must go west again
i left her alone without saying goodbye
on the banks of the old pontchartrain

tonight as i sit here alone in my cell
i know that she’s waiting in vain
i’m hoping and praying someday to return
to the banks of the old pontchartrain
