Hope you don't mind if I butt in to your conversation there, but that is one of my favorite songs, (and I also hope nobody minds if I post that song in a thread focusing mainly on our National Anthem).

Besides the versions on youtube done by Hank, there are many other singers' versions of that song on youtube as well.  (One version there is done by Elvis, and he said in that clip that he thought this is the saddest song he'd ever heard.)

Here's Hank:

       "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry"

We’re all in the conversation here, and I love that song, too. Elvis’s version is beautiful.

Hank’s is just so raw and of course, original.
