Montgomery In The Rain Composer(s): Steve Young Performer(s): Steve Young; Hank Williams
Well here I am again down in Montgomery Alabam My luck ain't never been up but I'm used to it down So all you people don't look at me and frown I don't want to stay here and I'm just passing through your town And I just came back here to see an old stained window pane Before you tear it all down and bring out your crane I did want to see Montgomery in the rain......
Around these streets and old houses alot of changes I been through From the top of the town to washing cars, being down out and blue And I once met a woman here with ways like I never had seen We used to rambel between here and old New Orleans So I've just come back here to remember a joy and a pain To look back to a year through a tear in an old window pane And I did want to see Montgomery in the rain.....
So you don't have to hide your baby you don't have to go get no gun I know I look funny to you all honey but I'm just one Who was once from here and now whose come back again And I'm not asking for nothing but my song a cemetary wind And if its all right with you before I get back on the train I want to go out by Hank's tombstone and cry up a thunder storm chain 'cause I did want to see Montgomery in the rain.......
