Here's a tune that speaks for me every dark hour: Jerry Jeff Walker's "I FEEL LIKE HANK WILLIAMS TONIGHT."

I could live my whole life without a phone call
The likes of which I got today.
It was only my wife; said hello, then goodbye,
And told me she's goin' away.

Well, I didn't cry; it was all cut and dry.
I hung up before I realized.
I turned up my stereo, I walked to the window,
And stared at the storm clouds outside.

CHORUS: And I play classical music when it rains.
I play country when I am in pain,
But I won't play Beethoven; the mood's just not right.
I feel like Hank Williams tonight.

There was no explanation, not even a reason,
No talk of the good times we had.
Was it me? Was it her? I don't know for sure.
That's why I'm feelin' so bad.

CHORUS: Hey, I play jazz when I am confused.
I play country whenever I lose.
Bird's saxophone just don't seem right.
I feel like Hank Williams tonight.

Lately, I been thinkin', I just might quit drinkin',
But now I don't know, all in all.
I just might stay home, get drunk all alone,
And punch a few holes in the wall.

CHORUS: 'Cause when I'm real high, I play rock 'n' roll.
I play country when I'm losin' control.
I don't play Chuck Berry quite as much as I'd like.
Now I feel like Hank Williams tonight.
Now I feel like Hank Williams tonight.


Peace to your heart and soul.
