That's a nice assortment of lyrics, Gene - but gee, there sure is a lot of advertising and popups and all.
Happy Thanksgiving! Thanks for calling the other day.

From: Jim Dixon

SIX MORE MILES (TO THE GRAVEYARD)
As recorded by Hank Williams, 1948. (MGM 10271)

1. Oh, the rain is slowly fallin’
And my heart is so sore.
Six more miles an’ leave my darlin’,
Never on this earth to meet no more.

CHORUS: Six more miles to the graveyard,
Six more miles long an’ sad;
Six more miles an’ leave my darlin’,
Leave the best friend I ever had.

2. Oh, I hear the train a-comin’,
Bringin’ my darlin’ back home.
Six more miles to the graveyard,
Then I’ll be left here all alone. CHORUS TWICE

From: Jim Dixon

You can hear this at YouTube:


WEALTH WON'T SAVE YOUR SOUL
Words and music by Hank Williams.
As recorded by Hank Williams, 1946. (Sterling 204 A)

As we journey along on life’s wicked road,
Though selfish are we for silver and gold,
You can treasure your wealth, your diamonds and gold,
But, my friend, it won’t save your poor wicked soul.

For when God calls from his home up on high,
To your earthly wealth you must say goodbye.
Then it’s useless to you if you’ve strayed from the fold,
For, my friends, it won’t save your poor wicked soul.

The rich man like all will be judged at that time,
But all of his wealth will be left behind,
For no matter how much earthly wealth you get hold,
My friend, it won’t save your poor wicked soul.
My friend, it won’t save your poor wicked soul.
