  • Legendary hank music

  • If this doesn't give you goosebumps you don't have skin...

  • Simpsons brought me here, glad to stay with you

  • This song almost makes me wanna cry...damn .... it just speaks the truth..not just the lyrics, but the music also...

  • If I ever have a son, his name will be Hank.

  • THE WHOLE WILLIAMS FAMILY IS AMAZING. PEOPLE FORGET HOLLY, LISTEN TO HER DO I SEE THE LIGHT AND I'M SO LONESOME I COULD CRY. HANK III IS HANK SR GHOST

  • If you dislike this song you obviously have absolutly no taste in true music. Hank Sr. Hank Jr. and Hank III are the best of the best. I mean wat do you expect when your dad writes music and sings like this. Hank Sr. will live forever in the greatest music ever put on a record!!!

  • Hank Williams did to country music what John Ford did to western movies. God rest the great man's soul. Tim 25779

  • this will make a great combination with fallout new vegas no offence to those of you, who like this song

  • we lost a legend in the back seat of a cadillac in oak hill west motherfuckin virginia!!!! but david allan coe played the eulogy in the form of "the ride"

  • Often Imitated. What a treasure he was. Can't no one touch him in country today.

  • this is about as good as it gets.,

  • While I'm not a big fan of country music, Hank transcended the genre. He was such an original, he did so much in his fairly short life. Thanks for postin, this should be required listening for anyone who thinks they listen to "badass" music.

  • fuc yea

  • fuckin classy!!!

  • For the longest time I always thought Hank wrote this only to find out this was a cover version but by God, does Hank make this his own

  • @LeyNOS13B I only just found out it was a cover thanks to you, now I get to discover Leon Payne aswell, cheers!

  • this liberal would disagree, sorry

    

  • I keep seeing an ad for President Obama on this video. I'm thinking that the President may have missed target on this one. Just a bit.

  • @adambear12682 right on man. there aint no liberals listenin to old hank

  • @hondapower991 I am right now

  • @adambear12682 haha... yeah... you shoulda went west coast style with that brotha barrack.!

  • just a deck of cards and a jug of wine and a woman's lies makes a life like mine

  • i swear i can feel this mans pain through his voice..gives me shivers

  • @Hype0071 whiskey/opiates calms that

  • For a life of sin I have payed the cost. Every good Idea I have put into works was always wrong. And all the People I hurt on my Journey through, I really am truly sorry. But, knowing me, I will mess up again. Sorry....

  • Don't know who you are , and never heard of you , but that was a mouthfull to say . You have gained my respect .

  • This, is what you call music...not todays crap, i could listen to this stuff all day long, it just takes me back.

  • There were very few that were better! The singers of today need to listen to Hank before they sing a note. Sing it Hiram!!!!

  • This is music.

  • The story behind this song! Daddy, after graduating from blind school, hitchhiked all ovee the USA, once when he was in California, he got news his mother was dieing in Texas, he could not hitch a ride, Red Cross got him a bus ticket, while waiting for the bus, he weotw this, that was in 1938, daddy was 21

  • I just wanna say i Love Hank

  • story of my life the past 15 years

  • My demons have been getting the best of me for the last 5 years or so but I am starting to beat them!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @the1836guy My demons just introduced themselves to me im also getting to know jim beam pretty good now

  • wish more people saw this one. i took a detour at the right time.

  • he had some good advice in this song.well put.thanks for posting.

  • Hank Williams greatest hits was one of the first cd's i ever bought i think all three hanks are awesome especially hank 3 he looks and sounds more like hank sr. then his own dad does. I used to crank that cd up when i would cruise around town (when gas was a decent price) just to see the looks i would get from people lol, now i mostly blare out hank 3. Im still young but i choose this music over rap or pop or pop-country anyday

  • Well I've been on that lonely road for a long time over 47 years now. Hoping to find the secret to writting a song like this. Now it's to late pray,I'll never get out of this world alive, when the angle of death comes, I can stand up and say I did what I did so let's do it!!

  • @lukethedifter1953 Been there, done that,enjoyed it too much, paying the price.

  • I'd like to leave a little prayer here, for my brother, who is spending some days on the Lost Highway. See, he just found out about his real father, his 3 brothers and his sister. I went through this same thing with my mom growing up. Even though I learned these lessons, and with all my heart I would spare him the burden of beating himself up with it, he must man up to it himself. Here's to hoping he doesn't wrestle with it too long. Amen

  • @Morgul1975 amen

  • How can people not like this type of music this song is really up there in age and you know what i will be willing to bet that when people like me at only 21 will still be listening when we are 80 hanks music will never die

  • Dear God I LOVE HANK WILLIAMS NAME ALL THREE

    

  • newt's on the lost highway? no doubt, it is no secret. disgusting.

  • what do you call this its ok

  • @deadboydansmith089 traditional american country music.

  • @deadboydansmith089 I think you're failing to consider one fact. I'll bet you listen to more modern music so the fact that you call this "ok" actually makes it great. Because you're offering a positive opinion on not a modern song, but a song that is around 70years old.

  • @worthlessloser8 .. and ends in 8..

  • How can someone not like this?

  • best country singer ever. EVER!

  • A real good old boy that sang for the cash and pussy...

    and bitches

    May god bless Hank Williams with an eternal churchside afterlife. 

  • @WorthlessLoser8 Hank would have never called women by such a name.

  • @LesbianVampireLover

    NEVAR HE WOULD NEVAR!!

    Unless he was hankin' with Lil Boosie

  • @WorthlessLoser8 Well said :-) I'm sure Hank himself would have liked it.

  • @WorthlessLoser8 yeah which is why he was singin' for free instead of showin' up for the concerts! Learn something about music history before you run your mouth!\

  • @WorthlessLoser8 I'm sure he'll be there even if you're not!

  • @WorthlessLoser8 which would explain why your username begins with worthless loser

  • @WorthlessLoser8 u r a troll lmao

  • God bless Johnny cash and Hank williams sr My favorite American country music

  • this my favorite hank song by far

  • not heard that version be fore. thanx!

  • Nice tune dude.

  • This isn't country, this is white man's blues!

  • @MrAgh50 That's pretty much the same thing

  • @MrAgh50 "Country IS the white man's blues" - Lightnin' Hopkins

  • two people are on the Lost Highway.

  • @joshman071888 now there's four of them lost souls!

  • @joshman071888 All kinds of us mofos are on the lost highway

  • Comment removed

  • @joshman071888 3 more people followed them on that Lost Highway....

  • Areal good old boy that sang for the love of it not the money.

  • @hwright212 Good ol' boy is a term that has been perverted. Now it seems to means sport an american flag but stifle free speech and expression. It seems more like people use freedom as excuse to get a hard on rather than actually advocate it. Does the hipocrisy of freedom make you feel so great when you see people being beaten in the streets for exercising their "freedoms?"

  • @hwright212 When middle America says they live and die for freedom but don't actively support it, it's like moderate muslims saying they're not a part of extremist Islam, but refuse to condemn it.

  • @hwright212 Amen to that

  • This is the GENIUS of country music

  • now this is country music

  • ANYBODY OUT THERE HEARD STEVE GOODMANS VERISON OF THIS??? i loooove hank but damn steve tears it up!!!

  • OH LORD, TURN TO SWEET JESUS AND HE WILL LEAD DOWN THE SUNLIT HIGHWAY TO SALVATION >TAKE MY ADVICE, OR YOU'LL CURSE THE DAY.

  • Fuck no! don't end it. That's what my best friend did. You all know that person who 'over reacted' when the heard someone talk about suicide. That person knew someone who actually did... I'd rather be rollin down the lost highway than be rigormortis.

  • @bahhhmeran Stop it.

  • country music today is pure pop crap. half of these people use ghost writers to write their music. go on look for rachel brooke, theres a videos of her live stuff on here. shes a TRUE country singer. also for the people that like to raise a little hell go listen to hank 3, hank sr grandson

  • Yessir, it is indeed very pretty. Thank you.

  • the only reason why hank died is just because god wanted to meet him!

  • this type of country unfortunately died with hank sr cause it was unique music by an even more unique induvidual

  • love old hank!!!!

  • wish they stilled played this type of music on the radio

  • What a man con do with his guitar!

  • 2 people got lost on the way to the like button

  • I love Hank Williams.

  • 1 person is rolling down that lost highway.

  • Good music yes sir. I like the weird music mostly b52's and all the out there sounds but stripped down music is very nice change of pace.

  • This makes me want to buy and acoustic and be a badass. I feel like I'll fail in the badass department :/

  • this tugs at your heart strings no matter when you were born...that is the genius of this man, he could reach you where you live.

  • Im glad his grandson is keeping real country music alive. The Williams are the best of the best, hands down

  • Type of song that realy hits you! Could listen over and over and it will never get old.

  • jeff buckleys version brought me here, glad i came to listen to this brilliant song

  • I first heard Hank Williams in 1962 and that was ten years since he was gone. Now 49 years later I am still listening and in love with his music. His music wil live on and future generations will have the opportunity to hear one of the greatest country singer /songwriters.

  • @vegatrev  the Greatest

  • Johnny Cash? Johnny who? Nah Nah Nah, kids this is the real deal.

  • and

  • @mrpoopdaddy2014 what a shame i really wish he got to make more songs this guy reminds me of hunting camp and a cold beer

  • sorry i never get tired of hearing his voice

  • He sounds a lot different from when he is older...I just listened to rainy night in Georgia sung by him

  • This is amazing music, no doubt. However, I'd like to point out that I'm the 420th "liker". That is all.
