You wrote Your Cheatin' Heart about A gal like my first ex-wife You Moan The Blues for me and for you Hank Williams, You Wrote My Life. The Cold, Cold Heart and a doubtful mind I have known a few my self And the gal that loved me half as much As she loved somebody else. I've heard that blue old whippoorwill, too And the lonesome whistle whine I know that feel; so cold, so real When the blues come around at midnight. We've never met, I know and yet I know you well, my friend And if ever I, get to heaven on high I hope you'll shake my hand.
