On a warm night in June, 1949, with his first number one record spilling out of radios across the country, a frail young man walked onto the stage of Nashville's Ryman Auditorium for his Grand Ole Opry debut. Behind him lay nearly a decade of struggle and rejection in pursuit of this goal; ahead, a little more than five years in the limelight. By 1953, literally worn out at twenty-nine, Hank Williams was gone. But he had given country music much of its standard repertoire, a new definition of stardom and a legend so enduring that he is still the model for countless singers and songwriters. Born in Mount Olive West, Alabama (near Georgiana) on September 17th, 1923, Hiriam was the second child of Lon and Lillie Williams.

This is a really good song that I have liked since the very first time I ever heard it. hope you enjoy it. I do it in the key of e but hank does it in d as best as I can tell.
Dont do it darlin (key of d)
(d)if youre worryin over me like Ive worried over you
Dont do it (a)darlin, dont do it (d)darlin
If you think Im missin you and Im missin kissin you
Dont do it (a)darlin, dont do it (d)darlin
I (g)gave my heart to you my dear and (d)trusted you and then
You (a)took my heart and played with it and (e)now you say were through
If you (d)think Im all alone and you feel the urge to phone
Dont do it (a)darlin, dont do it (d)darlin
If youre worryin over me like Ive worried over you
Dont do it darlin, dont do it darlin
If you think Im missin you and Im missin kissin you
Dont do it darlin, dont do it darlin
I gave my heart to you my love, I trusted it with you
You took my heart you played with it and now you say were through
Now that you are all alone and you feel the urge to phone
Dont do it darlin, dont do it darlin
