Hank Williams

(song-title sonnet)

----

Hey, good lookin’

I ain’t got nothing but time

on the banks of the old Pontchartrain.

I can’t get you off of my mind.

----

I won’t be home no more,

I’m so lonesome I could cry —

howlin’ at the moon,

long gone lonesome blues.

----

Everything’s okay:

baby we’re really in love.

I saw the light,

there’ll be no teardrops tonight.

----

I can’t help it (if I’m still in love with you).

Why don't you love me?
