SALT LAKE CITY
(Curly Putman / Ronnie Wilkins)


Hank Williams Jr. - 1966





Sun's up, better get up and make the rounds
All alone on my own here in this ol' town
Of Salt Lake City

Gotta find work, forget the hurt 
And how she put me down
For a man who didn't care
But with fast talk and curly hair
He took her from me 
And Salt Lake City

Night has come, day is done
But there's no job to be found
In Salt Lake City

Room's cold, no one to hold
So I just walk around
And think of the times that she
Said that she loved me
But that's just a mem'ry
In Salt Lake City

I should pack my things and go
But my heart keeps sayin' no
Some day she'll come back to me
And Salt Lake City
