Williams Jr., Hank - At The First Fall Of Snow Lyrics

This song l heard when l was a teenager and l loved it ! No one can write songs like this man ! The words tears you apart ! He tells you a story ! His real life ! Love this man !

This is the saddest county song I have ever heard. It speaks volumes about the child and infant mortality rate before we had things like vaccines and antibiotics.

I love all the old stuff. Hank Sr, Johnny Cash, Conway Twitty etc... Today's country music doesn't appeal to me at all.

I listen to several genres of music, Classic Rock, Rock, Alternative, Grunge, Rap (older stuff), The Oldies, and Classic Country Music. My favorites, not in a particular order.

Hank was one of a kind .still love to listen to him.

Lending a listening ear to a person in distress can be a real act of kindness. You are really helping that person maybe more than you realize. I know this from personal experience and that is the picture i get from this song..

Love that very sad song. Hank Williams was the greatest!
Thank you for sharing!
"If the good Lord's will'n , and the Creeks don't rise, we'll see ya again b'fore long".

You take the voice of country music and combine it with a story and what do you get? A country classic. A tragic story told in a song in that unmistakable style of Hank's.

Thank you Parker.

after 67 years I'm still listening to this song. and the tears came again.

We love that song very mush

ill forget this song because i lost my first born baby girl literally at the fall of snow

A fan since 1955 Gary hunter

The best singer in my book. He was my brother best singer too, but he past away 51 years ago today. Today is my Hank Williams music day, it bring good old memories of my brother

Glenn Johnson Well,after all these years i can say this is the first time i have heard this version.Only knew the demo version with Hank and his guitar.Great to hear this radio show version.Thanks for this upload.Brilliant.

nice country folk song

Hank Williams—The true, heart filled voice.

This song remember of my grandfather he lost his first daughter and the man ever cried he listen to this song when he was drunk he would ball

Time to hide and cry after a couple of beers... Hold your youngins a little tighter tonight. It wasn’t too long ago that poor folks lost their babies over sicknesses like the flu and colds every winter.

Heaven the LORD forgives you people sins

Beautiful

This is country music at its best don’t get no better

I remember hearing this on an old floor model wooden radio and I loved this song and would look in the back of the radio trying to see Hank Williams standing back there. That was many years ago and the song has not changed over the years.

I have listened to Hank since the early `50,one of the best singers there is. We don`t have any new singers that even come close to Hank. Guess a couple of my favorites are Wedding Bells & Mansion on the Hill. I like all of his music. To bad we lost him at such a early age.

Love to hear music that is real music. B Crites

Back when Hank Sr. was alive, it was fairly common for babies and small children to die of infectious diseases (like diptheria and flu) when winter weather arrived - this is why today we vaccinate children to prevent them from getting such diseases.

Nobody can sing a tear jerker like Hank

That's because he LIVED his songs. The sadness came from his heart!

My mother used to sing this as she rocked my baby sister

hits you straight in the heart this one

Gibb onyour n

Real Country thank God for youtube

I lost my son drug overdose one year ago 34

Barb Ramsey sad for your loss

So sorry, lost my nephew at 27, so sad

Wow!!! Beautiful!!!

Ilove this song great job hank williams

I'm 10 and love this song my dad showed it to me

All Hail Hank- 20 year old here

Jacob Andres Hank Williams singing theres a singing water fall

this song makes me cry , my fiancee lost her first , the pain she goes through each day , each time she cries on my shoulder, saddens me , I wipe her tears and try to let her know hes up in heaven looking down , and that it's alright, I let her know I love her , god blessed us though with some good news and the fear that it will happen again is scary , it's a touchy song to me it's like almost all of his songs I can relate to, I lost my mom just before mothers day , I suffered from drinking , and there's been times when it was just me and my guitar. no country singer these days would understand, there's a few musicians though who actually write god songs that I can relate to and I'll give them credit , but I don't like the style of music, I love Hank Williams and George Jones.

what has happened to country music?! why has REAL talent been thrown out the window?

+austin craig they are still great players, they just play shitty songs... based on what the bigshots can sell..

It all has  to do with money , nothing else !!!!!

austin craig Guess you haven't heard of Cody Jinks.

marinesniper195 Just listened to several songs. No comparison. Cody is mediocre. Still better than most today. For whatever it’s worth.

I really wish I knew

This is one of Hank's best. I don't know when this version was recorded. . The original recording I had heard was just Hank, and his guitar. This is definitely a finished product.

+Bob Harris if you can, advertise it on E-BAY.

Bob, I will keep it :) It's a great record and I love the song.I will hold on to it. Thank you.

+Bob Harris Correction: Go to Google, ask for Bob's Somewhere in time country. https://plus.google.com/105962775311011141745

Richard Skola -I show the first recording of this with just his guitar to be Aug'48-May '49. Then with the band on Mothers Best Flour Show #6-42 Jan-Mar '51. This would be his first time with Jerry Rivers and Don Helms. The way the steel starts out does not sound like Don Helms. Has a high pitch to it. The first with his guitar were on the Johnnie Fair Syrup Shows over KWKH Shreveport, La. from Aug '48-May '49.There were 33 of these type songs that were later put with a band. Wrote by Lorene Rose.

@Bas Binsbergen To someone who wants it, the record is PRICELESS! I have a copy in good+ condition. If you collect records, a good 78 is really NOT good. It is grey & hisses as its played. I AM going to replace mine with, hopefully, a V++ or E copy when I find one on eBay.

what a great singer gone way to early. listen to all Hanks songs.

Look at the legacy he left for us to have, and enjoy. Last I heard, there are about 400 songs he recorded.

Love Hank Sr there will be another

wow that's a really sad song

Yes, as are most of Hank's songs. He lived many of these songs. Google "Luke the Drifter"- you'll find some more 'tear jerkers' there!

God bless you dad.xxxx. Topsy.

Oh my gosh, I think that's the saddest song I've ever heard!

Ps Wilbur Try The Blind Child by Hank

Hank sang what he felt

Don Helms Jerry Rivers Sammy Pruett Hillous Butram

Right on.

thaink jesus oldbuddy for hank

This man is a true legion, not just in Country Music but music in general. Thanks Hank for all the great memory your music has filled our hearts.

If I am not mistaken and I don't believe I am this was Molly O'DAYS song hank didn't sing this until after her recording

Your as lost as the song sings

OLE HANK Sr. WAS THE BEST, THE REST OF THE STANKS AND MOST CLUMPTREE SLANGERS TODAY ALL SUX - THAT IS THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH.

DEPENDS ON WHT'S GROWIN'.
