Kris Kristofferson - You win again (1989) video free download

Beautiful cover of Hank Williams' song...

Kris was only about eleven when he fell in love with Hank Williams' music, feeling like a total weirdo because of that, and he did his best to get all these 78s of him ....

Hank Williams' direct and mournful expression of raw human emotions and the very heart and soul of country music came to be an important influence on Kris' own music.

He has said one of the first complete songs he ever wrote, around 1947, was a Hank Williams rip-off called "I hate your ugly face"...

You win again

Hank Williams (1952)

The news is out all over town

That you've been seen out running around

I know that I should leave but then

I just can't go, you win again

This heart of mine could never see

what everybody knows but me

Just trusting you was my great sin

What can I do? You win again

Yes, this heart of mine could never see

what everybody knows but me

Just trusting you was my great sin

What can I do? You win again

YOU WIN AGAIN

Recorded by Hank Williams, Sr.
