Men With Broken Hearts

This song was written and sung by Hank Williams (Sr., I probably need not add) under the pseudonym "Luke the Drifter". It is powerful and a little depressing so some of you might not want to listen to it. Basically, the song is about people who have been crushed under the weight of the world and the law. Luke the Drifter is crying out on behalf of grace over law for sufferers.

I could only find this song performed by Hank, Sr., Hank, Jr., and Hank III. I'm not a big fan of the latter two but I love Hank, Sr. I believe he was a certifiable genius and (as Hermann Hesse described Dostoevsky) a sick prophet. As you can see below, the song also touched Elvis. - DOB
