Merle Haggard es uno de los cantantes de country más influyentes desde Hank Williams. Su carrera comenzó cuando se coló en los camerinos de la leyenda del country Lefty Frizzell cuando era adolescente. Impresionado por sus canciones, Frizzell se negó a volver al escenario hasta que Haggard cantara una canción – a un público que tuvo una cálida acogida. Junto a Buck Owens y Wynn Stewart, fue un pionero de la escena country de Bakersfield en los 60

G#D# I've seen how you tremble whenever he walks through your mind Stirring up memories that cloud up your eyes C#G# Where the light of our love ought to shine
G#G#7 I know that he hurt you and hurt you so bad, C# He must have been going insane D# Now I finally learned how to hold you together G# When somebody mentions his name
Chorus: C# He's just a ghost story so don't let him scare you G# He's not really there like he seems D# And tonight when I hold you I'll hold you so close G# I'll love him right out of your dreams
I'm sure that he's called you and told you that our love can't last But don't you believe him 'cause honey he's wrong He's never been right in the past
So don't let him haunt you and tell you those lies He just can't admit that you're free The next time he calls you just hand me the phone And see if he'll say that to me
