Merle Haggard

Merle Ronald Haggard (born April 6, 1937) is an American country music song writer, singer, guitarist, fiddler and instrumentalist. Along with Buck Owens, Haggard and his band The Strangers helped create the Bakersfield sound, which is characterized by the unique twang of Fender Telecaster and the unique mix with the traditional country steel guitar sound, new vocal harmony styles in which the words are minimal, and a rough edge not heard on the more polished Nashville Sound recordings of the same era. more »

I've seen how you tremble whenever he walks through your mind
Stirring up memories that cloud up your eyes
Where the light of our love ought to shine
I know that he hurt you and hurt you so bad he must have been going insane
Now I finally learned how to hold you together when somebody mentions his name
He's just a ghost story so don't let him scare you he's not really there like he seems
And tonight when I hold you I'll hold you so close
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
He's just a ghost story
He's just a ghost story
