Price hit Nashville in the early 1950s, rooming for a short time with Hank Williams. When Williams died, Price took over Williams' band, the Drifting Cowboys, and had minor success. He was the first artist to have a hit with "Release Me" (1953), a song made famous by Engelbert Humperdinck in 1967. However, Price became one of the stalwarts of the grinding, honky tonk music that became even more popular in the early 1950s with such singers as Hank Williams, Lefty Frizzell, Webb Pierce and others. Price developed the famous "Ray Price Shuffle Beat" that is heard on "Crazy Arms," which served as the beat for many honky-tonk classics since then.

In My LIfe Lyrics

Ray Price

(John Lennon - Paul McCartney)
There are places I'll remember all my life
Though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain.
All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life, I've loved them all.
But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one that compares with you
And these mem'ries lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new.
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life, I love you more.

There are places I'll remember all my life
Though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain.
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think
About them in my life, I love you more.
In my life, I love you more...
