"Low Down Blues" is a song written by Hank Williams and issued by MGM Records in 1954.

"Low Down Blues" was released as 78 single more than a year after Williams' death. A demo recording featuring only the singer and his guitar, the track shows Hank's affinity for the blues and was likely recorded in 1951. ^[1] Like his #1 hit " Long Gone Lonesome Blues," the song references suicide by drowning ("I went to the river but the water's too cold") and also references the Ernest Tubb hit " Walkin' the Floor Over You" ("I walked the floor 'til I wore out my shoes"), which he would allude to again on " Your Cheatin' Heart." The song could be interpreted as being a metaphor for Williams' chronic back pain (it is commonly accepted that he had long suffered from an undiagnosed case of spina bifida); the song begins with the lines, "Lord I went to the doctor, he took one look/He said the trouble with you ain't in my book..."

Billy Fury recorded two versions for Decca Records. Charlie Pride also covered the song for RCA.
