Herbert Paul Gilley (1929–1957) was an American country music lyricist and promoter from Kentucky. Though little known during his lifetime, he is recognized posthumously for potentially writing lyrics to numerous famous songs. Key works include 'Cold, Cold Heart' and 'I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry' for Hank Williams. Other songs attributed to him are 'I Overlooked an Orchid', 'If Teardrops Were Pennies', and 'Crazy Arms'. His contributions remain largely uncelebrated in mainstream country music history, although a dedicated day and biography were established in his honor.
