"There Stands the Glass" is a country song written by Russ Hull, Mary Jean Shurtz, and Audrey Grisham. Originally recorded by Blaine Smith in 1952, it was a hit for Webb Pierce in 1953. It was Pierce's fifth release to hit number one on the country chart. It spent 27 weeks on the chart and was at the top for 12 weeks. Bob Dylan said that "The star of this song is the empty bourbon glass, and it's built around the same kind of crack guitar sound as on a Hank Williams record, as well as the magical open-string, strummed chord." In 2024, Rolling Stone ranked the song at #127 on its 200 Greatest Country Songs of All Time ranking.
