Thomas's legacy has been sustained by his songs, which were revived by musicians beginning in the folk music revival of the early 1960s. Among the first of these was "Honey, Won't You Allow Me One More Chance", which was reinterpreted by Bob Dylan on the album "The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan" in 1963 under the title "Honey, Just Allow Me One More Chance". Dylan may have been introduced to Thomas through Harry Smith's 1952 compilation "Anthology of American Folk Music", which includes two of Thomas' songs, "Old Country Stomp" and "Fishing Blues". Dylan may have heard Thomas's song on the 1962 album "Henry Thomas Sings the Texas Blues". Dylan reworked the melody and almost totally rewrote the lyrics, but he credited Thomas as co-writer on his album "Freewheelin"'.
