Several years ago, I listened to a Boxcar Willie tape (hey - it was several years ago) and this song was on it. I was quite smitten by it. It turns out it was written by Lefty Frizzel. This is a song to me that reaches down and grabs your heart strings. I had forgotten about it for several more years, then I came across Jack's (Lindapinda) site a while back and he did a cover of this song. I have been playing it for awhile now but still can't get the true emotions to come out. I am linking this video to Lindapinda's version not as a comparison, but as an easy link for people to see what I mean when I say Jack did an awesome job on this song. Please, if you like this song, you owe it to yourself to watch Jacks version that I responded to. Thanks for watching! John
