While this tune was written by Tom T. Hall, it just sounds like he took the melody to "Harper Valley PTA" and wrote a new song with that. Granted, it's not bad, it just has that too-familiar feeling to it. If you haven't heard of Margaret before, she had her hand in writing some big hits for other artists such as "Mountain Of Love" for David Houston and "Reconsider Me" by Narvel Felts (which was also recorded by a handful of others). She was a fine singer in both rockabilly and country, as evidenced by this 1968 single which didn't chart. Last I heard, she was still pretty active in recent years! Enjoy!
