around 35 yrs back, i was a young man , a novice logger, with a rock band on the side. never payed much attention to country. then one night in my chair alone, i turnedon the "midnight special" and on that show george jones sat on a stool by himself and changed my way of appreciating the world

Country today will never touch the shoe string of this song. George was the best and he will always be loved for how real he was and how he sang what was on his mind. One of the REAL country songs and one of the best

How do you top perfection? Well, you don't. Someone like George Jones comes along once in a lifetime, and all of us were lucky enough to have been there. Oh... and if there's any doubt that this is the greatest country song of all time, well, just listen one more time.... then you'll know.

This song always choked me up when I heard it. Made me thankful that I had a wife to spend the rest of my life with. Three months ago we divorced after 19 years of marriage when she had an affair and got pregnant. On my death bed is where I'll finally let go of my love for her. I have held on to all her love notes, cards and letters thru the years. I've always loved this song but never thought that I would live it.
