I'm not familiar with it. @FourWalls is the expert. She can probably tell you all about this. Without looking it up!

I just know that Floyd Tillman wrote it and had the first recording of it. I also remember Ernest Tubb's version.
Oh, and that this was the only song not by Eddy Arnold to be #1 for nearly two years.

I have not heard that song. I do like Country Music. Have you ever listened to Alan Jackson? He is good.

I like your painting with the lines of crop converging in the middle distance.

Well, I don't remember it (it was a little more than a decade before I was born!), but I definitely know the song.
Floyd Tillman wrote it and had the first recording of it. Of course, back then, when someone recorded a song and had a hit everyone and his brother came along and covered it.
