His story is so fantastic. Trading 2 chickens for his banjo at age 12 with a musical family and grandpa jones and friends. I can just imagine their back/front yard gatherings. Just fantastic taste of true Americana. Just love it!
I’d go up town and grab 5:01 a Pepsi out of the machine at the Mobil station then back to the little home I grew up in. In the basement I’d tune in WWL and do my homework in jr college. King Edward cigars and the truckers weather on the interstates and Buck Owen Tiger by the tail and me made straight A’s 😆
Beautiful song but so sad. Only Jerry could have done it justice with his soft and awesome voice. There was nothing that he couldn’t sing. Miss him so much. Sing for God and the Angles now sweet Jerry. Always love and remember you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Everything in your home and your office, including your vehicle and all the food in your refrigerator was brought to you by a truck truckers are the backbone of this nation
I can remember watching all those great country music shows as a kid. That was country music back then. This so called country music today isn’t worth listening to.
I heard this song in my teen years and then later on I read about a cult that took over a town and this cult did exactly like the hippies did in CW McCall's song. Google "Rajneeshpuram" and you can read all about it.
06/06/24: I actually woke up humming this song, yesterday a.m. Then found it on Utub last p.m.Now, it appears again. MESSAGE FROM BEYOND?? Not sure. But as retired trucker, maybe just early onset dementia.😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅!
The fact that Floyd Cramer was more than able to hold his own against “Boots” Randolph and Chet Atkins speaks volumes about his ability, talent and skill.
