Guy Clark - Rita Ballou 1990 

Have always loved this song. Surprised at how many didn't know it.

If I could writte songs like Guy Clark I would be a happy man.

epic song and performance 10 dislikes are from Willard after his disappointments

one of the best songwriters there ever was from Texas

Guy Clark. what an American treasure.

No my friend I´ve seen it too, I couldn´t miss this moment for anything, Guy Clark is a true genium.

YES.. GUY ONE OF THE GREATS..

does not get any better. first time i heard this song. Great!!

Still play a 8 track tape with this song in my old beetle!

Tribute to Guy coming December 2011...33 songs, 33 artists. All good ones, artists and songs. No phonies.

Hujo: I agree 100%. I actually think Guy is the best Texas C&W/Folk songwriter/singer ever. HIs impact/influence on Texas music is HUGE. It makes me sad to see how much he's aged in the past 5-7 years. Hope he stays healthy.

Definately, definately one of the best. Love this song too

Great collection. Love Robert Gordon.

Great to see this version ... only knew it by Vince Gill

gods above, ive enjoyed this from the cradle...and into the next, i expect.

Middle of March, 2009 and the views are up to over 2,500. A bit of improvement, but not exactly a blockbuster. Oh well, there ain't no money in poetry, but that's what sets the poet free.

I know this is the original...but Vince Gill does a GREAT version of this on his When I Call Your Name album :-) I was looking for his but found this one instead, and I must admit, I love it too!

The Craftsman at work.

“ I wish I was in those 501s...” 🤠🤠

Get ahold of his recent stuff, too. Still great shit.

Good ol' south!

0:53 if you want to skip to the song.

Eight that didn't like it? Rita must've run 'em off with no breakfast!

great video, but i'd love to see the end of that commercial, hah.

up there? he is undoubtedly a better songwriter

jjw&guy can't ask for much more?????

And a better songwriter

Is that awesome or what?

Have always loved this song. Surprised at how many didn't know it.
