This song was written by Curly Putnam (Green Green Grass of Home), and it sounds a bit like that one as well. First commercial recording was by Charley Pride in 1967, on the album "Pride of Country Music". I'm partial to Charley's version, but probably mostly because that is when I first heard the song. Roy gives a great interpretation and performance on this song as well.
