@coolheir CONWAY TWITTY AND SAM ,FROM SAM AND DAVE ,DO THEIR VERSION OF THIS SONG ,I BELIEVE WEEKS BEFORE HE PASSED , BRILLIANTLY SAD ,,,,AWESOME PERFORMANCE
Around 1975 in a bus station Atl, Ga I was 17 and had went with a friend to see his brother in what was then called hot atl. Riding that bus out of town with the rain coming down somebody setting behind us had a tape player and this was played over and over. Trailway bus. No way in hell would I let my kid go off to Atl on a bus, but time were not like they are today back in 75. Good time, good music. Rocco

Lying on a bunk in Ft Gordon Ga., waiting to go to VIetnam, raining like hell and so depressed, and this song sums it up.

Tony Joe wrote this song in 1962. Many have recorded it, but no one does it like the 'Swamp Fox'
