[larryroc73]

[honey403512001]

They don't come no better than Hag!!!!!!!!!!!

[mackyphoo]

i love this song ive never heard it like this .its awsom.

[lornajade16]

LOVE just LOVE this man xxx

[DOMERAISER]

Merle lets it out real good.

If you want a really shit-ass drunk song about losing a woman, look for Hasil Adkins doing "She Thinks I Still Care", from his "Achy-Breaky HaHa" cd. I think it is not on youtube.

[DOMERAISER]

Hey, edwardshaw, don't you know all singers are prima donnas? I was listening to an interview with Mick Jagger and he acknowledges that EGO is inherent in all singers.

Merle's been in the business for nearly 60 years as a major force and has even opened for Bob Dylan. YEAH, he's that Fking Okie from Muskogee, but still, he writes good stuff.

[edwardshaw1]

You can just about tell from looking at this guy that he's a

f-----g prima donna.

[bilgeratjim]

WTF?? The crowd applauds louder for some shit-ass horn section than they do for Hags solo? Musta been a bunch of Tony llama wearing. lonestar drinkin' yuppie assholes.

[patkralc1]

The best of many entertainers' & so handsome!

[patsaxon]

This is a much better version from the original version!

[beautifulsarah100]

Every time I open up the comment box on a Merle video, I'm sitting here thinking: What the fuck am I gonna say? What can you say about Merle? No English words do him justice - words like Awesome, Great, The Best, Spectacular. Those words are cheap. Merle defies all words.

[SteelguitarLane]

Sucks that they wouldn't show Norm's intro

[Highsmith29]

Merle at his best.................Nuff said
