Great job! Hard to beat that song. Guy Clarke is a genius, he and Rodney Crowell have written some good songs. My favorites are Dublin Blues, Black Diamond Strings and this one. I've been sitting here playing along with you. Thanks! Carl
Both their CD's list this song as being co-written by Guy and Rodney together. They also collaborated on "She's Crazy for Leavin". I think they make a great team.
I saw a guitar pull years ago on PBS that Rodney was a part of and he told of how Guy called him with this song completed and sang it to him over the phone.
Rodney's contribution was to beef up the melody and chord structure.
I have an old blue shirt like that; the problem is I have 100 of them! And I'm married to some one who does not like it and tries to throw away that old blue shirt!
Amazing.

Yes. They're both credited as writers.

Lyrically, it's all Guy.

I have always agreed with the sentiment here!

Hey Uncle Roy, if it came down to a choice, I believe I'd have to keep the blue shirt... and let the wife go. -- Keep Smilin'
