Thanks flashbell. Charley and his band have always been one of my favorites. sure brings back memories.

[Anaheimfan]

This is one of my favorite Charlie Pride songs, next to Church In The Wildwood and Missippi Cotton Pickin Delta Town. I grew up listening to Charlie Pride, and my dad used to play a lot of his songs on the guitar.

[stalkingwolf1954]

[tomi06902]

my girl grew up on his songs all the way in Guyana. Old country music is big there esp. in the 80's.

[flashbell]

@tomi06902 , that's cool!

[leetaken1]

@tomi06902 Me too I from Guyana and thats a fact !!!

[DymenH]

@tomi06902 I am from Guyana. And like your girl I grew up listening to country music and love it.

[smokeythebear3]

@tomi06902 Wow! Who would have thought all the way to Guyana. Of course it's no surprise with music like this. I'm in Canada and grew up on Mr. Pride's beautiful songs. I still love his music.

[0JReynolds]

Ohhhh, I just love this type of music. Thank you so much, what a voice, what music.

[sexbagelsk8er]

thats a good song.

[maverickdallas100]

My Stepdad inspired me to play music when he sang Charley's songs. I learned a lot on pedal steel guitar listening to Charley's records. A great voice, a legend, with great musicians backing him up. This is country music at its finest!

[fester73666]

ONE OF THE GREATEST SINGERS IN COUNTRY MUSIC! HE JUST WANTS YOU TO SING ALONG TOO! AMAZING!

[evilfighterz]

I've been listening to Charley's music for forty years. Met his wife and two boys at a Fair back in the 70's while Charley was on stage. In his 70's and still touring. Not many voices like his anymore.

[SuperSkyQueen]

[buschdrinker5764]

i love this song

[buschdrinker5764]

i love song

[jtyson55]

how any human can express any kind of hate toward Carlie Pride seems imposible to me. but then again, i realize, history is ugly and often wrong. I, myself, find it imposible to have anything but love for the man. Forced to think on things I dont want to think on, I realize the man had haters , and lots of them. I accept that evil, and yet he be beautiful! I wish this thing were not Charlie Pride, but it is...I just enjoy the music, peace loving, friendly, funny and beautiful inocent music.

[yorkpattie1976]

Yeah! Such a nice voice.

[allisonfair]

i just love you..i was listening to you on 4 track!

[sweetman691]

the best county siner ever come to cardiff my friend

[gdadsnoop]

Charlie is now and always will be the Pride of Country music. This music got me thru some real tough times. Thanks Charlie, your the best..

[skyangel1100]

Charly Pride is my favorite country singer of all times,all his songs have a great message and i love all of them.This one makes me think of the summer time,sitting in a old beat up ford truck and going down a old country dirt road with a mason jar of ice tea and smelling a country garden,such as green onions,potatoes,tomatoes,and there is no air in the truck but all the windows are down because its 105 degrees outside,all this is happing in my home state TEXAS.

[1venavena]

A touching song with a nice melody

[Candy1989ify]

I love this one.

[mattjoeryan]

My fiance has this on original record and she sings it to me everytime, and acts it out too, when I'm over at her house so that I always remember that She loves me and vise versa.

[bt51]

Charley, you're still one of the BEST. Seventy four years old and still touring.

[sizzled28]

I know his son Carlton Pride in San Marcos, Tx. He plays reggae music.

[efaog]

@sizzled28

his sons name is dion pride and he sings the same kind of music as charley.

[sizzled28]

@efaog

You better google Carlton Pride. I know what I am talking about. Carlton even has some music vids on YouTube with a band called ZION. Trust me. Charlie also has a head-injured daughter at Tangram facility in San Marcos. Have seen Charley there with my own eyes.

[freebird1969]

This song used to get regular rotation on my FM back in the early 70s. Nice .

[desmondpg]

[TheLeilaJan]

[flashbell]

W3 just deleted comments and blocked a user because they left nasty remarks. This is a family entertainment channel.

[Buddawg1960]

You go, boy! Kick those filthy talking people off of here!

[flashbell]

@Buddawg1960, we do it and we block them too.

[thebozeman1]

What a voice!! He truly is an amazing singer, one that doesn't need a studio to sound good. His voice is right on when he sings live, as his recordings.

[usaruss]

Passed through Branson some years ago. Didn't have time to go to his theater. Wish I had.

[hannaremnant]

nice

[greene64]

If my ring hurts your finger take it out of my arsehole!

[Havhestur]

Charley performed here a couple of weeks ago. He still has that magic - 100% Charley!!! Love you, man...

[sususs1947]

[hdiylove7]

Just stopping in to share National Sunday Law by A. Jan Marcussen=)

He had a choice between professional baseball or a singing career. I"m glad he chose singing. He left a mark on country music that will never be replaced.

[RiverDymondStevens]

My Dad is 44 and he claims that Charlie Pride has a unique voice. He heard Mr. Pride growing up in a small canadian town called Eskasoni N.S.

[flashbell]

Where is that? Is this Germany?

[wiwhiteboy]

charlie is legendary!

[bo31red38]

That is Charley! He can sing!

[icemelongreen]

When I was a kid my father searched hi and low for this song. I was with him in a store when he found it. He was so excited that he embarrassed me in front of this lady. " I found it ! I found it ! he kept saying I wanted to hide. Yep good old Pop.

[maseiber]

One of the BEST Country Legends there is or ever has been. Such a nice man and so appreciative to his many loyal fans. YES, I'm one of them. I remember him since I was a young child, I'm 45 now but grew up on nothing but country music in our house.  Love Mr. Pride ! Wish he'd come back to Pigeon Forge, TN again! Saw him a few years ago, awesome show.

[gurlie1980]

going to see charlie pride in july he is performing in newfoundland

[LONLEYGIRL1976]

my mom won a contest, when she was young.And

[FoolYouJustGotServed]

[topmjr]

Baseball may have lost a great potential player, but country music benefitted from a great star!!!

[smilingtribe]

one of the best country singers in the world lov him to bits

[97casscade]

My fave, fave, fave Charley Pride song!

[harleyspoon]

I coached football at Memphis State in the mid '70's & I recruited Charley's son, Kraig. When I went to their home in North Dallas, I could not have been treated nicer. Charley & family were so fine & kind. Charley & I went to see Jesuit (the team Kraig played for) play Houston St. Thomas in 20 degree temp for the Catholic State Championship. Charley had some anti-freeze on him so we stayed reasonably thawed out. It was a great game & I signed Kraig to a full scholarship.

[Blackhamer101]

dude my dad loves this song!

[flashbell]

Cool song written by Don Robertson/John Crutchfield/Doris Clement.

[helenmain]

Thank you,one of my best memories was seeing him him perform in Aberdeen many years ago.

[cristalle1]

Wonderful. I was very impressed to hear he flew all the way to Alberta to refund a Canadian fan her money when she was ripped off by a ticket resaler.

What a class act!

[rushfiend]

Charley had alot to prove by being a black man in a world of white! I think that he more than succeeded, and he cried when he was inducted into the Hall of Fame!!! Great man!!!

[flashbell]

Charley Pride is cool, unlike Obama!

[LadyofWar1980]

@flashbell What does Obama have to do with Charley Pride?

[char451]

lol old songs

[PJC14]

My favourite alltime "Charlie Pride" record. My "Ford Capri" was stolen in 1976. I was more upset that my "Charlie Pride " cassette was still in the player. I got the car back but not the tape. At least the thief had taste.

[nostalgiahistoria67]

Awesome! One of Charlie's all-time best!

[62reasons]

My father had all of his albums; he met him when he (Mr. Charley Pride) visited Canada.

He had a HUGE following up here in Canada.  Well loved and respected!!

[vifromalberta]

I love Charlie Pride. I had all his LP albums.. He is so talented. God gave him a wonderful voice.

I just get so relaxed by the sound of his voice.. Memories of special times.

[pinkfloyd59]

I couldn't agree with you more. I don't listen to the "new country sound". I stick to the country legends of yesterday. pinkfloyd59 "an oldie, oldie country lover till I die" (-:)(-:)

[livingadream2]

Another classic by a great legend!

[sherii543]

MY DAD LOVE THIS SONG RIP

[s2theydney]

mine too.

[poolguy1962]

Great description, so true...and I'm not really a big country fan, however these ARE what country songs are suppose to be...

[s2theydney]

I couldn't agree with the description more.

seriously.

Most of yall just don't understand.

I was raised on this music, and to see nobody EVER play it on the radio is sp unfortunate.

[flashbell]

I played the crap out of this song when I was a DJ on KROF AM 960, Lafayette, LA.

[s2theydney]

haha. good.

[katondoboys]

Great song indeed...this is what i call music

[sherii543]

cool

[GrlLeastLikelyTo]

Did Tammy Wynette do a cover of this one? I think I've heard her sing it.

[lasexymame]

timeless, why don't they make songs like this anymore.

[smahafutau]

i understand we all need time alone.......but why do you always leave your ring at home......... its happening to me.......

[4899702]

same here my love....sad but \true

[troniecat]

the lyrics are so deep,this is genieus but thats charley,what else would you expect...he is the best...I grew up listening to him and I am singing his songs in karaoke bars to this day...we love you charlie

[buckwheat39]

he sings some good country music man

[afrikawatch]

my parents used to play this when i was young, nice song, its timeless and still relevant

[dastardlydude67]

If anyone had the balls to do something like this in 2008, they'd be more popular than Abba was in the 70's.

Being incredibly gifted, and a genius at the same time, is one hell of a combination.

[chesawitch]

thank you, I love charley

[BOOCT2006]

My Dad got me hook on good old Charley,back in the 60's thank you

[jackthepoet61]

yes yes yes yes
