  • I LOVE HIM

  • amber1974a, This is a Jimmie Davis song recorded in 1935. One of the most popular songs of the period. So popular that Jimmie recorded about a half dozen answer songs to it. Tex Ritter also recorded it around that time.

    Wilf Carter does justice to the song more than Merle Haggard IMO.

  • Greatest song of it's time., So Simple but OH SO SWEET !!!! 

  • great song!

  • i was watching a matlock tonight 'the country boy' episode with david carradine as guest star. at the end of the show david and andy were singing this song. i don't think i had ever heard this song. i liked it so much i was moved to see who sang it. i still don't know if wilf carter is the original singer but i do like this version. merle haggard does an awesome job too..

  • The story i grew up with was my Grandad would come home from the pub and he would frisbee his hat down the hall way if it came back he'd sleep down the river if it stayed he would walk in singing this too my gran. i never met my grandad but his stories brought him to life and i've told my kids they say the same. this song was what i played when my Gran went to rest with him i made sure of that.
