if i didnt shave so often i reckon i cud grow a kenny rogers style beard, but it itches so i shave it off, can someone please give me any advice about the itching please?
this song means so much to me...my uncle taught me this song whn i was a lil girl and then he died in a house fire shortly after...i miss him so much...rip uncle glenn and smantha(age 3) i luv u guys so much<3
oh wow my mum used to play this in the car on really long drives, we used to sing together as she drove a gd ten miles under the speed limit LOL, miss those days!
thats funny you said that because i too for years thought he said four hundred children. it was only when i got older i figured out he was saying four hungry children lol
heard this song when i was 12 going to school and loved it. Surprise to me because i grew up in the hood. Kenny come down to the hood, 40's and ho's on me !
someone mentioned to me the other day about an army wife that left her amputee husband and four children. This song IMMEDIATELY sprung to mind, and it's been on my mind ever since.
Youtube is so great in this respect. All I do is come to here, type in the song name, and my jonesing for a particular piece of music is done. I thank the author of this video, and all others taking the time and effort to post...this aspect of youtube is the best part of it!
I remember hearing this song as a kid . . . and I swear I thought the line went "You picked a fine time to leave me Lucille . . . Four hundred children and a crop in the field . . ." And I thought "Well shit! I'd leave too if there were four hundred children at home!!" Great song! Reminds me of an old Mexican restaurant I used to go to as a kid . . .
@jubjub2112 ummmm like this is SO WEIRD but i totally thought the same thing about the 400 children just the other day i heard it said 4 children and I'm like omg DUHHH i always thought like maybe she did charity or something and helped feed 400 children LOL and i'm like what a weirdo I am for just thinking that deeply about a line in a song. THEN I SEE YOUR COMMENT! I'm like HAH would ya look at that? :D
@MsPaparatz Ha!! Apparently this has been a common misconception with this song!! I love songs like this!! I call it the "Pussy-Cow" syndrome . . . where you hear something incorrectly as a child and assume your whole life it is correct . . . until that fateful day . . . whenever it may come . . . that you are belting it out with all your might . . . and everyone around you laughs! Awesome!
@cccrazybeautifulll :-) Just makes this song that much sweeter . . . always brings me back to being a little kid sitting in my favorite Mexican restaurant . . . I still sing the wrong words on purpose . . . Love it!!
@99840sauerkraut :-) Yes . . . I learned the real lyrics about 15 or 20 years ago . . . but to this day my brain still automatically goes to 400 children . . . Ha! Love it!! Excellent song either way! :-)
@jubjub2112 I found this cuz I changed the words to fit a song for my sisters 50th bday. I was laughing cuz I thought the same thing as a kid. I also thought the Beach Boy song, Barbara Ann was Baberann. I am not even sure what a boberann is!

@sullivanandlithium Thanks! Such a great song!! I would have to venture a guess that a good 80% to 90% or more of those of us who first heard this song as kids originally thought he was saying 400 children! We stand together in solidarity! :-)
@jubjub2112 haha..me too.....in fact, it wasn't until i turned 14 did i discover that it's almost impossible to have more than 10 children at a time..400 children..indeed!!!!!
