Not long ago, this song was featured with Ricky Van Shelton and Merle Haggard was playing the guitar. It was at a fair, I think. Since, Ricky's has been pulled. Does anybody know why.
i never thought Country music could have the ultimate powerful serious inspiring song not until i first heard this song in 1972 after buying the Best of the Best of Merle Haggard album on 8 track tape which just came out that year.
This song alway's reminds me of My Uncle who sing's this song so well. And of when i was a kid, we used to go to a Labor camp in Grayson California and sing Gospel song's to the Laborer's. They were the people Merle sing's of in this song. They traveled around from Farm to farm, where ever the work led them. It was a memory I'll alway's cherish.
i'm not a big country music fan but when Merle Haggard and Marty Robbins sings these type of songs my heart melts. This big man typing this comment posted is reduced to a small child
@BBQFanNo1 ITS OK WE ALL MELT WHEN ,MERLE SINGS I AM 50 AND REMEMBER MY MAMMA SINGING SILVER WINGS AND STILL CRY EVERTIME I HEAR MERLE SING SO LET IT FLOW
Great song, Merle and I love the way to sing. I loved also the way Ricky Van Shelton sang this song. He looked as happy as could be...probably that you backed him with your graciousness. Love you and Ricky.
My mamas eyes always sad, cause my daddy always did the best he could for his big family. My mama had hungry eyes, until she looked at my daddy's eyes. My daddy say we'll make it, This song goes to my mothers hungry eyes; Love Family
