this song haunted me 3 decades and I couldn't find the title until i started on the lyrics and now I have the privilige of listening to it because of you Barry, which I really appreciate.It's awesome how a young lad 's life can be told from youth to being old in one song. Thank you again Barry for the upload
You are so very welcome, I certainly share your sentiments for this song. It is one of my all time Statlers favourites, sadly I think the days are almost gone gor songwriting as heartfelt as this one, and a group like the Statlers to sing it.
Thank you for posting this! It came out when I was a new bride, 3000 miles from anyone I knew, and my new husband out to sea - Did this ever hit home for me! I loved them before, loved them even more. Have met them in person at shows, they are a great bunch of guys. Lost the recording when my house burned in '99.

Why don't they make music like this anymore? No bells or whistles, just a great sound with fantastic lyrics.

I have this album and they do the best version ever of Bob Wills' Faded Love.

@fek2000 On your recommendation I listened to The Statler Brothers version and it is great, but I think Presley's version shades it just slightly.

Readers Digest Music has a Statlers 3 cd set with this great song.

Bevy you are so right. I miss them so much. Thankfully we got to see them so many times I have lost track.

Never heard this before. I'm not sure why because it's a fantastic song, sung perfectly by the wonderful voice of Don Reid. Thanks for sharing this!
