    Lowell Lee Morse

  • Tom T.Hall is pure country

  • tom t hall can flat write the hell out of a song,nuff said.

  • Good sing, my parents liked him.

    thumbs up

  • This always makes me cry.

  • One of Tom T.'s best song!

  • I personally feel that Tom T Hall taught me more about life than any other artist of any medium or genre. A real American poet

  • No one can tell a story in a song like Tom T. Hall. There is something about him that tells me that he may have lived some of his songs. Like a Grandma Moses painting, this mans performances and his songs are priceless.

  • Great tune by one of the all time best Tommy T.

  • best songwriter ever to me and this performance just gave me goose bumps! my dad turned me on to mr tom t. hall when i was a child and i went to nashville and i hope to be able to write a aaba song as good as his story songs and if i dont thats ok i can always listen to the master right here!

  • One of the best.

  • Wow! Always loved this song. And tonight a friend posted up how he loved flying into Chicago from the east - and that made me think of "I Flew Over Our House" - and then I found this!!! Thanks!

    SHE HAS BEEN LOOKING FOR SOME ONE THAT WAS A CHILD AT THAT TIME THAT SHE BABY SET WITH , IF SOMEONE REMEMBERS HER AND WOULD LIKE TO FIN HER POST HERE I WIL CK B

  • A favorite of mine! Parts of it bring tears to my eyes!

  • As a small child, I had a babysitter whose name happened to be Barbara Walker. The first time I heard this song, my chin dropped at that last line. Of course I know it most likely isn't the *same* Barbara Walker, but I found it interesting.

  • @cruztacean contact me i think i know the barbara walker you remember baby sitting you , she has been looking for a child that she took care of... email me at... janetvince46@yahoo.com

  • I'm glad to see that Mr. Hall is still among us. When his time comes, I plan to pay personal tribute to him by serving hot bologna, eggs, and gravy for supper that night.

  • T.T.H.---TIMELESS - TRUE - HONEST

  • You explain so well how it’s hard to go back home.

  • My mom is from Olive Hill, Ky. She dated Tom for a very short time in high school, as she put it, she was a cheerleader and he a football player. It didn't last long but every year we had to go to Olive Hill to hear Tom T. play in his home town. I always loved it!! When I had children I made sure they knew his music, it is so innocent and clean, not like the music now a days. I'm so glad that he is doing well and I pray he keeps writing!!!!!!!!

  • So True

  • All of Tom T Halls songs have everyday stories in them, but to tell the whole story in a short song is unbelievable. It is the work of a master and Tom T is one. I have listened to his songs for forty years and they still sound as good as they did all those years ago, 

  • One word about all Tom's songs, BRILLIANT>

  • Absolutely one of his best---this one and Watermelon wine, I flew overour house last night,I LOVE, and Clayton Delayney are some really good ones

  • Dam we listened to this Tom for years way back 8 tracks .Would love to here all of them. wolf crick, etc etc.

  • THANKS!

  • There are songs.........and there are songs!!

  • Great song from a Country Music legend. I used "Homecoming" to help get me an "A" for a project in Mrs. Ellis' English class at TCHS in 1974. Thanks, Tom T!

  • Lord I remember listening to this on 8 track!

    RIP Mama

  • greatness!! he puts um in the pocket

  • This is one of my favorite videos too!

  • Tom T , Thats my man, if he can;t tell a story & sing a great song, nobody can!!"

  • great stuff, one of my fav songwriters ever, Ramblin Wayn

  • a true legend agreat song

  • been yrs since iheard this thanks whos got his album Wolf creek Pass

  • Flat out the best "story song" ever written. It says volumes with just the perfect touch of subtlety. If it were a true story I'd bet money its was the kid's last time to see the old man.

  • Yeah, you know it was, went on down the road and that was it. I bet he lost the number.

  • The story teller.. wonderful song, sure makes me think about life and my parents. Makes me a little sad...

  • good tom t . truly one of the greats! look's like i'm not the only one that hear's this magic.

  • good tom t truly one of the greatest ! look's like i'm not the only one that hears this magic!

  • I hear the magic too. I'm 35 and just discovered Tom Hall a few weeks ago and I can't get enough of him. This guy was a musical genius. I've talked to my dad and he knew all about him. Wish he would have played his music when I was a child.

  • Classic! Sounds as great as ever!!!

  • Tom T is a genius - wonderful heartfelt song.

  • My favorite TTH song, so poignant, so understated, and a story that captures a whole lifestyle. A million stars for this one. And into my faves.

  • @bulbheadmyass Also one of my favs along with 'old five and dimers like me'

    I love the line at the end about country people not cleaning anybody else's shoes.

    You got that song finished yet?........you said you would let me know.

    Hello, Bulbheadmyass.....what does that name mean?....how did you come by it?

    Sounds very rude.

  • @NAIAD49 Hi. I had forgotten your username and was trying to find it. Glad you sent this reminder comment.

    Yes, I did post it. It's called "A Warm Place to Stay" on my bulbheadmyass channel. It was inspired by Tom T. Hall and an unnamed rodeo star. I think when you listen to it, you will agree that if Tom T.. Hall were a woman, he mighta written this song. It's a funny story, I think you'll like it. It is currenly the featured vid on my channel. I'll also send you by PM.

  • @bulbheadmyass I've always loved this one too,and definitely on of my favorites by The Storyteller.

  • thank you for posting this. a true classic song

  • A true master craftsman. Thanks for posting this.

  • one of a kind.great story teller.this is his best song

  • I grew up listening to Tom T Hall everyday and i still hear a new one every now and then, and i can honestly say i've never once heard one of his songs i didn't like.

  • This song was written for my mother and father (Freddie Jim Hartline and Jeanette L Hartline) Fred and Jan I was born in 1964 and his parents lived next to mine in a trailer park in Grand Prairie, Texas my mother had the original on a 45 rpm record signed by him on the reverse side was Mr Bojangles.

  • awesome

  • I just love this song . Tom's first single from 1969 -- classic !!

  • Awesome

  • I first became aware of Tom T in the early 1970s. 35 years of so later I still think he is great. This is one of his best.
