    my question is: where the fuck is mustache ride ?

  • @boboocraig and @reconray47. You are in my thoughts too as I lost my father a few weeks ago - my mother had been married over 50 years and I went to see Don with him England for a birthday surprise many years ago. We played this at his funeral.

  • like i said before you only marry your best friend if you want the marriage to last. best friends can tell each other anything. once a long time ago a man told me what a best friend was. a best friend will help you bury the body and keep his mouth shut.

  • you know a song is good when it bring tears to your eyes. like this one did to me

  • wasn't this the title to the theme song for 'Courtship of Eddie's Father?

  • I tear up hearing this song..because I am 32 and Just met my soulmate almost 4 months ago! I always had love affairs..a.k.a boyfriends. But I never had anyone really enjoy the same things I do (History, nature, royals, old music, old movies) EVERYTHING I had to keep to myself in most relationships, my "dark side" he likes this stuff too! We weren't even looking when we found each other. Our first conversation was about the movie "The King's Speech" He is my best friends. all Don says will happen

I used to hear it 30 odd years ago and loved listening listening to it with my dad and now my 2 year old sings the whole chorus to me.I know it might be cheesy country but it has a lot of resonance for a lot of people.If you don't like it or it makes you sad then don't listen to it.No need to give a thumbs down!

  • I heard this live by Don Williams in London in 1978. There has never been a performer who had such a huge audience in the palm of his hand. Don Williams is, without a doubt, the most humble artist I have ever seen onstage. Thanks for posting this.
