I think Shylo's original with Ronny Scaife on lead vocal was the best. It was written by Danny Hogan & Ronny Scaife. RIP Ronny and Mel.

My absolute favorite version of this song. Brings back so many memories and gives me those awesome chills. The ones you get when the music really touches you!

@cjreed100 If that's you singing the female part congrats. It must be a great memory.I've always felt this is a really underrated song. One of my favorites.

I wish i could find a river running along then i would join him and never return to the pain that i would leave behind

I just watched that Video, Mel had no part in that song. I confused Brian Cadd for Mel. Sorry I thought I should correct myself.

I have a typo to repair replace 'hand' with 'and'

I would have liked to of had the opportunity to see him in concert. His Death or Passing in March of 2011 is a loss, we will always have his music. I have a favorite song by him this song is among them however, if you listen to Simple Ben, the callaberation hand the contribution Mel provided I think was awesome. It and all his work is priceless!!

Mel McDaniel has passed away?? I never heard. This is truly a loss for us all. This is country music; this song, for me, is the very best of his best. RIP; we will miss you.

This was (and still is) one of my favorite songs that I recorded background vocals on. I still pull out the LP and listen once in a while. . . I had the chance to sit down with one of the WSM "disc jockeys" at the studio in the Opryland Hotel "several" years back and they interviewed me and played several of Mel's records. Great memories!!
