Wilbur--

you're The Man! I am so glad someone (YOU) posted this version, the Original versus one of those horrible re-recordings.

Really, a ton of thanks!

KTCR-FM in Minneapolis played this in 1969 and I never knew who sang this version UNTIL NOW!! Thanks so much for posting. Love it!

@TheMacgrurry My mom never missed "Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman", and I still have this original 45 rpm by Freddy Weller, I don't have to play it anymore because of this video.

@NanMarTren I was only 3 when it came out but my mom use 2 play it all the x on her stereo as I grew up. It's the only version I like. Only version I'm use 2, really.

I got nothing against country music, really, but this is so White, Oh my Gawd, i can hardly understand that it got to #2 in the country. i think there must be a lot of CM fans in the country that pushed it up the charts, just like all the faceless CBS watchers that kept "Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman" on the air for years despite no one ever admiting they watched that show!!

Better Than Joe South's Version

Joe South wrote it, and did it justice. This is a lot more country, more twang, well done, but just understand who wrote it.
