It has become one of my favorite old songs as well.
A real old-time, cryin'-in-my-beer-at-1am-'cause-she-left-me-as-a-distant-train-whistle-mournfully-moans-through-the-warm-summer-breeze-while-I-stub-out-yet-another-cigarette-and-pour-the-last-shot-of-Tennessee-to-drown-the-ache-in-my-heart kind of song.
Nothing like a country song to cleanse the soul in times of self-pity. Great music.
