Here because Lane Johnson quoted this song when bidding farewell to all time great in Jason Kelce. Legends on the field brought me to this legendary song. God bless.
Austin Texas in the 1970s and 1980s The Armadillo World Headquarters, Soap Creek Saloon, The Split Rail,, and The Hole in The Wall, great music every night and every day, Casita Jorge's for great Tex-Mex , it was a wonderful place to live, and a lot of fun, God Bless everyone and stay safe
I know what ya mean... I pull up these old videos of REK, Jerry Jeff, Peter Rowan, Nanci Griffith and all my other faves from my misspent 20's in the 80's... seems like just yesterday
he started sining it faster and it got better. great song. reminds me of what Glenn Campbell did with Gentle on My Mind. He just sped it up and put more energy into it.
if yer gonna play in Texas you gotta have a fiddle in the band.........REK sure looks young in this old clip....ive loved the dudes music for years........
You may be right Mike, I forget i'm 60 years old ,when I get on the web time stands still for me sometimes, I need to look at the date before I respond.....
REK, classic song, here I am listening in 2023 knowing he has retired from touring
Yep me too.

Where can I find that video?
Just think - any day of the week in Austin - you walked into any bar and there this was - bliss.

A classic from one of the great American songwriters.
it like the prom in Back to the future, a guy from the future comes in with something no ones ever heard but everyone knows its gold.
"I guess you guys aren't ready for that yet."
@@bobbymathews ,But your kids are going to love it . . .
My dad listen to this song in his mri before he died it gives me a great memory 😊
I'm truly sorry for your loss.. your dad is a stud.
thank you..my dads favorite song,,he just passed..I listened to it forever,,,helps make it easier
I hadn't realized just how old this song was...this is a great version. Thanks for uploading it.
The original songwriter
No doubt in my mind
@@mikeross3122 He wrote it
This song is my favorite. This song has been in 2 major and important pieces of my life.
Keen's a master storyteller.
It makes you wonder if a producer of the movie scar face heard this song and got a idea?
@@327JohnnySS Scarface came out before the song
About the time I started listening to him.
Just listened to 'Walking the floor' with Chris Shiflett and that brought me here. How is it possible that I never heard this song before......?
You should purchase the CD. It is all great. Somehow I knew about him right after this song first came out.
Had the pleasure of meeting him at the Philadelphia folk festival in the late 80s really good people

The amount of cocaine we all did, my god
I misspent my 20s riding a bicycle, for thousands of miles, on Texas backroads. We need more than one life to do all there is to do.
Intense is the definition of this performance.
Wow, most underrated singer today.
Incredibly big sound for a three man band. Great story song.
How in the heck can you dislike that? Great song. I don’t know who that is, but that guy can play the violin
You know the difference between a violin and a fiddle? A violin has strings and a fiddle has strangs
Excellent thanks for posting 📫👍
REK - a true masterpiece
Awesome in every damn way - old footage but playing and performance wonderful
so glad I just heard and saw this! love this song.
This song takes me back to my outlaw days.
The ultimate love song
Fantastic song about life !! Who know's where we gonna go. I really enjoy this song>!< I jam to it at least 2 times a week>> !!!!!!
That fiddle player is off the chain!
My thoughts exactly! Who is he?!
@@immaris1978 It says on posting of the video.
That’s kicking ass!
best blues balladeer of the eighty's by far!
Damn
That was good
Us Mexicans love REK!
man... that guy can play the crap out of a fiddle!
His name is Johnny, he is from Georgia.
I think the adrenaline must have been flowing, they're singing a 5 minute song in 4 minutes.
"Adrenalin" .)
It's the coke my dude haha
Dudes high on coke guaranteed
What a great song ...lyrics like this a far between and the next one will never be better than these
SO young then, How old is this now, I know that im old as dirt and not supposed to still be here...
You’re clearly supposed to be here, cause if you weren’t you wouldn’t be. How you doing these days man, things alright?
@@thatssoironic Thanks for asking ! God bless you!
@@thatssoironic I still am trying to do the next right thing for myself and others around me.
@@thatssoironic Obviously God has decided that I have more to learn before I go.
@@perpetualyouth760 you’re right about that
I Saw this guy in Lake Tahoe in 2015. Great Show?
well that was frickn awesome.
never gets old, still awesome
Yupper
DAMN good looking Man there !
The bass player?
this is a great song
Damn, that's an old video! But still great!
Dude...it was 25 years ago when he played on the TX Connection...the crowd didn't know his songs then. Now they do...
I knew them, was his fan when he only drew 50 or so fans and a few years later he just blew up in the Texas Music Scene. Love his music.
10/10. A treasure.
he started sining it faster and it got better. great song. reminds me of what Glenn Campbell did with Gentle on My Mind. He just sped it up and put more energy into it.
I forgot how cute he was back in the day
Thats some serious fiddle action going on
if yer gonna play in Texas you gotta have a fiddle in the band.........REK sure looks young in this old clip....ive loved the dudes music for years........
You may be right Mike, I forget i'm 60 years old ,when I get on the web time stands still for me sometimes, I need to look at the date before I respond.....
Bravo!
I gave him a guitar pick and he gave me a”Road goes on Forever “ T shirt!
Feeling good….
I didn't know this is where the Highwaymen's song is from.
I can watch this song in my mind
omg he's so young and folkpunk
My baby Jonathan 🥰🥰🥰
Is that the old hot dog vendor from the old Ballpark in Arlington yelling "HOOOOOT DAWWWWWGS!"
That dude is a fan favorite, bought many off him dollar dawgs!!!
😎 thanks
@guyareynolds ....i agree ...ive seen REK live twice and the crowd sings louder than him on this song ...maybe because it was on tv they was subdued
WOOOHOOO
Once upon a time, when Seth Rogen played fiddle for Ryan Reynolds...
Thanks Casey 🌲🐿🌲
this is a great song. my question is how do I stop the Kamala ads after every video?
I'm not as high as this makes me feel.
DL Marble does a good cover of this REK hit.
Aloha, Bobby and Rose
I wonder why He Quit Touring Too Bad?
I wonder if that fiddle player is his college roommate Brian Duckworth?
No, Jonathan Yudkin
The party doesn't ever end but it's a lot easier if you would just quit making it so hard on yourself.
. Come home I love you. Your wife
Joe Ely does a decent rockin cover!
@offermanc: Jonathan Yudkin
Yudkin !
FLUSH
pretty sure the base player is also the lead singer of Ram Jam
Messed up how he gets the chair and dies. And she gets away clean.
ummm.. a violin is a fiddle.... Jonathan Yudkin is listed above... ;-)
The porch song
@swinneas it's the devil. He went down to Georgia a short time later
Thats Hilarious THX
A modern day Bonnie and Clyde episode
Hip
Seth rogen bangin on that fiddle baby
He kind of looks like Mason Jennings
Damn slow it down
Lots of slower versions on others Clips
I love George jones.
Great song. Bass player is not at all in the groove on this performance though.
Peter Walsh - nope, he's solid in the groove, but audio and video are out of sync.
