Rodney and I went to school together in Jacinto City... on the "other side of Houston". His momma was our elementary school janitor and just a sweetheart. I remember his daddy as one of those men who could freeze you in your tracks with a look. So long ago...song tugs at my heart. Thank y'all.
Dang! Almost 70 and haven't cried since I was 8. Sitting here like I've been gut shot. Didn't notice the tears streaming down my face. Thought I had buried the memories. Damn.
I saw them in concert about this time. I don't recall this song, but I wish they had done it, if they didn't. My dad turned me onto Rodney back around 1980, when he had the Cherry bombs. The man knew how to write, then the commercials took him away for awhile. Those 2 or 3 LP's he did back then were special and full of hits others covered. I Ain't Living Long Like This was my ring tone and I sing it in karaoke, buy I have to do Waylons version. Stars on the Water, Shame on the Moon, American Dream, covered by te Dirt Band. Waylons version of I Ain't Living Long was song of the year. Rodney never needed to sell anything, after that. His recent stuff s really good.
Favorite album of all time.

This was one of his best albums. Masterpiece
Literally just heard Rodney for the first time just now. Of course I love Emmylou so this song is now close to my heart.

wonderful duo and song. the botox saddens me though. my opinion
Now why would she go through the trouble of doing Botox and not tuck her chin? Don't go starting rumors.
No thanks on this one.
Maybe one guitar too many.
