Woo hoo. Just donated. Thanks for putting the link in. Someday, would love to get your reaction to this. (Roy Clark - Yesterday) ua-cam.com/video/NEY4LxORCeo/v-deo.html
it is about a woman that was harassed (told how to raise her daughter) by the Parent Teacher Association. She was a single mom, who was doing the best she could do, and was a good mother. The P.T.A. was a bunch of hypocrites. This happens a lot in real life even now days
Yeah, boy, howdy. You got that right. You want to tick a genteel Southern woman off, tell her how she needs to raise her young'un. You got it to do then.
I’m here because this song was written by my friend, Tom T. Hall. Nice to see someone reacting to one of his songs. Country music has taken a different direction in recent years and this song and other classics like it seem to be getting forgotten. Thanks for reacting to this song. 👍🏼
I'm 58 years old. I've been listening to Tom T Hall since I was a kid! "The Year Clayton Delaney Died" "Old Dogs Children and Watermelon Wine" "Week In a County Jail". One of the greatest musical storytellers of all time. Tell him we love him and he is appreciated.
childhood memories! Cool - after Mom threw my step-father out she got a job as a cocktail waitress in the days of hot pants and short skirts. All the church folks looked down on her for working in hot pants and serving drinks. I was proud of her for keeping us alive.
What ever it takes, got to feed the kids the deadbeat dads didn't, Wait did that just get deep? lol, My mom worked two full time job's and a part-time job on her days off, we didn't live in the best neighbors, but we were clean and fed, You do what you can with what you can, kid's come first!
@@Tony-5000 Right ? Major Nelson was such a dork! He should've been kissing her sweet ass ! Still can't believe that 'Yes, Master' crap flew in the 60s!!??
@@allisonyoung4007 She called him her master, because, as the owner of the bottle (by finding it) he was her master. BTW... She snuck the bottle (and herself) into his baggage and snuck into his life. Do the terms "master bedroom" and "master bathroom" cause you distress? I ask because some groups want the word removed from the English language. I guess it will become the "M" word.
@@Tony-5000 Holy hell, RELAX! It was a sitcom about a Genie, I know~ Lol. I was born in 63 ,so I only know from the reruns. I was just talking about the changing culture: most things seem dated from a certain time. What upset u so much about that comment, man?
Glad to hear some of the oldes being reacted to, these days they've seemed to go on the wayside in country music, thanks for the rection to this Tom T. Hall true story made into a song sung by jeannie C. Riley!
For the few that don't know, Peyton Place was a movie about hidden secrets and scandals in a small town called Peyton Place. It was turned in to the first night time soap opera on TV.
My grandma got my sister a record player with the 45 of this song when she was 7, I was 3 and we listened to it all the time. I can remember my childhood from that age. I love different types of music but I'm so thankful my dad listened to country, the good old days.
The way I heard it is that Jeannie C Riley asked Tom T Hall to write her a song similar to Ode To Billy Joe. He wrote an entire album on the theme and they're all good songs in my opinion. But Tom T Hall is one of my favorite songwriters.
@@JoeHaynie_VJ agree fully. In some ways I almost think "Sippin Shirley Thompson", "Mr. Harper" and "Widow Jones" are better songs than Harper Valley PTA itself, even if of course they get a completely diffrent tone if you listen to them along with the introduction song that introduces these characters and their personalities.
This was written by Tom T Hall, wow I didn't know that. In that case could you do Tom T Hall's "I Love". I will try to find it long time since hearing it. most truthful song ever.
Loved that song! I grew up in a small town just like that. The people gossiping were doing the worst things. I love your reactions and commentary. You are adorable!
I have been listening to this song for 50 years.. I guess it's time ot watch the Movie Harper Valley PTA with Barbra Eden "I dream of Jennie" One of the most beautiful women of all times yet always classy ..
Can't believe you did this song. This song popped into my head recently and haven't heard it since I was a little kid when my parents listened to country music.
Oh my goodness, this was such a beautiful reaction thank you! I am not big on country, or a big fan of this song but I am big on a honest reaction. Thank you.
Haven't heard this forever an it was out way before I was born but thanks to my own mama I know it well!! Great song great reaction brought back awesome memories! Thanx India much love to you an your!!
I love your reaction to this song. This song has been on my playlist forever. I grew up listening this song and to this day still have my mom's vinyl record of her.
I was one of the first ones to have her album in 1968 !!!!!! Some country music that became a bomb versus the NYC soul classics.Thanks you my sister ! Keep bringing them home !
I wanted a pair, but I have always had heavy ankles (not cankles, but close enough) and my legs were chunky. I was so sad. I REALLY wanted those boots. I've never been able to wear tall boots.
Best song back in the day! My Mom would play this and to this day I know all the words. The older music tells a STORY, not like today’s songs. It’s not like don’t enjoy today’s music, I really do! Keep doing these videos as I enjoy them.
Had the pleasure of seeing her perform in person. She signed a photo for my father, who loved her music. He had just suffered a stroke a few months before and it really helped his spirit. She was a very nice lady.
You are so CUTE!!!!! and yes I'm old enough to be your Mema. I grew up with these songs and love them!!! Your reactions are GREAT!!! Keep listening, good job and great channel
I LOVE this song!!!! 😍 I grew up on country n Weston and i always sang this song in the car at the top of my little 2 or 3 year old voice! 🤣🤣🤣 thank you for doing this song! X💚🦇💚X
I've always wondered if she used so much ice when hubby was away, because she was drinking or because she had to ice bruises he gave her. I probably have always over thought it.
If you can find the movie on DVD you must get it! It's absolutely hilarious! It stars Barbara Eden (from I Dream of Jeannie) and she is sheer perfection in the role!
Thank you for watching

Can't contribute right now dear-waiting to hear about a new position and right now every penny counts! I will contribute though as soon as I can!
There is also a movie about this song Barbara Eden from i dream of Jeannie plays the mom of the teenage girl
I feel like I should comment about the ice, you see people use to have ice delivered to them sooo you do the math

This is what we call spilling allllll the tea in the south.

Tom has always been a favorite of mine. Fried Bologna eggs and gravy!
T is Soo great and underrated
Tom T Hall? Oh yeah! You mean that guy who likes beer. 😁
Love Tom T Hall
She does such a great job with this song, that it's easy to miss the fantastic job that fella does on that Dobro. Man, he kills it.
1968 widowed woman, small town. Mind your business cause I know yours. Love ya peace.
lol, true

@@daveyhouston somewhere in a large tub filled with photos
Amen! Your mama sounds like a strong woman !
"Gotta feed the babies Gotta feed the babies..." Mama did what she had to do to take care of her responsibilities. 👍👍
The movie Harper Valley PTA starred Barbara Eden
Hellz yeah! ABC movie of the week? 😆 Luv this song !
@Dahoss Everytime she entered or left her bottle! Haha. She's the tip of the top when it comes to beauty. END OF in my opinion.,😍🥰😍🥰😍🥰

The musical version of Bless your heart.
LMAO!!! RIGHT!
I love the fact that India will listen to anything and give an honest opinion. BTW, India is very attractive!
She sure is and I really enjoy her personality too.
I have always loved this freaking song. She puts them in their place!
This was a huge hit for Jeannie C. Riley. A movie based upon the song was made. Barbara Eden starred in it...
My mom, rest her soul, use to sing this song to me when I was little. She played it on her guitar.
Love you! This song brings back memories, my mom was divorced in deep south in early 60s when it was "not done".
I know that one!
Glad to hear some of the oldes being reacted to, these days they've seemed to go on the wayside in country music, thanks for the rection to this Tom T. Hall true story made into a song sung by jeannie C. Riley!
I'm in total agreement with you Naomi about Country the way it used to be. For me the likes of the Buck Owens Bakersfield sound will never age
I love this song!! I played out my 8 track of this back in the 70's and the movie with Barbara Eden based on the song was a great movie!!
This song reminds me of Nancy Sinatra's hit song around that same time: "These Boots are Made For Walking". You should react to that one too!
that is a good song
Oooh yeah good one.
That is the best btw peyton place was a soap opera
@@daveyhouston It was a book first. I actually have a copy of the first run print in paperback. It's very good! Much more detail than the soap/movie.
@@Musication717 oh yes I remember they wanted to ban it so of course that made me read it lol
Tom T. Hall was nicknamed "The Storyteller". His song "Old Dogs, Children and Watermelon Wine" is awesome too.
So was "The Year Clayton Delaney Died".
I always loved this song.
I’m proud of ya. I’m so glad as a younger person you have an open mind to listen to true music and artist.
I love this song. Grew up listening to it. In fact, when i was a little kid and my school would mention "PTA" i would always be reminded of this song.
She was ahead of her time, on point, beautiful, and began women snapping back. Woo💯🤗
This song is a classic
For the few that don't know, Peyton Place was a movie about hidden secrets and scandals in a small town called Peyton Place. It was turned in to the first night time soap opera on TV.
Mia Farrow
And Ryan O'neil.
@@paintinganimalsonrocks7633
I remember it well. It was shown on TV here in the UK when I was a child.
Richard Case wasn’t the movie based on a novel by the same name?
I've been listening to this song forever and, hand on the Bible, I thought she said it was a little hatin' place and they're all hypocrites. 🤯😆
Love this song, Jeannie C Riley, and Tom T. Hall too (the writer). Great reaction!
Tales of life in the 60's. This brings back such memories.
This is why I liked to watch "Hee-Haw" in the 60's. This kinda music.
My grandma got my sister a record player with the 45 of this song when she was 7, I was 3 and we listened to it all the time. I can remember my childhood from that age. I love different types of music but I'm so thankful my dad listened to country, the good old days.
I was a teenager when this song come out and I loved it and still do.
Great song they played over and over in the late60s great story with a wink
this song reminds me of and sounds the same as, 'ode to billy joe- tallahatchie bridge'.
The way I heard it is that Jeannie C Riley asked Tom T Hall to write her a song similar to Ode To Billy Joe. He wrote an entire album on the theme and they're all good songs in my opinion. But Tom T Hall is one of my favorite songwriters.

I was thinking the same. Just faster pace.

Thank you for playing. "Harper Valley P.T.A. This is a great song.
I grew up hearing this song. Love your reaction as always India!!
I looooooves this song! My Mom and I used to sing it loud when it came on the radio.
This song always reminds me of my mom, she really liked it and she had this same kind of spirit. Thanks for reacting!
I love the fact you react to a lot of old school songs, good choice on this one as usual
Love your expressions!

Can I just say, that I love her open mindedness, but even more; I love her facial expressions in these videos, lol. She's so cute.
I love that you are first-time seeing these old songs. I like that you put out these reactions.
Oh my goodness, this was such a beautiful reaction thank you! I am not big on country, or a big fan of this song but I am big on a honest reaction. Thank you.

I've sung this song several times (in 60s costume) at fundraisers. I've always loved it
I bought this in the 60s when it was number 1. We all loved it. Thanks for the memory!
I'm Irish and years ago we used play this song every morning going to work in car. Cheered us up for work ahead lol. I was driver
Great reaction as usual, thanks for this!
I love your reaction to this song. This song has been on my playlist forever. I grew up listening this song and to this day still have my mom's vinyl record of her.
One of my favorites from 1968
Omg I grew up listening to this every Saturday while doing chores
Hoooly sh*t. This took me right back to my childhood. Fun to listen to it with adult ears.
I was one of the first ones to have her album in 1968 !!!!!! Some country music that became a bomb versus the NYC soul classics.Thanks you my sister ! Keep bringing them home !
Have loved that song since 68! Thanks!❤️
OH Yes, PTA. was big back in the day. & needed this song. After Honey& last teardrop. & I will donate
I had white boots just like the ones she was wearing-I was in elementary school
I had them in Jr. High. Go-go boots. Lol
I wanted a pair, but I have always had heavy ankles (not cankles, but close enough) and my legs were chunky. I was so sad. I REALLY wanted those boots. I've never been able to wear tall boots.

I always loved this song! Well done by Jeannie C. Riley.
His song and Lorreta Lynn's " I've got the pill" were just the beginning of women's movement
Used to love this show way back in the day!!!!
Love me some Jeannie C. Riley! She did a (gentler) followup 17 years later.
After she found religion, she started releasing Christian songs and the followup was seen as an apology for the first one.
Sock it to...
was, a 60's, early 70's euphemism; for
giving someone hell, or, a piece of one's mind.
And a favorite phrase on Laugh-In.
Not for Aretha....sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me. R E S P E C T, find out what it means to her.

One of the best 60s tunes
I remember this on the radio in 1968 I was 7 and I ran around yelling the day my momma socked it to the Harper Valley PTA. I miss those days.
Another great one...
Loved this song when I was 7. Loved the movie with Barbara Eden...

Love this song! It's so fun!
FINALLY, someone doing a reaction to this song and this fine singer! And damn, Jeannie was Fine!
Throwing shade isn't a new thing.
Love the song and the movie❤️
This song is one that still sticks out from my childhood. Maybe because it's timeless.
I just wanted to state that this song takes place when ice was delivered by a deliveryman.
It was not! It was the 60's.
I've always wondered if she used so much ice when hubby was away, because she was drinking or because she had to ice bruises he gave her. I probably have always over thought it.
always a fav

I want to tell you, before the pain pills kick in, what fun you bring to my life. God Bless.
