I was married 54 years to a Kentucky Country Bumpkin and I'd happily do another 54 if God would only give him back to me, I'll never know a kinder, hard working, honest, gentler, soft spoken, loving man. If you can find one treasure him. There aren't many out there. ❤ to the country bumpkins. ❤
Yo hee haw she's sweet tea sippy folks on your white house porch that rap's all round the house so you can monitor the fields! Don't just watch and throw your 2 cents in here and there step into battle feild there's alot a cotton for your wounds ADX8⚡🫂🔥💯😷
When my son was born50 yrs ago, my daddy used to call him his little country bumpkin...my son died 12 yrs ago and my daddy died 6 yrs ago...I miss them both...but I am so glad I found this song....thank you
At 70 years of age I must say this life has really been something . This song reaches way down deep inside of my heart and reminds me of just how beautiful life has been for this old country bumpkin . I not only hear this beautiful song I can feel it .
Because it ain’t country music now it’s pop music don’t even listen to the so called country music nowadays the new songs nowadays except for a few singers is terrible everybody needs to boycott it till the executives in Nashville get the message we ain’t gonna listen to it
Was one of my grandfather's favorites he ment more to me than the worthless piece of shit who creamed my mother. Now he's been gone for longer than I knew him but this song keeps him with me
Absolutely one of the greatest love songs ever written and performed. Cal Smith never got his full dues when he was among the living but his induction into the COUNTRY MUSIC HALL OF FAME would go a long way toward making things right.
I was a child when this song was new.Always liked it. Cal Smith and George Jones had the best voices for country music. In my opinion, country music took a nose dive since 1990. No singer today can take the place of the greats from all decades before 1990.
I’m not a very big fan of country music, but I’ll be damned if I don’t cry every time I hear this song. It’s the entire circle of life. Just beautiful.
Glad I’m not the only one. I’m 68 was 21 when this song came out. I woke up thinking about it because we almost had frost this morning. So had to hear it and Soon as it started good I got teary eyed!

As a 74 year old Person of Color to me Classic Country music and Singers were and are 'real music" !! Vive" forever!!!!!.
I absolutely LOVE these classic country songs. They told a story that you could picture in your mind as the song was playing. You don't get any better than this.
Wouldn't this song make a great movie? That's why we love songs that tell stories. Makes people know there is still hope out there for a mate that will love us till death do us part.
This was my neighbors song. Played at his funeral a couple weeks ago. He was 87 years old, and the strongest and funniest man you'd ever meet. Billy Joe Beach you are missed. I miss you country bumpkin. The neighborhood isn't the same without you and everyone feels it. I'll see you again some day.
America before the fabric of family and values had been completely destroyed. No way to hear this without remembering a time when the sheriff was your friend, the sky was blue and food was made out of food. Thank you Cal and everyone who made life worth living. You were the frost on my pumpkin.
Oh, get over that good old days crap. Musical styles change. There were problems then, there are problems now. I prefer this particular song to a lot of songs that are popular now. That does NOT mean that the 1970s were wonderful and the 2020s are horrible.
What a voice! And what a song! No one could sing it better. I’m 84 and have been loving country music As far back as I can remember. This one is one to remember. O
This was the song I always requested on one oldies radio station. My dad was a trucker and this was our weekly check in. Even if I'd just talked to him I always called it in. He used to always sing oldies to me. He's been gone one year and 54 days.
Cal Smith, what a voice! My mom passed three years ago and this song always takes me through our many chapters of life. Thanks again, Mom, for everything...I love you.
Sorry you lost your mom truck boy I lost mine too but we're so lucky to have ever had them in our lives at all you left a great comment about a great song
When i was a kid my mom would a radio playing allnight and instead of going to sleep i would stay up and listen to the radio and this was one of the songs that played all the time. Brings me back to a different time and place ill always cherish.
As a 10 year old boy when this song first came out has little to no affect on you, leaving you wondering why all the old folks were sad hearing it. Well a short 45 years later I no longer have to wonder why it tears your heart out looking back and watching your own Mama on her death bed as she passes. She may not have been a bar room girl with hard and knowing eyes, she was the just kindest sweetest person that I never once had a bad thought about. It is sad when they are no longer with us but looking back at 100% great memories surely makes it less sad.
I love this song so very much My Momma would dànce around the kitchen with me. She's been gone for 8 years now, but the meroy's linger on. Thank you for playing ❤️ these livery song's
My father was a worthless piece of shit but my grandfather was my real father but he passed before I needed him the most. All I'm saying I had a country bumpkin in my life and he loved this song as long as people like you are here I'll never feel alone
I know just how you're feeling I'm listening too this song tonight because I'm missing my mom who passed away 10 year's ago this April. This and Hello walls was my mom's favorite song's.
This is my mom's favorite song 🎵I play this all the time she isn't deaf but wants the volume turned up. She is 90 years-old and this song 🎵makes her feel young again
This song dropped onto the turntable of the jukebox in my mind yesterday. I hadn't heard it since the 70's. God just dropped that quarter and pushed those buttons! DAMN, country was good back then!
I am just 27 and live in Nigeria. But I heard the song for the first time 15 years ago and for some reason the song resonated with my soul and was basically my wake up alarm every morning for about 2 years. Brings back so much good memories.
This was one of my daddy's favorite songs in the 60s, so I grew up with it through the 70s, I had my own children in the 90s and raised them with the same song. Now my daughter sings her baby to sleep at night to Country Bumpkin. That's a lot of history for one ole Cal Smith song.
Once in a great, great while a song is written that is simple but yet a beautiful combination of lyric and melody. This song is one of those. A tip of the hat to Cal Smith and a big salute to Don Wayne, who wrote the song. According to wikipedia, Cal is alive and well and spends a lot of time fishing with his wife in Branson, Missouri. I wonder if he ever sings this to her while fishing under some cool shade? I bet he does.
Mr cal Smith thank you for the real country music from 1970 been listain every since will till the day I draw my last breath thank god for real country music
The funeral for my mom had just ended when my dad and I got into the car to go to the graveside service and this song came on. I cried the entire way as the last lines of this song repeated in my head over and over. I miss you mom and dad.
im so sorry sweetie... Its a horrible anguish... we don't realize until we get older and they are gone that's why communication is important how is your heart doing nowadays
Proud Country Bumpkin! Thanks Cal Smith! What a song! Take lessons "new country music." This is what the good stuff sounds like! "See you later, country bumpkins." Keep listening in 2018!
This song will always have a spot in my heart. I can still hear my mom and dad singing this song to each other. My dad is gone now for 5 years from cancer. I have never seen a love as strong as theirs. Brings happy tears to my eyes every time.
Classic country music had heart and soul. The stories were true, and hit many of us just when we needed something in our lives. To take us to a better place in a time of grieving.
I remember when I was a little girl my dad used to play this song over and over again in the car. I just cane here to listen to it because I couldn’t remember the whole song. Brings back memories.
A fourth child learns to be patient. When Baby Jim would fuss early in the morning, I would stop by his crib to sing, "Hello, country bumpkin." After I signaled, he stopped fussing and waited. Hurriedly I'd brush my teeth, change his diaper, and take him in the living room to snuggle and nurse him. "Country Bumpkin" was "our song." Jim grew up and moved away. At 38, he was diagnosed with cancer, was eventually forced to come home. In our song, after 40 years, the dying mama sings, "So long, country bumpkin." Jim and I are not staying with the script, but we are saying good-bye. Music marks all our lives. Tonight I am especially grateful for this piece.
I don't think the singers and song writers of that time knew how good they really were and what great music they were leaving this world . Thank you for sharing October
This takes me back to all the family times I enjoyed as a child. Grew up in the 60's & it was the best any child could ever ask for, we were loved & we loved in return. Closeness few family's have now. It is a Wonderful Life.
Haven't heard this song in a long time. My mom and I loved it, as she WAS a country bumpkin. She's no longer with me, but I still love this song and every time I hear it, it reminds me of her.
Always love this song since way back 1970s still enjoy more today at age 54. I grow up Country Music younger age. Still enjoy classic hits songs. Pure country music sound. That truth. Why enjoy classic hits songs on radio stations.
Wish bring back classic hits songs on radio stations Nation wide. I still remember back my childhood days this song on radio stations. Lots my favorite songs. Pure country music sound. Fans enjoy more and more each year. Thank You. Two thumbs up 👍 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
My grandma used to say “how’s that frost on the pumpkin” to my mom when she was younger, I had never heard of this song until she posted the quote on her facebook and someone linked it. My grandma died a few hours ago. I’m still in shock, didn’t feel real at all. Played this song and everything hit me at once like a train. I’ll miss you grandma.
There's a song called "Far Behind" by Candlebox that hits me like a train every time I hear it. Lost my closest friend almost 9 years ago. It conveys just as much emotion and elicits such strong emotions even now.
I hear you all! My country Australia too has gone down the tube! I remember listening to this music in the late 60s, 70s and 80s, this song reminds me of my beautiful parents and I went and visited they're graves today and I just stood there crying because I miss them both so much❤⚘💔💔⚘💙
When i was a kid in the 70's my dad had this on eight track and played it in the car over and over , i got so sick of it. Dads gone now so is the car and the 8 track .I miss them so much i would give anything to go back and hear it over and over again riding with my dad.
So sorry for your loss. I just lost my mom too on march 22 of this yr & my dad will be gone 2 yrs this May. I miss her everyday. Wish I could tell you it gets easier with time.
@@tilliecochran8330 thank you. I know it will never really ease, I just hope to be able to fully accept it. I'm still dealing with everything. I still have my dad, but he had a massive stroke almost 3 years ago and his dementia from it is getting worse. It's almost like watching him fade away. I'm sorry for your loss.
Sorry for your loss. Sounds like you grew up around good people and great music. My mom used to say the same thing to me. She died in 1983. Tonight Is one of those nights, I miss her. I buried my youngest son almost 9 months ago. She would have loved Zac.
I heard this song when I was a young buck in a special time in my life when I was young and carefree, I have never forgotten it, when the internet came on board I found it and so !many more, love you Cal Smith.
I would sing this to my mom upon the first frost of year after I retired from the army ... this was one of her favorite songs .... this and "I never Promised you a Rose Garden."
@@lesleygurnick4050Hello! How are you doing today! Please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you're a fan!....Stay safe!
This song is in my top ten country songs of all time. I guess you just had to live it to understand how heavy this Don Wayne song really is. But it hit me young.
Love this song. It reminds me of my grandparents. My grandma is still here, don't know what I'd do without her, but my grandpa just passed away last month. We didn't have much of a relationship because he lived in a different state and barely came to visit, but one thing I knew about him was that he could play country music on his guitar like no other. And he loved to see the world; probably why he drove trucks for a living. I'll miss him.
I was married 54 years to a Kentucky Country Bumpkin and I'd happily do another 54 if God would only give him back to me, I'll never know a kinder, hard working, honest, gentler, soft spoken, loving man. If you can find one treasure him. There aren't many out there. ❤ to the country bumpkins. ❤
God bless you. ❤
Yo hee haw she's sweet tea sippy folks on your white house porch that rap's all round the house so you can monitor the fields! Don't just watch and throw your 2 cents in here and there step into battle feild there's alot a cotton for your wounds ADX8⚡🫂🔥💯😷
Sorry for your Loss and your Family
He was the lucky one
2024 How I wish today's country music was half this good.
Boy don't you know it ! ! Ms. Swift isn't so great. Claudia Heinowsk
Yes Sir you know it make no mistake
All this good. 😊
Truth 🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
You and me both
When my son was born50 yrs ago, my daddy used to call him his little country bumpkin...my son died 12 yrs ago and my daddy died 6 yrs ago...I miss them both...but I am so glad I found this song....thank you
Hey how are you doing..?
At 70 years of age I must say this life has really been something . This song reaches way down deep inside of my heart and reminds me of just how beautiful life has been for this old country bumpkin . I not only hear this beautiful song I can feel it .
Agree! Nam Vet , Tom.
You ain't the only one brother. I love this song.
Agree with you. Emotional song for me.
I'm happy 4 u. Never had any1 love me 4 me always wanted 2 change me. Sandy k
love to hear this ov and over again. it never gets pld.🤟🤘🤘🤟
Why ain't country music this good nowadays??
Because beer, and truck, and momma, and girls, and boots, and mud, and smokes, are just buzzwords to these artists.
“Rockabilly” and “Country wannabe’s” took over among Millennials😂
you haven't heard of Charlie Crocket?
They won’t allow it
Because it ain’t country music now it’s pop music don’t even listen to the so called country music nowadays the new songs nowadays except for a few singers is terrible everybody needs to boycott it till the executives in Nashville get the message we ain’t gonna listen to it
After so many years, this song still gives me chills. Love the older country. Nothing like it
Funny... it makes my skin crawl. WHY AM I HERE?
Agreed my friend. Country Gold Never Fades.
I totally agree! Reminds me of my dad growing up in the 60's.
Was one of my grandfather's favorites he ment more to me than the worthless piece of shit who creamed my mother. Now he's been gone for longer than I knew him but this song keeps him with me
Listen to old country thinking my mom makes me a long cry cleansing
I cannot listen to this song without crying at the last verse. Today's music is not the same. How could anyone give it a thumbs down?
a fool with a devils heart could
AMEN We have lost some of the tender kindness & emotions of love for a family home & children in our music of today in 2023
They give it a thumbs down because they're the idiots I love this song
Yes i think you are right ,@@dennisboyd1712
Yes sitting here crying in 2024.❤
Absolutely one of the greatest love songs ever written and performed. Cal Smith never got his full dues when he was among the living but his induction into the COUNTRY MUSIC HALL OF FAME would go a long way toward making things right.
I love that song. its one of my favorites!
you are so right,
Great song, makes me tear up a little
For sure, but make sure you credit that he didn’t write it, only had a majorly successful rendition. Don Wayne wrote it
Great voice
I was a child when this song was new.Always liked it. Cal Smith and George Jones had the best voices for country music. In my opinion, country music took a nose dive since 1990. No singer today can take the place of the greats from all decades before 1990.
Yes it did
110% RIGHT. EVERYTHING AFTERCARRIE UNDERWOOD IS NOT COUNTRY MUSIC!!. EXCEPT FOR TRY THAT IN A SMALL TOWN.
Keith Whitley
I’m not a very big fan of country music, but I’ll be damned if I don’t cry every time I hear this song. It’s the entire circle of life. Just beautiful.
Thank you for sharing that , cause that is whats most important is your honest opinion and it is one of the best opinions
One of my favorite and I’m mostly a Rock listener
I love it
@@robinfuller7010 I listen to it at once week...sometimed more often.
Glad I’m not the only one. I’m 68 was 21 when this song came out. I woke up thinking about it because we almost had frost this morning. So had to hear it and Soon as it started good I got teary eyed!
As a 74 year old Person of Color to me Classic Country music and Singers were and are 'real music" !! Vive" forever!!!!!.
Stop saying "person of color". You are not being real. Stop identifying as the other.
Check out Tex Ritter. John ritters dad. Had a voice you can't forget
I agree with you.
How I miss the country music of my youth.
Bingo
Amen Brother
Cal Smith was underrated. I always thought he was one of the best. He was country.
I absolutely LOVE these classic country songs. They told a story that you could picture in your mind as the song was playing. You don't get any better than this.
that is so true, the classics do tell stories that a person can relate and some times it seem as if they wrote the song about our own lives
so agree
Yeah the older country music was better 👌
Wouldn't this song make a great movie? That's why we love songs that tell stories. Makes people know there is still hope out there for a mate that will love us till death do us part.
Yes this song is so true.of life
This was my neighbors song. Played at his funeral a couple weeks ago. He was 87 years old, and the strongest and funniest man you'd ever meet. Billy Joe Beach you are missed. I miss you country bumpkin. The neighborhood isn't the same without you and everyone feels it. I'll see you again some day.

Yah i definately cant blame people for killing themselves
Oh, get over that good old days crap. Musical styles change. There were problems then, there are problems now. I prefer this particular song to a lot of songs that are popular now. That does NOT mean that the 1970s were wonderful and the 2020s are horrible.
My mother listen to him and lot the old music sold me on it she been gone 34 years I was 19 when she past I never get tired of this old country
How are you doing today
Such a tear jerker
. When I hear this song I think of my darling wife of 40 years. So loving and caring. This time will be played during my last ride
I miss old country music like this that tells a story!
Hello Sarah how are you doing!!
What a voice! And what a song! No one could sing it better. I’m 84 and have been loving country music
As far back as I can remember. This one is one to remember. O
84 ...now 87...wow...what a life. You have been blessed for sure Maam.
Hi Anna.. are you doing okay? 😊💗
I'm 62 myself, and I have always loved Country Music.
I grew up on Country... I'm 75 now ... still loving real country. Nothing better. This tearjerker is one of the best!!
Great old story song of love, Thank you for a heartfelt song.
Rest in peace Cal Smith
This man was always greatly under rated.And this is absolutely his best song.
vreynoldson56 I agree! be sure to read his guitar strap--it reads "Country Bumpkin Cal Smith" so he must have this song at the top of his list too!
Vastly greatly underrated. Wish there was more of his music available for purchase today.
💯
This was the song I always requested on one oldies radio station. My dad was a trucker and this was our weekly check in. Even if I'd just talked to him I always called it in. He used to always sing oldies to me. He's been gone one year and 54 days.
Hello how are you doing..?😊
Beautiful! No flashy guitar breaking on stage, no screaming by winners of amateur singing competitions, just beautiful singing with heart and soul.
thays the way I love it !!!🤜🤛👊👍
Cal Smith was one of the best . And that song should have been tops. 😅😅😊
Cal Smith, what a voice!
My mom passed three years ago and this song always takes me through our many chapters of life. Thanks again, Mom, for everything...I love you.
R.I.P.
Condolences on your loss.
Sorry you lost your mom truck boy I lost mine too but we're so lucky to have ever had them in our lives at all you left a great comment about a great song
Exact same thing with my Mother who died 8 yrs ago. She always loved the song
This is REAL country music. Man these guys lived it. They were MEN.
When i was a kid my mom would a radio playing allnight and instead of going to sleep i would stay up and listen to the radio and this was one of the songs that played all the time. Brings me back to a different time and place ill always cherish.
This is REAL COUNTRY I wish more of todays country artists would sing like this.
As a 10 year old boy when this song first came out has little to no affect on you, leaving you wondering why all the old folks were sad hearing it. Well a short 45 years later I no longer have to wonder why it tears your heart out looking back and watching your own Mama on her death bed as she passes. She may not have been a bar room girl with hard and knowing eyes, she was the just kindest sweetest person that I never once had a bad thought about. It is sad when they are no longer with us but looking back at 100% great memories surely makes it less sad.
I love this song so very much My Momma would dànce around the kitchen with me. She's been gone for 8 years now, but the meroy's linger on. Thank you for playing ❤️ these livery song's
Really didn't think about the country songs back then either until my mom passed away, now I wanna listen to them all the time.
No music on earth speaks about life like country music. What a beautiful song.
Listen to this on an old dock on a lake. My dad died today, he was definitely a country pumpkin. Thank you for the music it's very soothing.
❤️l
My father was a worthless piece of shit but my grandfather was my real father but he passed before I needed him the most. All I'm saying I had a country bumpkin in my life and he loved this song as long as people like you are here I'll never feel alone
I know just how you're feeling I'm listening too this song tonight because I'm missing my mom who passed away 10 year's ago this April. This and Hello walls was my mom's favorite song's.
So sorry for your loss.
Sorry for your loss. Accept my condolences
I listen to thiss at least everyday. That's EVERYDAY BEEN MY COUNTRY BUMPKIN FOR 41 YEARS 😊
This is my mom's favorite song 🎵I play this all the time she isn't deaf but wants the volume turned up. She is 90 years-old and this song 🎵makes her feel young again
Lol!! I kno the feeling!!
This song dropped onto the turntable of the jukebox in my mind yesterday. I hadn't heard it since the 70's. God just dropped that quarter and pushed those buttons! DAMN, country was good back then!
This is Country Music I was raised on!!! This "NEW COUNTRY" don't hold a candle to this kind of country music!!!!!
Country music of yester year that touches heart & soul. Why did we leave it behind for what is flashed today?
I am just 27 and live in Nigeria. But I heard the song for the first time 15 years ago and for some reason the song resonated with my soul and was basically my wake up alarm every morning for about 2 years. Brings back so much good memories.
Now I am 28 years old and finally I understand what the song was talking about after 16 years. Country bumpkin should be a movie.
I live in Ghana, I came across it 6 years ago and since then I can’t stop listening to it
One of the best country songs ever by a great artist.
I have always enjoyed listening to this song
This was one of my daddy's favorite songs in the 60s, so I grew up with it through the 70s, I had my own children in the 90s and raised them with the same song. Now my daughter sings her baby to sleep at night to Country Bumpkin. That's a lot of history for one ole Cal Smith song.
Hello how are you doing today..?
I was 11 yrs. old now I'm 56, still in my memory forever...:).
Geeze....40 years on this song still brings tears to my eyes...
Once in a great, great while a song is written that is simple but yet a beautiful combination of lyric and melody. This song is one of those. A tip of the hat to Cal Smith and a big salute to Don Wayne, who wrote the song.

❤I tell my husband this is his some😊

One of the most beautiful country songs ever , it came out when i had my first & only son , great days , thank you God
Hey how are you doing today..?
Words can't express how beautiful I have always thought this song is.
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
The funeral for my mom had just ended when my dad and I got into the car to go to the graveside service and this song came on. I cried the entire way as the last lines of this song repeated in my head over and over. I miss you mom and dad.
im so sorry sweetie...
Its a horrible anguish... we don't realize until we get older and they are gone that's why communication is important how is your heart doing nowadays

Back in the good days this would play on the car radio, and I'd cry the whole way thinkin' about how I'd miss the folks when they were gone. And I do.
Hello how are you doing…?😊
I miss my country bumpkin.. just waiting to see him again 😢
This is what I was raised on. Love the old classic country.
Hello how are you doing today?
This takes me back hearing it as a kid, glad to be a country bumpkin, still love it
Beautiful and bittersweet... and one of best country songs ever written.
Frank Kelch amen to that brother frank ...
I agree , this song holds many childhood memories for me.
Hi I like the song and I wish I could still play with data off. If one can help to send it with lerics
LaP
Pure Magic
Proud Country Bumpkin! Thanks Cal Smith! What a song! Take lessons "new country music." This is what the good stuff sounds like! "See you later, country bumpkins." Keep listening in 2018!
Still listening in December 2023
This song will always have a spot in my heart. I can still hear my mom and dad singing this song to each other. My dad is gone now for 5 years from cancer. I have never seen a love as strong as theirs. Brings happy tears to my eyes every time.
This was my late husbands favorite song. He passed away in 1984 at 41 years old. I love this song and play it often.
Just a simple, sweet country song performed as good as it ever could be.
Classic country music had heart and soul. The stories were true, and hit many of us just when we needed something in our lives. To take us to a better place in a time of grieving.
Real country music, I miss it. Glad I have this resource to listen to these real country songs!!!
My mama use to sing this song to me when I was a child. I can still hear her voice. It's been a long time, I can still hear that voice.😊
I remember when I was a little girl my dad used to play this song over and over again in the car. I just cane here to listen to it because I couldn’t remember the whole song. Brings back memories.
I love your comment!
Any other Bumpkins listening during the Coronavirus?
Still enjoying this song 40 years later.
I can't listen to this song without crying.
Beautiful song but it rips my heart.
Love you momma.
Hey how are you doing….?
A fourth child learns to be patient. When Baby Jim would fuss early in the morning, I would stop by his crib to sing, "Hello, country bumpkin." After I signaled, he stopped fussing and waited. Hurriedly I'd brush my teeth, change his diaper, and take him in the living room to snuggle and nurse him. "Country Bumpkin" was "our song." Jim grew up and moved away. At 38, he was diagnosed with cancer, was eventually forced to come home. In our song, after 40 years, the dying mama sings, "So long, country bumpkin." Jim and I are not staying with the script, but we are saying good-bye. Music marks all our lives. Tonight I am especially grateful for this piece.
GOD BLESS both of u... for ur story told w feeling...
Jimmy died March 1, 2015. I still get teary when I hear "our song."
Sharon Ervin GOD BLESS YOU BOTH, REMEMBER HE WILL ALWAYS BE YOUR COUNTRY BUMPKIN, LOOKING DOWN UPON YOU WITH THE LORD
💔💔😢🌷
Ma'am, I'm sorry to hear of your loss. I wish the Lord's blessings upon you, your son, and the rest of your family.
We need this sound today. No screeching telecasters no trucker hats no.mirror sunglasses just a man singing really well and true
I always loved this song, reminds me of the way life used to be. I wish time could reverse
This was when life and music meant something
I'll die living in my memories of the good old days 💞💞💞
I don't think the singers and song writers of that time knew how good they really were and what great music they were leaving this world . Thank you for sharing
October
I’m a full grown man that’s bawling listening to this while I think of my grandparents
back when country was country! thanks for uploading
ur welcome
Will look at who they are. When I was on the Sheriff Department in 1974, I learned this song every night around midnight, love it.
This has to be my favorite Country song ever , just love it xxxx .
Hello how are you doing today?
My grandpa passed away 2 weeks ago and this was his favorite song. i start balling my eyes out whenever i hear this song. So long country bumpkin 😢

This takes me back to all the family times I enjoyed as a child. Grew up in the 60's & it was the best any child could ever ask for, we were loved & we loved in return. Closeness few family's have now. It is a Wonderful Life.
Haven't heard this song in a long time. My mom and I loved it, as she WAS a country bumpkin. She's no longer with me, but I still love this song and every time I hear it, it reminds me of her.
So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song! How are you?
Always love this song since way back 1970s still enjoy more today at age 54. I grow up Country Music younger age. Still enjoy classic hits songs. Pure country music sound. That truth. Why enjoy classic hits songs on radio stations.
Smart girl.
Simple country songs. Love this era of country music.
This song was #1 the week I was born. My mama always called me her "country bumpkin".
This is SUCH a good song... wish we still had Old Country

Keep listening 🎧 It's good for your soul.
My grandma used to say “how’s that frost on the pumpkin” to my mom when she was younger, I had never heard of this song until she posted the quote on her facebook and someone linked it. My grandma died a few hours ago. I’m still in shock, didn’t feel real at all. Played this song and everything hit me at once like a train. I’ll miss you grandma.
There's a song called "Far Behind" by Candlebox that hits me like a train every time I hear it. Lost my closest friend almost 9 years ago. It conveys just as much emotion and elicits such strong emotions even now.
That song brings tears we lucky to have a song like this
I miss growing up in the 80's to stuff like this, growing up in the country. Times sure have changed...
Yes they sure have my friend country ant country anymore.Oh well will always have all the old stuff toplay over and over!!
Karl Phillips this wasn't the 80's bud ...it was the 60's
Cheryl Fogel hey bud, you're missing my point. I grew up in the 80's and missed hearing this song during that time frame. . .
Cheryl Fogel It was 1974 not the 60s and I remember hearing it in the 80s living in Texas
I agree with you 100% its as change so much
I grew up on this stuff. It's pure gold to this cowboy. Thanks dad for bringing me up on this music.
I'm so glad I got to grow up hearing this Awesome Music, I'm sure Happy I was a part of it
True classic. Takes me back to when I was a child, early 70's
I hear you all! My country Australia too has gone down the tube! I remember listening to this music in the late 60s, 70s and 80s, this song reminds me of my beautiful parents and I went and visited they're graves today and I just stood there crying because I miss them both so much❤⚘💔💔⚘💙
One of my favorite country songs of all times. So many memories this one brings back.
JohnBoy918 sometimes memories is all we have to hold on to
When i was a kid in the 70's my dad had this on eight track and played it in the car over and over , i got so sick of it. Dads gone now so is the car and the 8 track .I miss them so much i would give anything to go back and hear it over and over again riding with my dad.
It is funny how foolishly stupid we can be when we are younger.
My mom used to call me her "little country bumpkin". She passed away just a couple weeks ago. I miss her so much it literally hurts.
Sorry for you loss buddy stay strong 🙏🙏
It never goes away
So sorry for your loss. I just lost my mom too on march 22 of this yr & my dad will be gone 2 yrs this May. I miss her everyday. Wish I could tell you it gets easier with time.
@@tilliecochran8330 thank you. I know it will never really ease, I just hope to be able to fully accept it. I'm still dealing with everything. I still have my dad, but he had a massive stroke almost 3 years ago and his dementia from it is getting worse. It's almost like watching him fade away. I'm sorry for your loss.
Sorry for your loss. Sounds like you grew up around good people and great music. My mom used to say the same thing to me. She died in 1983. Tonight Is one of those nights, I miss her. I buried my youngest son almost 9 months ago. She would have loved Zac.
I heard this song when I was a young buck in a special time in my life when I was young and carefree, I have never forgotten it, when the internet came on board I found it and so !many more, love you Cal Smith.
Oh! How I love this song!! Cal does a beautiful job singing this!!!
I would sing this to my mom upon the first frost of year after I retired from the army ... this was one of her favorite songs .... this and "I never Promised you a Rose Garden."
This is fabulous and reminds me of meeting my sweet husband about 37 years ago.

MariaGarcia-ho8cw....
It's a shame you didn't understand the words. There's a beautiful story in those words, sad but beautiful ❤
@@lesleygurnick4050Hello! How are you doing today! Please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you're a fan!....Stay safe!
This version of Cal Smith’s is really touching 💞just beautiful
This song makes me cry every time I hear it. My Mom always sang this song when I was a kid.❤
Hello how are you doing today?
My great-grandfather used to sing this song... love you Papaw ❤️🎸🇺🇸
This song is in my top ten country songs of all time. I guess you just had to live it to understand how heavy this Don Wayne song really is. But it hit me young.
Love this song. It reminds me of my grandparents. My grandma is still here, don't know what I'd do without her, but my grandpa just passed away last month. We didn't have much of a relationship because he lived in a different state and barely came to visit, but one thing I knew about him was that he could play country music on his guitar like no other. And he loved to see the world; probably why he drove trucks for a living. I'll miss him.
Hey how are you doing?
