This is one of the finest songs ever written. It reminds me of my dad, Hank Keels. He grew up in a sharecroppers cabin in Trinity County, Texas during the 1920s and 1930s. In my mind's eye, I can see him listening to the radio, looking over the fields of cotton, fishing in Caney Creek with an old cane pole and walking to to school with his older brother, Bill. I'm 71 years old and my dad has been gone for 36 years . The winds of yesterday frequently blow on me.
I sure do miss the 70s, 80s and 90s. The music🎷 today is not even the same. Sometimes I wish I could find a time machine and go back in time. Life was much easier and everyone enjoyed life! Is this your favorite song?
I rode the rails one summer, I was 15 then,,, One has time to think, reflections upon life and values. I came away from that summer with a outlook of "What was right was not always best and what was best was not always right".
This guy Boxcar Willie -- can really sing country. His control, tone, and sincerity are marvelous. The band of musicians he has behind him -- all superb. This man was no novelty act. Except for wearing his hobo clothes, he was not hokey. He was the real deal for traditional country. This song is great. He had some success in his career but I think he deserves to be recognized at a higher level.
You 186 people that don’t like this pure country music ,what do you like ,singers that run ,screaming ,dress like their working in the barn ,sorry go listen to something else ,other then our pure country music .All these people that post this music that tells a story Thankyou ,for letting us listen to it.
As I listen to this song and these words I can visualize practically every line, having grown up in rural northwest Alabama in the late 30's and 40's. Wonderful, beautiful song, perfectly done by Boxcar. Thanks for great memories.
What a beautiful song. Reminds me of my Grandmother. This man can really sing and I just know that today he walks among Heavenly Angels in the Kingdom of the Most High and sings to the King Himself.
I grew up in the 80's listening to this singer on the radio. I agree with all the comments on here. He deserves more credit for his singing style and delivery. An underated singer who should be remembered as one of the best of his generation!!!
Boxcar he can sing country music he is the best I played his music for four hours none stop when you listen to him like he is sending a message to all those that love country music he is love but he is miss God bless his soul he was a great man💐🌹🌷🐍
Just came across Boxcar today, at my age too! It just goes to remind me that there are still brilliant, ok people out there even in these troubled times.
Boxcar patted my oldest boy on the back the very first time I met him he said well soon I see I put one to sleep but you know what folkes I went to Branson many times an Box car Willie was my favorite show amen
Great song. Box was one of the finest singers of classic country! Not a true CMHOF without Boxcar Willie. As good as any male singer in there, and better than most!
Good singing willie you are a great 👍 country singer 👨🎤 love ❤️ your voice it’s amazing how much I appreciate you and listen to music. Thanks 😊 it’s still fun singing along with you I’m 72 yrs old and I’m still kicking it god bless
I couldn't agree with you more ! His style, grace, and voice is one that cannot be duplicated. I am sure he sits with Angels in his Heavenly mansion daily and sings and sings.
Best of the best country singer...Winds of yesterday are blowing on me when i hear him...God Bless us all with more beautiful music from good genuine kind sweet Godly men & women....
A BLESSED HAPPY MEMORIES OF MY DEAR PRECIOUS MOTHER AND FATHER RUBY AND STANLEY B PITTER IN NEW YORK CITY BECAUSE OF YOU BOTH AND THE WAY YOU BROUGHT ME UP TO LIVE IN THE FAIR OF YASHUA JESUS CHRIST I AM THE WOMAN I AM TODAY AND I AM SO HAPPY AND THANKFUL TO YOU BOTH I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU BOTH ALWAYS YOUR BABY PRIMROSE PITTER.

94 people with no soul. How can you dislike this great country legend? He's the best.
We can listen to this song all day long! Love Boxcar Willie's songs.
Another one who should be in the Country Music Hall of Fame. This is one of the best songs, I have ever heard.
Levi's you
I cannot stop playing this.
I grew up hearing Box Car Willie on the Late Late Show with Gay Byrne in Ireland. I loved him then and I will always love him! A legend

He deserves to be in the CMHOF. A lot better than many in there!
Yes, Boxcar Willie should be inducted to the Country Music Hall of Fame. He is one of the best country singers.

Art Linkletter was a hobo back in the 30s. He had many hobos on his show. A great man of yesterday
A much higher level. I always thought that. Same for Bonnie Guitar.
I don’t know how anyone can dislike this song or the man singing it
Beyond description....there is no “one word” to exemplify this song and its singer. Thank you B.W. Rest In Peace
Singing in heaven
Einfach grossartig

They should have cloned this man, so that his voice and style would never have been lost, to the entertainment world.
Yes. Today's entertertainment world is disgusting.
