  • RIP Merle! Song starts at 1:38.
    The Waltons - Season 5 Episode 3 - THE COMEBACK (1976)
    Jason's scholarship at the music academy is canceled so he gets a job at the Dew Drop Inn. Red Turner, played by Merle Haggard, who lost his son, played by Ron Howard, in an earlier episode, is grieving and stops performing, but Jason talks him into performing again at the Dew Drop Inn.
    Here is Merle singing the whole song.
    Nobody's Darlin' But Mine
    • Merle Haggard - Nobody...
    Come lay by my side little darlin'
    Come lay your cool hand on my brow
    Promise me that you will always
    Be nobody's darlin' but mine
    You're as sweet as the flowers of springtime
    You're as pure as the dew from the rose
    And I'd rather be somebody's darlin'
    Than a poor boy that nobody knows
    Be nobody's darlin' but mine love
    Be honest be faithful be kind
    And promise me that you will always
    Be nobody's darlin' but mine
    Goodbye little darlin' I'm leaving
    I'm leaving this cold world behind
    So promise me that you will never
    Be nobody's darlin' but mine
    Full song written by Jimmie Davis

      Merle Haggard lifted his entire vocal style from LEFTY FRIZZELL. It was so blatant both he and Lefty use to joke about it. Merle was a better songwriter but it was Lefty's style that continues to influence country singing to this day.

    My Dad and I both were always HUGE fans of Merle Haggard and he always sang Nobody’s Darlin to me when I was little. He wanted it played at his funeral but my awful mother wouldn’t allow it. So every time I visit my Dad’s grave, I always play this song along with a few other songs of Merle’s my Dad loved….😓
