I grew up with my mom and brother (we had different dads, and he never met his). My mom loved hard-core criminals, so that's what we grew up with. She was an unstable and abusive mother, but I've remembered this album and song from when I was 10 and we lived in AZ with another of her criminal boyfriends. This song specifically stayed with me for 50 years and I JUST found it here. I even remembered some of the lyrics. A MAGNIFICENT song and album. I've searched for this in the past but never had luck finding it. Thank God for UA-cam. I love this. Talented talented man who touched the heart of at least 1 abused little girl with this song. God bless Vernon Ray. And for what it's worth... the boyfriends and husband (who was shot to death by the Fed's during a kidnapping), besides him, they were ALL kinder than my mom ever was.
My late brother, Barry Smith played on this 50 years ago. Corey Smith.
