An old song written by Buck Owens in the early '60s. I think I dislike all of his recordings. Of everything. Ray Charles did probably the best version of this (why does that not surprise me?) but there doesn't seem to be a clean recording posted. Emmy Lou's hair started turning gray when she was about 25, so this must be early. A beautiful voice. A beautiful woman - even with minimal make-up. It will do nicely.

Excellent choices.
I never cared for Buck Owens either something about him just did not suit me. This lady however, just squeezes my heart. She has gentle eyes which will make anyone pretty and I love to watch her mouth when she sings. Not many singers remain pretty while singing.
Early I'm sure her hair hasn't been that short in 30 years.
Thanks Neil. She just gets prettier. She is one of those women that turn me into a (more than usual) babbling idiot when I'm in their presence. I've never been in her presence but I would chance it.
