Every time you hear a McMurtry song, it's your favorite.

Top of line

One of the best songs ever written. He is hugely underrated. This will be played at my funeral. Period.

[@davidlindley171]

Ditto! Speechless, tears in my eyes yet again, just like his rendition of "Dry River"...

[@RendaJane]

My husband has covered at memorials of close friends. It’s impossible for him to get through it without tears. 😭 I dread hearing it tomorrow. I don’t want to admit we lost our best.

[@megandavis360]

One of the most beautiful songs ever written

[@straggler1009]

[@CiceroCanova]

I have listened to this song over and over for the last three nights and cannot get it out of my head. I hope it stays there for good.

Most underrated genius of these times. No questions

[@richardjohnson3463]

Soulfull exellence, thank you, No one does it better

[@A_Pa-Plainjane]

good music if you are depressed or want to stay that way. But getting to happy may need a pit-stop in depression sometimes. I've been there and come back, so there is life after being down and feeling out.

[@easydiddit]

The man does set a mood.

[@parrottmob]

My favourite musician and song writer by a mile 8) There is nobody like him . Would love to see him live.

[@Texasflycaster]

Try coming to Denton, Texas. He sneaks into Dans Silver Leaf when he has a free date.

Not a hot cup of coffee, nor a cold glass of tea Ever crossed your lips in my company Straight bourbon whiskey was all we'd abide So let's don't hold back now, we've got nothing to hide. So much we savoured, yet so much we missed You know I never meant you to see me like this Just a faint distant flicker from the last of the storm You know a taste of that liquor could do me no harm. Light me a candle, light me a fire Come sit by the window with the shades drawn To the best of intentions and the worst of desires We'll leave by the Gulf Road in the grey dawn. I take a short handled shovel, I take a long handled hoe Cover my bones when the West wind blows Smooth it off even, pack it down hard I'll no more be here but I'll never be far I'll no more be here but I'll never be far. Light me a candle, light me a fire Come sit by the window with the shades drawn To the best of intentions and the worst of desires We'll leave by the Gulf Road in the grey dawn We'll leave by the Gulf Road in the grey dawn.
