This was 1 of my father's favorite MTB songs. I had the pleasure of seeing them live in Houston in 84 with my mother and father. Saw them again in the spring on 05 with my father. Rest in peace pop, you checked out with your spurs still on.

[@rodcampbell715]

I’ve been MTB fan for 40 years. This is one of my “ kick back” songs from them. Lots of covers but nobody sings it better than Doug Gray. I’ve made some my biggest and best decisions in life in the saddle with the MTB in my Walkman. Yeah, I’m that old.

[@davidmccaffery7977]

What a tune! Classic Tucker.. love it!

[@melaniemartin5008]

ALWAYS one of my favorites by Tucker because it's a classic letting everyone jam on their instrument!! Priceless!! Off one of the best albums, too. Sure do miss dem boys!!

MTB were deep into coke use by time of production. Ironically it yielded their greatest hit,'Heard It In A Love Song' which only compounded more drugs. Tuckers best songs came before this album.

[@jdeaton5093]

Whats coke got to do with it? U trying to make the boys out to be junkies or something. Big hairy deal they enjoyed some toot, hell everybody was doing it back then
