1977 I was 17 and my uncle bought me my first beer in a bar and this was the first song I heard on the juke box drinking my first beer in a bar. Miss you Uncle Royce. Love the Kendalls!!

What a GREAT GREAT memory. Much love from Mobile Alabama.

He had to be one of the proudest dads in the world to be able to join such a talented daughter on stage......RIP Royce

[@terrytaylor5328]

Traditional Country is where it's at. The stuff radio stations play over the air waves today doesn't hold a candle to great country songs like this.

So true.

Ran away at 17 to Delaware Ohio and at this restaurant they were playing this song. I loved it.

I love this, I saw them on Hee Haw when I was little, I'm 59 now and I still love it. God bless you ❤

[@bigzach1000]

Royce was a total champ of a harmonizer/backing vocalist. He sticks to her vocals like velcro... you don't even notice him, it just comes at you as one smooth sound.

[@melissawilliams2325]

I agree

[@christopherworkman4397]

I might be 24 years old but I’ll take old country music any day instead of this i drive my daddies truck crap they play on the radio now

[@michelsavoie6971]

I hear ya..... new Country is like crappy rock, with stupid guitar solos. It's not like back in the day.

[@michelsavoie6971]

Don't take me wrong, I'm a fan of old Country and Classic Rock. I don't care for the blend. But I guess, it's evolution ;)

[@brianwaugaman9954]

Great song. Sung by a Father & his daughter. Love it.

[@shelleyi01342]

I love this song. When I was a kid (born in 1969) I listened to it over and over. I still have the record.

[@ameliacullen389]

I heard this song so long ago it’s on a cassette I still own, it brings back so many memories, what a wonderful song.

[@charlescanterbury9762]

Jeannie has one of the most underrated voices of all time, just incredible

[@PapagenoMF]

It's a little grating actually.

[@marlenedarr8941]

I always thought this song was inappropriate for Father and daughter to sing. imo.

[@63DW89A]

Family harmonies are untouchable. Some songs are best as a male-female duet meaning a father-daughter or brother-sister. Listen to "I heard the bluebirds sing". Marty Robbins does a good version as do Jim and Jesse. But neither male version can touch the versions by Jim Ed & Maxine Brown (brother-sister) or Hugh & Maria Doherty (Father-Daughter).

[@mariannem3935]

it's squeaky not enough body

[@kcb5336]

Hairy Mo Yep. But in tune.

[@bluebear7061]

Country music today can’t compare to the Kendall’s. Pure . Basic. Story telling at its best.

[@tnelson4593]

Watching the video you can see Royce look over at his daughter while she is singing and smile.He was admiring her accomplished vocal skill and he was proud father. R.I.P. Royce

You are 100% correct.......

[@mikepeters3187]

Sure do miss this old great time country music these days on the radio. These were the glory years, what talent and passion! Love and miss you Jeannie and Royce! Thank you ever so kind people for sharing your gifts with all who feel uplifted when you sing!

[@sonyahannah]

Raised Southern Baptist, I've always been a bit shocked by how much I LOVE this song!

[@beatnikrn2945]

You remind me of my aunt. She was in her late teens or early 20’s when this song was popular. I was about 4 and I remember watching them sing this live at my grandparents house one Friday night. I asked her if she liked the song and she said “I do like it. But I know I shouldn’t.” She was also raised Southern Baptist. My mothers family was Jewish so I never understood why she would feel guilty for liking a song, lol.

[@mwduck]

My late mother, who put the "Baptist" in Southern Baptist, would sit at the piano and play/sing this one. Just a catchy tune.

[@deecylewis6848]

Well my southern Baptist grandmother loved it too. That's why I'm here. I miss her❤️

[@larongrey1961]

LOVE is here!

[@user-lg9zw8yv3s]

Im a recovering Baptist.

[@bluegrasscannuk]

One of my all time favorite country songs. Great Daughter and dad harmony. The catchy parts are when they run one line into the other without pause.

[@susanramp1478]

A GREAT Father and Daughter team!! Love their songs! :)

[@honestj820]

Hello 👋 how are you doing?

[@WornoutRNPARAMEDIC]

He was her father. Her mother didn't want her to go out on the road unless her dad would go along to take care of their daughter.

[@gordonbelle1375]

And he sings softly to let his daughter have the shine. Respect that.

They played at kain yuk territory a theme park in western ky and I was playing fiddle and mandolin in some of the shows in the park working my way threw college when Royce's winked at.me while I was playing I went home and got a friend to put my name on my guitar just like his lol

They came to Uniontown Pa back in 1980. I was a 5 or 6 year old boy who wore out a lot of record needles playing this single

[@jasoncrovello6049]

I saw Jeannie and Royce at the Rehoboth Fair 1988. They were the sweetest people. At the end of the show when they took pictures and signed autographs, they really took their time. You could tell they were genuinely enjoying themselves.

[@Mattea68]

I heard they were some of the nicest people

I remember when this song hit the street. I thought it was great then and still do. Thanks KZbin.

Why can't people record GOOD Country Music like this any more?

[@jimmyrandall9233]

People don't record country music like this anymore is becsuse the meth smokein youngsters don't get off to it,they would have boom box booming ,something that don't make sinse

People can record music like this ,but it want sell

[@jimmyrandall9233]

Meth heads don't like country mucic,it don't rattle their brains like the boom box does

[@Richard-vq7ud]

It is because people like it too much.

[@teddiev2720]

I just love the “Old”Country. The “New” Country sounds like regular pop music to me. Although I was just telling my sisters yesterday that the words in those songs really had an influence on me as a young to teen growing up in the 70’s girl. I sometimes wish I didn’t listen it in away.

[@gulfgypsy]

Beautiful voice, beautiful lady, beautiful memories.

[@cumminsrealpower680]

Just one more reason I hate today's so-called country music. This is a classic. Miss the days when you could turn on ANY country music station and hear these great country songs. Today's so-called country music is like fingernails on a chalkboard. IMO.

[@mathewkromeo2934]

tractor rap.

[@horridus4879]

I agree county music today is not country.

[@blythkd9017]

Country promoters don't concern themselves with talent anymore. All they're interested in is what someone looks like and if they think they can be dressed up into a persona that sells. The talent is secondary.

I haven't heard this song in years. I stumbled back into it this last week and it's part of the songs on my iphone plus several more of theirs. I also found "I Swear" by John Michael Montgomery..I sung this song to my sweet hubby Jerry after a near fatal wreck that put him in a wheelchair for life but together Jerry and I made it. I simply titled my faves under The Kendall's so I have them to listen to when I want a lift up. Jerry and Sugar Bear are happily watching Dale Earnhardt Sr race in Heaven with the Angels. I plan on joining Jerry and Sugar Bear and Dale Earnhardt Sr and listen to the beautiful music and watch Dale race to win with Angels. Thank you. Gloria and Bear

I was assigned the NATO Headquarters when this song came out. I was a member of the Rhineland Baptist Church then, Paster Roy Griggsby heard me singing this song while I was dusting the piano and he said “You can’t sing that trash in here” I said “Why not Pastor, God hears me sing it all the time, besides it’s a Gospel song” he just shook his head.
