 * The link to allmusic.com, which is the source for the Willie Nelson recording, goes to a list of Nelson's albums and does not mention this song. Perhaps Nelson's version is listed at allmusic in a list with other versions?  Need that fixed, anyway.

One of my favorite songs. I saw Grandpa Jones sing this in concert. Let me know when the two sourcing issues are fixed. Everything else seems right about this. — Maile (talk) 21:28, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
 * I made the fixes you were looking for. When I found a book source that speaks of Willie's cover I also found out that it charted. -- Guerillero &#124;  My Talk  22:58, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
 * On the Willie Nelson one, can you please narrow it down to a specific page number or two? I'm pretty sure GA will also be a stickler about this.— Maile  (talk) 23:10, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
 * The several hundred page long book doesn't have page numbers -- Guerillero &#124;  My Talk  23:49, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Well, why don't you go back to allmusic.com and do a search under the song title. I'm pretty sure it will pull up a list of artists who have recorded this song.  If Willie Nelson is one of them, link to that part in allmusic.com where it shows the list.  — Maile  (talk) 23:52, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

 * Link 2 iis perfect. Stick it in the article at the end of that sentence about Willie Nelson. — Maile  (talk) 00:01, 16 January 2014 (UTC)
