I played this song for my dad last night and he turned purple. It was so cool.

BTW, this song rocks.

I love this song. I was singing it in the park the other day.

My bf was going on about some girl in college that he liked a lot....just a bit TOO much!

So i picked up my guitar, said the song was just for him and played Good enough for now

He hasn't mentioned her since

hi, does anyone know which country artist this is a style parody of?

that is, if this is even a style parody? it really does sound like a certain country artist but i really cant put my finger on it....

thanks!

I don't really think he had a specific artist in mind. More just country music in general.

(That said I can totally hear Johnny Cash singing it)

I think this is Al's greatest original...behind "I Was Only Kidding" of course.

Having watched "Walk The Line" multiple times recently and being subjected to a ton of his work throughout my life, I can safely agree with this statement.

Then again, I'm visualizing Elvis Presley doing it right now too...

But yes, I thoroughly enjoy hearing this song. He could do this one live and I'd love it... but I don't think Al is going to do a different Polka Party! original any time soon in the set list.

Thanks for posting that, Helen. They actually did a pretty good job with it.

I agree that this song is very underrated. I discovered this song late because I only had Permanent Record for many years. Only last year did I get the rest of Al's songs that weren't on PR. I was pleasantly surprised when I first heard this song. Al should do a little more country. If you want to hear another great country-sounding song that's making fun of country music, check out Gin Blossom's "Cheatin'" from their album "New Miserable Experience".

I still agree with my review from 8 years ago. Great song. 4 out of 5 stars.
