The beginning of the 2nd verse has a weird sound to the 1st syllable...
There're some sibilant things that could be treated easily enough.
nothing is quite so good as learning while enjoying.
I did both.
Johnny Cash sings Marty Robbins.
Cool, thanks.

Thanks RayC.
Must be my accent.

I do have trouble with sibilance though. I'm forever fiddling with EQ.

Vic,

A good story song. Well told. The right kind of "simple" production for the song style.

Nicely done.

This is an excellent song. It has that "classic" and easy feel to it like I get when listening to Johnny Cash. The guitar accompaniment is outstanding - supports the song without distracting. The lyrics are excellent and I always enjoy a good story.
