Dwight is one of the most under appreciated country music entertainers. Great voice...great writer...great performer!
He was Very appreciated in the 80s and 90s, where were you?
i generally can’t stand country but he’s one of a small handful of artists i truly love - i saw him in Melbourne, FL a few years ago and he put on a great show
Always thought he was never given the recognition he truly deserves.One of country music's greatist talents.
Everyone I know loves Dwight.
Unique Style of voice! Just makes you want to listen!!
I love him !!
Was played at my Sons Funeral, Took his life Struggling Alcohol, This Song has given me some peace of Mind, I Dearly miss my Boy Aaron, Love him so Much!!!!
So sad sorry for loss
Beautiful Song!
Lost my only brother going on 3 yr. This song comforts me also!
I'm sorry for your loss. I'm thankful for 10 years sober. It's a struggle few understand. I'm sure he loved those who knew him.
I'm so sorry y'all lost yer son. May he RIP. He's in God's Hands now.
Dwight Yoakum is one of the most underrated singers of all time. I'd put him in the same class as Waylon and Merle.
He's never been underrated. You talk like someone from CNN
@@mikekelly9851 CNN.. Please don't insult me like that.😬
The best. I agree, most underrated of all times
100%
He is Absolutely a American treasure but this man couldnt hold a candle to Merle Haggards and he would tell u the same
He’s so talented... I wish country still sounded this pure. No auto tune....
I agree with you.
Perfection! ⭐️💙💙💙💙💙⭐️
AMEN
I wish auto tune never invented!!!!
@@robertjarrard4541
Yesum the real good ones died early to early but they walked in played it once and it went to vinyl Patsy Hank Loretta mother Maybell and the Carter's and don't ever forget OMG please forgive me I can't remember her name for the life of me I am so ashamed
He is singing about many many Vietnam Veterans. My respect and my gratitude.
My late husband included
Hooraaww
Thank you for your service!

Can I get a Rebel yell!!!
I was in a restaurant in North Carolina one time, and there was a large family group dining next to me. When they got up to leave, two young boy cousins hugged each other. That public expression of love left a lasting impression on me. There is a certain quality of character that only Southerners have. Don't let the forces that are at work today take your traditions and heritage away from you!
Bomb: Bet you had a Cuz Crush.
Yankee debauchery ain't got nuthin on Rebel pride
THANK you so much for your perception, Darlin'! One of my favorite sayings comes from the movie Two Moon Junction; it's "Darlin', don't EVER take a Southern woman for granted!" I wouldn't trade my heritage and my accent for a million DOLLARS. Bless your heart ♥
Born in God's country, I'd bet that family would have asked you to share their table if they had any idea you wouldn't be insulted, or insult them. When a Southerner goes up north, we experience culture shock. I cried 3 times my first day in NYC. If you're here, you need help, just let us know that you realize "rednecks" aren't stupid, they think before they speak. They are gentlemen in jeans and boots, usuaually dirty from working what they love. God bless the USA, especially Dixie!
There are no forces doing that. Unless you want to believe the two sides of cable news. If you’re bond and your family is so weak that anything Hannity or Meadow has to say has an impact oh they’re doomed anyway
This man has been so overlooked. Phenomenal talent.
Dwight is a GOAT ,,, dont let anyone fool you
What does da "REFERENCE TO DA 'GOAT',MEAN?¿
greatest of all time@@FrankLocklear-cl8gq
@@Trifelivinus
❤ loved him since I was a little kid. Always wanted to see him in concert
I just wanna cry when I hear this song bc it reminds me of someone I love. I couldn't live outside of Dixie. I could never be happy any place else. I treasure my home state of Tennessee and I'm proud to be an East Tennessean. American by birth. Southern by the grace of God.
Good job Sticky.
MIddle Tn, Amen!
I’m sick of people thinking I’m an asshole because of the way I sound
I feel the same about my great state of Louisiana
@@jamesmoyes3006 Is this just a local complaint or are you living in New York?
As good as it gets....not only did he write this song, he absolutely performs it magically!
Great Song. I Love My Dixie.
One of my faves by Dwight. Haunting. Bottle had robbed him of all his "rebel" pride😢
Listen to me son while you still can... powerful...❤
I had this cassette ❤
Wow. No band. No fancy voice enhancing equipment. Yet, DY belts out a perfectly flawless rendition of the original recording. That's country music AND Dixie at it's finest.
An acustic guitar can speak volumes if its made correctly. Just like a genuine Strad, it won't need amplification.
Almost like foxx talking to the troops in jarheads just listen u see
Yup.
Watching g from the U.K….. in awe! Fabulous
Google _ Dwight Yoakam at Buck Owens funeral. It brings a tear to my eye. I don't know how he did it.
Dixie means Mom and apple pie and sometimes pecan pie. Dixie means love of God and country and good neighbors. Dixie means respect for old people and those who are gone. Dixie means love for the Flag and remembrance. I remember when U.S.A. meant the same.
Yea that's Dixie. Waving at your neighbor even if you don't really know them. Opening the door for the elderly. And children. Saying a prayer before you eat. Thanking god for what you have. Country music. And apple pie,,,
Confederate Flag is a Flag of Honor and love of Country and God.
Still does USA,USA,USA....liberty is cool....hehehe...
To you but to other people it doesn't bring back such good memories
Amen brother!
One of the few artists who have a voice even more powerful live than recorded. With his range, it shouldn't even be possible.
Love when they are even better singing live. Those are the best ones❤
His rich beautiful baritone just glides effortlessly through the notes. What a joy to hear and watch...grossly underrated. That Voice.
I am an old Yankee, used to roof in Austin, lived in Round Rock, I am Indian, Mexican and Scottish, I NEVER had a problem in the south. Not all us Yankees are ass-holes. Bless their hearts m
Bless your HEART, Darlin' ♥
I sang Dixie at Dad's graveside service, President of the Civil War Round Table in Dallas, then President to Son's of Confederate Veterans in Tyler, a true historian of this era. He will always be remembered. Love you Dad!
RIP
RIP Good Sir
How does it feel to be the descendent of seditionists? You better not have the balls to claim yourself as an American, if you pay homage to any part of the CSA or any paricipant in that astroturfed "rebellion" 🙄🙄 you started and lost. 🤣🤣🤣 Sedition is not a good look, yo.
historian of a slave state and a traitorous government
Love 'em while ya got 'em.
I'm a black girl from Chicago but the best time of my life was when I went to stay with my grandparents in Vardamen Mississippi when I was 8-9 while my mom went to jail.
Some of the nicest people I've ever encountered.
I live in Portland now and I'm looking to move back to get away from all this chaos.
God bless Dixieland ✌
Girl, get out of there and go home.
And God bless you.
I'm from Texas, I think black folks are much happier in the South, despite the history. I see black folks every where, they seem much happier down here than they do in New York or Chicago or Baltimore. It seems like nothing but misery in those northern cities, cold and grey.
@@MattSpoon07
I work with all races in the South once and all got along. Dont believe in the Southern stereotype
Beautiful sentiment Sista. Long Live Dixie!
Never heard this song before. My heart's so heavy as we're not even allowed to say the word Dixie (my aunt's name) any more without an inaccurate label. Our Southern culture & way of life is being wiped out. Lost my parents this year & realize as history is being re-written future generations will never know their roots; close families, gracious manners, proud with enormous hearts, loyal, classy with spunk, warm, and elders being treated with respect & dignity ... all "Gone with the wind". Thank you for posting! ⚘🦋😢
You're not allowed to say Dixie only if you choose.
You say Dixie anytime you want. Stand your ground and hold your head up high as you say the word. I was born in Indiana but love the southern way of life and the great landscapes down there.
@@jayjaynella4539 People get angry. The owner of the Saints in New Orleans changed the name of the Dixie Beer Factory (she owns it & half of New Orleans ) that's been on the Mississippi over 100 yrs in the Warehouse District, because some players found it offensive. All the Southern streets are being renamed & statues have already been torn down. The more that is erased from true Southern culture, the less kind people are to one another. Why can't we all get just get along & respect all cultures & roots. I love manners, kind people, respect for elders, and making people feel at home. Southern born, Southern bred & will die in Dixie. 🙄🕇
We have to stop being concerned with what people think. The woke mobs power dies when we carry on as we please and do and say what we want. It's that simple.
That's why you save old books on paper. The new ones will digitally remove anything the publishers don't want.
I'm Dixie born & raised. U can take me away from Dixie but U can't take the Dixie out of me.
Home is where the heart is, then my heart belongs in Dixie. Maybe it's the way I talk. So I've been told. I have seen it all. I tell folks : "U do U & I'll do me"..My granddaughter told me that one night at the supper table....Love to visit the North but
the South land is my home. One day the dew will no longer fall below the Mason Dixie line. Then I will rest knowing that I have lived & died in Dixie. Thank you Dwight.......
Im so honored to have been born in Dixie and lived in the South my entire life. Thank You JESUS and Thank You Dwight.
Thank The Good Lord.A True Country Girl or Lady.Sure glad We still have Southern Bell's like You Pamela.
78 years here and loving it
I'm born and raised in California but I have been to Dixie and was treated with nothing but respect. I hope to get back there before I die
Yes ma'am. If Heaven ain't a lot like Dixie I don't want to go

Beautiful song and his voice is so beautiful....I love this song.....I do think he is one of the most underrated singers in country music ....He is so talented.....Love Dwight...
This song reminds me of my wife. It was her favorite song before she lost battling cancer, I wish I could change the hands of time, I never missed a moment with her, life could be so unfair most times but sometimes I wonder why bad things always happen to good people.
Hell of a song and singer, even here in June of 2021…….
K C This borderline blows me away, his vocals, his smooth clear and concise guitar playing and lyrics. While Buck Owen's looks on with the look of utmost respect for him, damn. I've no words for this, legendary.
There is a video of Dwight singing this song at Buck's 2006 funeral.
What does June 2021 have to do with anything, and why do so many people (insert year here) in their comments? How unoriginal.
@@canadianroot because the music is timeless. It is so great that even a thousand years from now it will be great.
@@thevictorianedge5465 thank you dear, I really appreciate you all my lovely fans
This song never gets old . So beautiful
I love it and I was born and raised in California but have been to Dixie where I had friends of all colors
G-d bless the South, where Real American values still live.
I took this song and sang it at my dad's funeral. I did apologize to Dwight for my word changes but I wanted it to reflect my dad's life. Born in Arkansas and moved to Illinois after military career. So I was singing to mostly yankees and told them I wasn't apologizing to them. But I know he reunited with his parents and brothers, all of which are buried in the south.
I don’t get it. What do you mean you weren’t apologizing to them? Was it an African American audience? I’m sorry for your loss.
Alley family came from. The south. I grew up in Illinois. Still love this.
She said, "Yankees!"
I get it even if no one else does. To many people from north of the Mason Dixon line Dixie represents a racist , repressive society.
But Most of us born and raised in Dixie made peace with those issues a long time ago. To us it’s home, where we spent summers at some swimming hole, or winters following a dam beagle down some ditch in Freezing weather for a shot at a rabbit that was way smarter than the dog and us as well. During a protracted battle for Petersburg Va. General Lee remarked that to the Union Army Petersburg was just a strategic town that they needed to take. But to Robert E. Lee it was the town where he had met , courted , and married his wife. Dixie means different things to different people. You needn’t apologize again.
Beautiful song
I love how Dwight hooked up with Buck and they collaborated some great songs you can see the admiration both have for each other's talent and friendship. RIP Buck Owens you are missed.
I have followed Dwight's career since the 80s. He was one of the last old school musicians to emerge in Nashville. Country music has since become overproduced. It is more about social media and how attractive the musician is than their talent. Many of these older musicians can no longer get airplay on radio. I don't even know if Dwight has been inducted yet into the Grand Ole Opry. Anyways, he is still a heavy hitter in my books. Writes his own lyrics and music too.
He, also, had to produce and distribute his debut album. The record companies wouldn't take him on.
He proved them, powerfully, wrong.
He emerged out of Los Angeles and the Bakersfield Sound, rock/rockabilly/honky-tonk influences. Pretty sure all of his albums were recorded at Capital Studio under the Reprise Label (Warner Brothers). That’s in Hollywood.
Very much not a Nashville Sound, Countrypolitan, Pop Country artist. By the early 90s he did have a little neoclassical going on though.
I agree. My aunt lived and loved on old country and Dwight was the last country singer she let into her singing repertoire. My dad showed her Dwight and she was hooked. Love you aunt Mary. See you in Paradise ❤
@@brkfstfdHe's freaking amazing. Just what country needed!
Beats the hell out of all this "bro country" crap we hear today! Dwight's the real deal.
Damn right!!
Did you expect anything less from Dwight my KY brother?
Fo sho, my bro.
I got a song called "The 80's blues" = I'd be obliged if ya'll came for a listen.
Ain't worth a damn anymore. I don't have any hip hop country stations programmed,,, for damn sure
One of the best country music songs ever written. Just perfect.
Still loving this beautiful and mournful song in 2022.Dwight the supreme talent...so loved.
I'm sitting in a van outside of the sagebrush clinic in Bakersfield CALIFORNIA,,. I am from born and raised in North Carolina, Dixie... Thanks Dwight,and thanks Buck... I understand this Song.
I'm in oswaldtwistle ,so do . I
Out on the Streets of Bakersfield. Another one of my favorites ❤
Come on home brother.
I sang Dixie as he died.
The people just walked on by as I cried.
The bottle had robbed him of all his rebel pride,
So I sang Dixie as he died.
He said way down yonder in the land of cotton
Old times there ain't near as rotten as they are
On this damned old L.A. street.
Then he drew a dying breath
And laid his head against my chest.
Please. Lord, take his soul back home to Dixie.
I sang Dixie as he died.
The people just walked on by as I cried.
The bottle had robbed him of all his rebel pride,
So I sang Dixie as he died.
He said, "Listen to me, Son, while you still can.
Run back home to that Southern land.
Don't you see what life here has done to me?"
Then he closed those old gray eyes
And fell limp against my side.
No more pain, now he's safe back home in Dixie.
I sang Dixie as he died.
The people just walked on by as I cried.
The bottle had robbed him of all his rebel pride,
So I sang Dixie as he died.
I sang Dixie as he died...
Thank you for the words.
This Song almost makes me cry but God how I Love it.To Live and Die in Dixie.
THANK YOU !!🎶
Amen
KEEP SINGING ABOUT DIXIE DWIGHT !! THEY CAN'T TAKE OUR MUSIC AWAY !
Nobody has done anything but strengthened our resolve and called us out to stand for our home. Dixie! God bless. May we all live well!
+Shirley D They can't take our songs, our flag, our General, our peaceful culture, nor our spirit.
+WT Hendrix Thanks WT. The more others gripe , the more resolve I get. They don't seem to get it. History is History and no person can change it.
+Shirley D - This is a beautiful song. Unfortunately the concept of "Dixie" has a lot of negative connotations, and rightly so. I'm from "The South", and I'll tell you right now the concept of Dixie is obsolete and just plain foolish. But many in the deep south need to cling to something. They have very little in the way of education, jobs, etc. So I understand why they hang onto their "Rebel Pride" - but I still believe it's glorifying something that died off long ago. And it won't be coming back. Whenever I hear someone say "the South will rise again" - it just makes my skin crawl. Almost all the wealth of the Old South was concentrated in the hands of a relative few, and it was 90% based on slave labor. Is that anything to be proud of? I don't think so.
Ima SuperPerson
Then move to Chicago. Baltimore. New York. Boston. Philly. Cleveland.
The New South thank God is still the same. Be better if you were not in it. Ungrateful betraying windbag. Pffft.
It still lives in my heart. All the destruction of our heritage is making me feel more and more less an “American.”
There is no reason to destroy any monuments, look, learn, move forward, it’s things that happen before our time, Learn from history
People need to understand it’s not hate it’s heritage. We’re a proud people.
American by birth, Southern by the grace of God. ❤

Can you imagine how proud he was to sing on the same stage as his idol??? Helluva song, I've cried to it a million times.

More than anything else, Dixie means HOME. Without her, we have no roots ... ♥🕊

Dwight is a very good singer!! Love his music.
Virginia McIntyre has to Nikki on if io gg I I guyot
He wrote this in Los Angeles, enjoying life out there, but also saying thanks to the good things in the south. Not anything political
Who cares if it was. People who do not take heed in politics must except to be ruled by interior man.. Socrates
I like a lot of these comments I'm straight out of the damn Georgia Woods Dixie is my life and it'll always be like I said before you don't like it get the F out
He says why he wrote this song at the start dumb ass
Just saw Dwight perform in Raleigh NC last night with The Mavericks, it was outstanding. I have seen him sing about 4 times, met him at a rodeo in so Cal, love love love him.
I love this song. I am a born and bred southern boy and I love my south! If you aint a southerner, you just cant understand it.
They can understand that we from the south will tell you how shit is and if you cross us we'll kick your ass!
Hey william hows it hangin??well i dont really agree with that im an albertan,,(northern Canada)..and i can tell you there's many of us from up here and all over Canada that love his music...in fact he's one of my biggest inspirations as i am a songwriter myself...cheers tho
I'm no Southerner but a born and bred Scot. Proud of my heritage but relate strongly to the Southern psyche.
Mississippi here, and I promise this song definitely speaks to me.
William Cason Dwight was raised in Columbus Ohio. Parents are from Kentucky I think and he was born there but he was raised in Ohio and even attended Ohio State. His style is very unique.
One of the most beautiful songs ever.
Always like Dwight Yoakam ever since I first heard him perform very talented man very good singer and songwriter and the song I sang Dixie no wonder it went to number one very very good song but very sad God bless Dwight Yoakam and Buck Owens.
Hey how are you doing….?
Totally beautiful. I have a friend who died a few back. I think of him a son of the South and Veteran ..God rest him
I love this song!! It's a way of life for southern people. I don't care who doesn't like it.
I wonder if anyone but us Southerners feel this song way down deep in their soul?
Absolutely
rdkg2 it's in the clear gorgeous water here in the south, were born with it in our blood.
Oh, yes, I remember having tears streaming down my face the first time I heard this song, years ago in Idaho, and it still touches me deep. Dwight was doing a concert in Boise shortly after that. The wife and I went, and she became as big a fan of his as I was then, and still am today.
Plus 1 from NC here!
hard telling, not knowing.
Went to see Dwight in concert back around 1994 in Rapid City, SD when I was stationed at Ellsworth AFB. My folks came down from Montana to go with me. They're both gone now, may God rest their souls. But I will always remember that concert with them. Amazing song, amazing talent.
I love this song, it always bring a tear to my eye. I'm a New York Irish kid, but I heard this song after I learned my father didn't have long to live. Besides being a great song, this has always held a piece of my heart. I always sing along, sorry Dwight. Hard to believe it's almost 27 years.
Thank you for not letting the reference to Dixie deter you from recognizing this song is about a person dying in a lonely place so far from "home". We have to stop letting things like where we are from etc. divide us. Greif and struggle are human conditions, not relegated to any race or region.
Growing up we vacationed at Getty'sburgh , I watched the Dukes of Hazard and watched Hee Haw. "Dixie" didn't have the same effect as today. Dwight Yokam was/is fantastic. Loved this song, love Dixie in the spirit of my childhood. @@williammoore6953
@@williammoore6953THANK YOU for saying that so beautifully ♥
One of the FEW today that reminds me of the old school music of my roots! Don't know who will see this old mans post, but I just gotta say thanks for tradition.
Brian Gupton I see it !!! That is one of the reasons I love Dwight. You hit the nail on the head. He has that rich voice that sounds so traditionally country. xoxo
The TWANG of the past makes be think if being a barefoot kid fishing and going to the stockshow in Denver.
Bet you like George jones too!
I grew up hearing that music. My parents were not big TV watchers, and the radio was always on. I grew up to love a huge and wide variety of music, but that old country just feels like home.
And the record player. Or should I say Hi Fi. Ray Price and Hank Senior
This is a great song and the AMERICAN PEOPLE need to listen to each word of his song. My MISS ANNIE was from VIRGINIA , ALL my grandparents are from DENMARK 🇩🇰 went thru ELLAS ISLAND to become US CITIZENS settled in IOWA became farmers. My parents took us to CALIFORNIA AND THEN WASHINGTON. What I am trying to say is now i am 67 live in the south. We are AMERICAN CITIZENS FIRST AND JUST LIVE IN DIFFERENT PARTS OF THIS GREAT 👍 COUNTRY. No one should not walk by any human being and not do something. Just be greatful your not the one laying there.
In the south, nobody would just walk on by, that's the point. California is no good for a southern man. It kills your soul, because so few here have one of their own. California won't take mine. I won't let them. Instead I've doubled down on my culture, food, and manners. I am going to teach these poor souls a better way, a decent way, a SOUTHERN way.
Great statement. Take a listen to John Prine's song, Some Humans ain't Human. Same sentiment. Could be any of us or our family laying on a sidewalk. Compassion can change lives❤
@@sid2112Living by example is so important in today's world. It speaks volumes. Good for you. So many walk by others tears. Even a smile and kind word of encouragement can restore the soul of someone suffering. The good Samaritan ❤❤
This is an incredible song sung by an incredible voice. I have always loved this song.
Hello how are you doing today….?
This song reminds me about my wife. It was her favorite song before she lost the battling to cancer, I wish I could change the hands of time, I miss her smiles, she was always there for me and our lovely daughter, and I never miss a moment with her, life could be so unfair most times, there is some pain, I will cry in vain but won’t let you know how I will feel yes, I will miss you to the core! but some times i wonder why bad thing always happen to good people. She’s always in our heart.
@@AndyArnold-uz5yo My deepest condolence my friend. I tear up to this song for my brother who died from leukemia two years ago. I miss him everyday too, Just like you he is always in my heart.
Oh there so sorry about your brother and thank you for your kind words… what’s your favorite Dwright Yoakam music?
@@AndyArnold-uz5yo I like most of his old stuff. I don't really listen to any main stream radio any more as most of it isn't country. I listen to older songs such as Dixie. Thanks for your thoughts about my brother. I miss him every day. I look at his photo on my desktop every night before bed and tell him I love him and miss him so very much. Our family is really close so every tear is filled with love.
It's from the heart ❤️👍 and were all Americans and I cry for the families past and present!
One of the most moving, touching songs outside of gospel music that I e ever heard. I just keep listening to it over and over. Ole Tennesseean here. Forget la and come back home Dwight.
North Georgian here, we share the same mountains and probably the same shine, hehehe. Please look south and tell Georgia that her wayward son in California misses her terribly.

Great review 👍. I am a Kentucky feller. maybe we could share some Jack and Jim someday. And talk about the greats of Country Music. Johnny, Buck,Hank,HankJR, Mearl,etc,etc. God bless and keep you and your family.
I love Eastern Tennessee and lived there for a spell. I left a piece of my heart there.

If this doesn't bring a tear to your eye, you don't have a heart. I particularly like Dwight's comment about what inspired him to write it. He is a great artist!
Love it!! Love the South and DIXIE ❣️
Absolutely ❤these guys. I hate when our best go away I don't know about anybody else but I'd love to keep them forever!💙💙
Dwight Yoakam is one of my all time favorites. His songs have so much meaning to me. Especially this song.
I'm southern un apologict and proud a shame that media has made it bad great song
This song touches me deeply as Dwight is willing to reveal that he has empathy, love and a beautiful heart 💓. Dwight is REAL🕊️💝🕊️💗

Dixie. The real america. God Bless Dixie
his voice is so incredible. Who needs backup music or singers when you sound so perfect?! Love his music.
Thanks to Dwight this song is so powerful, no one else could have wrote it and no one could have sung it like him.
It don't get any better than that. This man is the greatest singer in country music to day and yesterday.
The joy on Buck's face and in his eyes is incredible. Wish I had been there. What a moment in time.
His voice blends with the guitar better than most !
He is very good even in 2022
The thing that I really like about his music is, how easily he makes it look. His guitar playing is so solid. He picks each of the notes in perfect time. And he has an extremely soulful southern voice. Like a lot of the other comments, I've liked his voice from the very first note. And who don't like his style?
great singer
beatlemania54 And just think he wasn't even born in the South...love Dwight.
beatlemania
He was born in Kentucky
beatlemania54 i can pick a booger like that. Ha ha hahaha. I love Dwight youkam
Out of all of the country music artists that have come and gone, Dwight Yoakam has always been my favorite. I remember the first time I saw him years and years ago, I said to myself "this guy is the real deal."
This is the best song Dwight ever recorded. Just beautiful and such a wonderful singing voice❤️❤️❤️
Never has been such an unique ,great voice been given to such a talented outstanding song writer.
Most of the time the true genius song writers can't carry a tune in a bucket. And if fame finds them, its on the brilliance of their writing alone.
I love that I was born/very little when Dwight's rise began. Guitars cars catallic
Guitars, Cadillacs and hillbilly music 🎵🎶
This is real music...no band...no background singers.
Funny story.
Pulled into an old gas station in rural northern Alabama to fill up. Year was mid 1980's if I remember correctly. An old gentleman, the owner, was sitting on a tree stump out in front of the station leaning against the service station's window listening to a loud local country radio station. Just as I pulled in "I Sang Dixie" came on the radio.
Old man looks at me and say's "Who siiiings dis soooong"
"It's such a purdy soooong"
"I Love dis purdy sooooong"
I reply. " Yes Sir, it is, it's Dwight Yoakum singing"
Again "It's such a purdy sooooong . Have a nice day, thank you"
Not much said, probably lasted less than 5 minutes, but I remember it after all these years because of the feeling and the emotion that old man expressed.
I could tell that the old gentleman was touch deeply. Not many songs do that to a person. Not many songs do you remember where you were when you heard it. That's why I remember it.
Western Sky: Very few songs touch me like it does. Mostly memorial songs but some patriotic and some gospel.
You're wrong about not many songs doing that to a person. Many if not most people are touched by music and we're touched by different music. You Tube is the touchstone to music that touches people of all stripes. As the saying goes - different strokes for different folks.
Yall got a arby's
That's a cool story
Has seen him concert four times so underrated so not appreciated I've been listening to him for damn near forty years nobody else like him. He doesn't sound like anybody else!!😊
It took me awhile to realize just how talented Dwight Yoakam really is. He is truly one of the greats
Still havnt had the chance to see this guy. One of best country songs. Right there with he stopped loving her today,blue eyes crying in the rain and cheatin heart. Country songs use to be story songs based on real events of a person. Not based on rap like today.
Can NOT get enough of Dwight Yoakam! He deliver's this tune so well it puts chills all over me.
Wonder why ?
***** I usually will not respond to nonsense but I am thinking ur comment MAY be lost in translation. To answer ur question... LISTEN TO THE LYRICS.. THE LYRICS! Get it?
Got it.
***** GOOOD!!!!

MAN I LOVE THIS SONG AND YOU CAN TAKE MY FLAG FROM ME BUT YOU CAN'T TAKE IT FROM OUR HEARTS!! SOUTHREN BY THE GRACE OF GOD!!!
Southern by the grace of God amen

I Agree my Southern Brother.
I grew up watching Hee Haw and was a huge Buck Owens fan. I love seeing him and Dwight together. True friendship.
So beautiful. Yes Buck, lyrics so bittersweet. Two musical geniuses on stage ! I inherited all my Daddy's country records, many of them of Buck Owens & The Buckaroos. RIP Daddy, Mama, Sis Irene Doris, Buck & now Roy. Dwight misses you dearly Buck. Marty misses you, Roy. Oh, my Uncle Darryl (RIP) had a paper route with Buck as a kid a long, long time ago. God willing I will be joining all of y'all in heaven. For now, on earth I'll continue to enjoy y'alls music, Hee Haw & Dwight's & Marty's concerts. Last saw Dwight in Hopewell, Virginia @ The Beacon Feb 7, 2018. A night I will never forget. Wasn't able to see Marty this time. Hope y'all come back & see us in Virginia soon !

Dublin, Ireland. 🇮🇪Greetings all you, Real Country, music fans.
Born and bread in the south and I'll die and be buried here in the south. God bless our great southern states.
Hey I heard that and Agree with You 100%.
It's spelled "bred". Not like the food.
Nothing like an authentic traditional country musician. I LOVE DWIGHT!
The best voice in the history of country music.
+Olivia Hardin You are so right!!!
+Olivia Hardin hes good but hank sr is the best
+Olivia Hardin
opinions are like elbows everybody has two. there's a hell of a lot of good voices out there and it's hard to say one is better than the other.
Top 5 anyway. Dwight is my favorite for "classic country" Del Mccoury for Bluegrass. etc..
it's hard to pick a good voice. some people like johnny cash, some like kris kristofferson, and heaven help us bob dylan. we pick our singers by what the songs mean to us sometimes. good voices are chosen by people often not because the singers sing better than others but by what the songs mean to us.
I saw him in concert once when he had just started, truly a blessing.
Hello how are you doing..?
This song reminds me about my wife. It was her favorite song before she lost the battling to cancer, I wish I could change the hands of time, I miss her smiles, she was always there for me and our lovely daughter, and I never miss a moment with her, life could be so unfair most times, there is some pain, I will cry in vain but won’t let you know how I will feel yes, I will miss you to the core! but some times i wonder why bad thing always happen to good people. She’s always in our heart.
I am from Canada and loved Dwight Yoakam's songs right from the get go!!! But this one gets to me every time. I feel Dwights pain as he sings it!! It is sad there is so much fighting and protesting of different things right now. I never would have thought how a virus would change the course of our world!!!

Dwight could sing the phone book and I'd listen (and watch!) all day on repeat and never get bored :-)
Dwight is an awesome singer, songwriter and musician!
Kathy Green Totally Agree with you big time :) ...
yessss
Yes. Let's not mention his acting career, it's not even worth it, his singing career is a million times better.
Your observations are astute.
Fuck you. His acting was pretty good, and I'm a tough critic.
Seeing Buck a tear rolled down my cheek. That caliber of a man is hard to find. I sure miss him
Never sell Dwight short. A monster talent and legend in country music.
One of the last true COUNTRY singers. Not this pop crap country of today.
I agree... I do not listen to the MAJORITY of what they call country now because it is not.
I agree. I never get tired of listening to Dwight.
Marcus, you hit the nail right on the head. Dwight is a true country artist....great vocalist and musician! And as Trina says, what passes as country is mediocre watered down pop country.
Richard Cunnane Richard I won't listen to it.. A joke...
Dwight is Country Pop to me. I like true Country Music. Like...Hank, Willie, Haggard, Jones, Frizzell, Felts, Wynette, Lynn.
POWERFUL................DWIGHT HAS A GREAT COUNTRY SOUND!!!!!!!!!
Goodbye, Dwight, I enjoyed you while you were with us. Dude, I got to see you once, man. Those ladies loved you! R.I.P.
He is still very much ALIVE, Darlin'!
This song is a great song for all us true patriot southerners. Sing it Dwight.!
I had to hear this beautiful, sad song once more before the cancel-mob has it deleted.❤
She means what she said
Meeee toooo! 😢 And I am sharing it with all I can. ❤️
Or the cancel mob gets cancelled.
Pitiful world, isn't it?
