  • William Lee Golden's solo video from 1990 on Mercury/Polygram Records. This video was the number one video on CMT for two weeks in 1990. This song was recently re-recorded by The Oak Ridge Boys (with Golden on lead) on their 2011 Cracker Barrel exclusive release, "It's Only Natural."
    Later rerecorded on "My Life's Work."

    Now I'll tell ya what... this is what ya call true Country Music! Dadgumnit.. I don't hardly even turn on the raydyo anymore because of all that mess they play now. Once a week, Me, Peggy, Bobby, and Lou Ann invite Bill over and we sit around the old stereo, and play some real country music on Albums. Boy Howdy, now that William Lee Golden feller , when you think of The Oak Ridge Boys... well you just have to think of ole Bill Golden and that long beard. Ya know, that's his trademark. You see.. here in Arlen, Texas we love Bill Golden and that beard. God Bless Texas.. God Bless America.. and God Bless The Dallas Cowboys !! RIP Tom Landry.

    Bill Golden.. The Pride of Brewton, Alabama. This Song should have been a number 1 Country hit. What a great Video. The Video was filmed in, and around Brewton and Dixonville, Alabama. I remember when the crew came to Town and filmed it. Great Memories. Thanks Kyle Boreing for sharing.

    William Lee did NOT beg the Oaks to take him back. He was asked to rejoin when the Oaks let Steve Sanders, his replacement, go. Steve had some serious problems at home and otherwise and committed suicide not long after. I lived in Nashville for about 3 years playing music and I have been to William Lee's house. He did not live in a teepee but had one on his property that he would use for native American ceremonies. Trust me. He didn't need the Oaks. They needed him. Of the four, he had been there the longest and wasn't hurting for money.

    We have BLACK dirt roads in MN where I grew up. This song hits me where I live because the dirt road was a favorite spot for me as a boy in the 60-70’s.

    Wow... What a great song. I remember this video. I wish the song would have gotten more attention back then. William Lee Golden has always been such a great Singer. He puts a lot of true emotion into his songs. He's also a great Painter also. I've seen some of his Art pieces. Just Beautiful.

    It's a damn shame that William Lee Golden didn't get more recognition as a solo artist. I've always thought he has the best voice of all the Oak Ridge Boys.

    Yesterdays songs were of everyday life of THEN. You are looking in the wrong place if you think all the good songs/singers are gone...You are just missing what you remember and grew up with.

    My dad was in the 18 wheeler when the video shows the Brewton sign as we call it William Lee is a local hero here

    I really miss the smell of the red dirt clay in Gainesville Georgia I sure do I don't live there anymore and I really miss it...... I felt like a newborn baby cradled up in the arms of the Lord every time I was there.....
