R.I.P Joe Thanks for the years of wonderful music
RIP Joe You and Alabama were the two bands that introduced me to country music. A part of my childhood died today!
This song makes me want to go boating, swimming, kayaking and tubing all in a day!
Deepest condolences fro Canada to Joe Bonsalls family and friends. He is singing for The Lord now. 🇨🇦❤️🇺🇸🙏✝️🕊
Your music will live on forever Joe. Thank you for downloading and the memories.
R.I.P. Joe,thank you for all the years of great music, you will be missed 😢
RIP Joe Bonsall. Thanks for the music.
Steve Sanders was so talented. I hope he's at peace now.
Rip Joe you will be so missed thx for the great music 😢
It's been 35 years since this came out! July 2028 will be the 40th anniversary. When we get there, we need to re-do this music video using smart phones so the world can see how technology progressed! Until then, please do not let these good times die.
R.I.P. Joe Bonsall who passed away yesterday
RIP Joe
Country music will never be good as this ever again.. Thanks for the music 🎶 🎵 though the years
Grew up listening to them. Can’t believe they’re in their 70’s & 80’s now!
Kids today will never understand what a rare treat it was when someone showed up to a party with a camcorder.
Or an Accordion!
We didn't go overboard with using them either. Nor did we try to "dox" people.
This is just a fun song
@@user-ty6do8yz4lIt's called a zydeco not an accordion.
It was a blessing for me to play and be on this video..Dewey(The Sultan of Sax)
Hey! If you are still here, I have just one favor to ask of you. Can you tell me everything about Steve that you are allowed to share? Thank you so much in advance.
God bless you always!!!

Dewey, wonderful music. Thank you so much!
My reference material for the proper pronunciation of the Monongahela River.
It's not the music (well not JUST the music) it's the memories of an era of happiness and celebration that simply doesn't exist anymore. And, I don't even like country. But, that vile soul-less crap out now, makes you a fan of this music.
What a 👍 song--too bad Steve Sanders isn't with us anymore. I've been seeing these guys in concert since the 1980's, and they haven't lost one little bit of their energy or their talent! Go Oak Ridge Boys!!!
In my opinion, as long as Steve's material is played, we keep the late beautiful precious here as much as a person in his position can be kept around still. By the way, its been 20 years now since his going forward, if only I had discovered him sooner, I love him SO much!!! (burying my head)
God bless you and his family always!!!
Holly in East Tennessee
I used to watch Steve Sanders on the Gospel Singing Jubilee back when I was 4 or 5 years old. It truly hurt me deeply when he left us! He was so talented!
A great tune by The Oakridge Boys. One to guarantee to get you up dancing and having fun.
God Bless you Boys for all the music you've given us for 50+ years. Love and Prayers from Canada 🇨🇦❤️🇺🇸🙏
Great musical talent but that video blows.
Released in June 1988.... I remember that month like it was yesterday. There was no Spike Tv. It was called TNN The Nashville Network, and they played this video on there and also on CMT Country Music Television.
SO???????????
@@pattyajones they were better channels. The newer ones are all alike.
Reminds me of trips to the lake
I WAS 7 YRS OLD. AND WHEN THEY GOT ALABAMA N OAK RIDGE BOYS ON, IT WAS TIME FIR US KIDS "TO TAKE OUR ASS*S TO SLEEP". 😆😁
And WE all wanted a camera like hers!!! Now we have phones that take better videos hahahah
RIP, Joe, Thanks for your great music.
I found this video to be kind of hilarious. It's got good, funny music that could help cheer people up.
I grew up listening to the Oaks and can't imagine a life without their wholesome entertainment and music. Saw them in Lancaster, PA one week ago. They looked and sounded fantastic. The new guy is doing a great job that is in Joe Bonsall's spot - wishing the guys and the band much love, health, and success!
A #1 hit for The Oak Ridge Boys on the Country & Western charts. It was the 926th #1 C&W song of the Rock Era. My beloved mother saw them several years back at the Newberry (SC) Opera House.
I haven't heard this song in years! Somehow I woke up this morning and this song popped in my head. 😁😁
It’s rare to see a video without William lee golden. Like this video has the guy who took his place for a short period. I personally am glad to see William lee golden back with the oak ridge boys
Yeah, a short period of 8 years.
The guy who took williams place killed himself when his wife left him
@@jameslamon116 sorry to hear that. Never a good answer.
@@jameslamon116Steve committed suicide because his ex wife kept giving him problems.
@kimolbrish4766 he was married to two girls at the sametime!
Steve could have fronted a lot of country bands..restless heart comes to mind
ACC's #23 song of '88. God bless y'all, Oaks! Have a blessed Easter! RIP, Steve Sanders.
Can you believe that its been 20 years now since Steve went forward, June 10th was the day, if only I had discovered him sooner, I love him SO much!!! (burying my head)
God bless you and his family always!!!
Holly in East Tennessee
I remember when I was about six years old and playing it on my record player it was the most greatest time to be in an 80s because my mom and dad, was there favorite entertainers. Now I know why they sing this song to me when i was a child! How awesomé, smart and kind they all are. That was the best time to grow up mama and papa were still here did they were happy andCarefree! Dad is 105, my mom is 103 in there blessed héavén with our creator!
I love this song. I love Richard Sterban. His smile is amazing. He makes me smile
I love it when he rattles the windows LOL
Ya know a smile
Never goes outta style.......
@@glenbeck5602 So brighten up the one that you wear...
(In my head I hear Duane singing your line though, yeah?)
My gosh, I've forgotten about these guys! Went to a concert Oak Ridge Concert when I lived in Salem, Oregon. I believe it was 1980... It was like spending the evening with friends!
Gold shades ✅ rca camcorder✅stonewashed jeans✅feathered mullet ✅the best of 88 is given proper respect right here.
And it’s all genuine, authentic, contemporary. The suspenders are killin’ me
I was able to see the Oakridge boys at treasure island in Welch, mn got to shake hands with Joe at that show just he always had such an energy gonna miss that voice
Over twenty years later and this one just sparkles like any modern country and gospel hit. Those ORBs just had something we haven't seen since.
Mike Wofsey. Sorry Mike new stuff sounds like excrement to me. It does to most real country music kovers!.
What modern country music? Modern country bands wouldn't know what real country is.
I.Love.Song.,,, Take ALot.of,River,,I, Love That..Song.. Love Frieda,. Chambers,,A.,Fan, of.Them💋💋👁️👁️😛😛👍👍
🪕🪕🪕👍👍👍💋💋💋
every decade of my life i have found new country music to love .
but i am glad i grew up with 70s and 80s music . country and rock .
I ain't gonna ride no rail or hitchhike down no highway
I ain't going nowhere feeling the way I do
Because my baby's long gone and nothings going my way
I'm gonna let this muddy water just wash away my blues.
Gonna take a lot of river,
To keep this broken heart afloat,
Gonna take a lot of river
Running all the live long days,
Gonna take the Mississippi, the Monongahela and the Ohio,
Gonna take a lot of river
To wash these blues away.
Well, I wish I was tug boat pushing and pulling them barges along
Moving on the water with a heart made of iron and steel
There wouldn't be no women that could ever take my loving and do me wrong
I could work all day with nothing in the world to feel.
Gonna take a lot of river
To keep this broken heart afloat
Gonna take a lot of river
Running all the live long days
Gonna take the Mississippi, the Monongahela and the Ohio
Gonna take a lot of river
To wash these blues away.
Is she in New Orleans
Is she a cajun queen
I wonder what she's doing now
But if I know her she's got rings and furs, struggling along somehow.
Gonna take a lot of river
To keep this broken heart afloat
Gonna take a lot of river
Running all the live long days
Gonna take the Mississippi, the Monongahela and the Ohio
Gonna take a lot of river
To wash these blues away.
Gonna take a lot of river
To keep this broken heart afloat
Gonna take a lot of river
Running all the live long days
Gonna take the Mississippi, the Monongahela and the Ohio
Gonna take a lot of river
To wash these blues away
Steinbergers and Casios all aglow - oh, what a fun nostalgic ‘80s trip!!! 😁😁😁
Still enjoy you Steve Sanders . . . you left many years ago, but have not been forgotten.
Its been 20 years now since his going, if only I had discovered him sooner, I love him SO much!!! (burying my head)
God bless you and his family always!!!

Can somebody tell me why SS took over for Bill Golden i n the late 80s?
@@kevinmiller1985 William Lee wanted to go solo and so when the ship was finally jumped, someone had to take his place.
God bless you always!!!
Holly in East Tennessee
@@SweetHeartHolly1982 in my opinion, Steve was the better singer.
@@bonniewells9208 I couldn't second this more. If only everything that was filmed of him was online to watch. I miss what used to be here so much.
God bless you always!!!
Holly in East Tennessee
RIP Joe Bonsall

R.I.P_ Joe Bonsall. Thanks for it all.
Love this song. Looks like they have fun.
Hello Nancy..
Great song to welcome summer with!
I wanna go on vacation and listen to this on the way there.
Steve Saunders was a great singer and he is sorely missed. RIP Steve.
Love the ORBs. Going to see them tonight in P'burg, Ky at the Mtn Arts Center. Going to be an Awwwsome concert!!
No one misses him like I do and its because of how late I was in becoming a fan of him.
God bless you and those who have loved him longer than me always!!!
Holly in East Tennessee (age 6 when this song was released and forever wishing that I'd discovered him sooner)
P.S. His last name is Sanders, not Saunders.
RIP Joe. So sad to hear of his passing
that was back when music was good rca had the best camcorders back in the 80s
I pray so hard that the Lord let Steve pick up where ever his leaving off took place, I love him so much. (trying not to cry)
God bless you always!!!
Holly in East Tennessee
The Oak Ridge Boys … Country's last great band.
Oh what a fun little video and a fun song!! LOVE it all!!!!
First concert I ever saw. Love song sometimes it never hurts to hurt someetime
It was on this day 21 years ago (June 10th) that the late beautiful precious leader of this song went forward, I love him SO much!!!
God bless those who have loved him longer than me always!!!
Holly in East Tennessee (forever wishing still that I had discovered him sooner)
Yeah, he was my favorite in the band. When he left the Oak Ridge Boys, I was so sad because he was the main reason I loved them so much. When he passed, was one of the saddest days of my life. He was a great entertainer and born to be a performer.
good old songs! Yee haw. Love it! the oak boys were The first concert I went to see, way back in 1980
Hello Melanie
When I got out of the Navy in 88,a radio station had a contest where whoever could pronounce all the rivers mentioned won a prize.When I called in,they asked how I knew Monongahela and I told them it was because we'd refueled my ship from an oiler by that name and I had to mention the ships name during the "Smoking lamp is out topside while alongside USNS Monongahela"announcements.
Great country song, great instrumentation...I remember when it was a hit.
I love this song
Awesome song by a very awesome group with a very awesome band!! Thanks for sharing!!!
Beautiful song
Oh I REALLY like this one. I"ve not heard this before.
Oh my gosh unreal he was so good 👍

❤ Magnífica banda. I LOVE Bobbie Sue too.
I love the Oak Ridge Boys but i'm going in to shock seeing the way they were dressed for this video. Glad those styles are behind us all! HAHAHA! God bless The Oak Ridge Boys!
Lord y’all, I’m getting old...I was 7 years old and loving this song when it 1st came out lol and I still love it, slow down time!
#AmeisterAmericaINC🇺🇸
Amazing Bass
Nothing like an Oak Ridge Boys song.
George Vreeland Hill
What a fun song and video
I LOVE Joe & Richard!!!
I was never a big country fan, though somehow the 70s and 80s seemed a lot better than these days with just about everyone wrapping their music in the flag in some way.
Country to me, the white man's blues, should be about lost dogs, wives, trucks, trains , and whiskey bottles...
I was drawn to this song for no real reason other than it struck a chord with me and I love hearing it when I think of it!
There was one or two good songs when John Golden was gone, but this was one of em.
Love that song
Love it
Mighty oak band is great
I just love the feel of this song.
Love this song
great song by the boys.......
I was working on a tug boat when this song came out,it became the official song of of the TB Doris McKenney ,Baton Rouge
Charles sent me this wow absolutely amazing
I love the song takes me back when i lived at home with my parents.
I bet they had fun making that video
it sure looked fun :)
awesome video love the song
Loveto hear that deep voice singing.
Oakridge boys will always be in my files of wonderful memories and music 🎶🎵
Can you believe that its been 20 years now since Steve went forward, June 10th was the day, if only I had discovered him sooner, I love him SO much!!! (burying my head)
God bless you and his family always!!!

RIP Steve Sanders...
His beautiful and precious voice will continue to be played as long as I am still around, I love him SO much!!!
God bless you and those who have loved him longer than me always!!!
Holly in East Tennessee (forever wishing still that I had discovered him sooner)
I absolutely love this song
RIP Steve.
My guess, everyone had a good time filming this. I need me some Cajun food.
And kids,THAT was a compact video camera in 1988.
cost thousands too!
Poor Joe. A dunking he didn 't expect OR want. I had to la ugh when I saw him tossed overboard. Hope he can swi m?
The good old days
Or at least hundreds.
The chick must have known something,the way that she grabbed the camera just before he got pitched overboard.
Really a good video and a great song sad to see Steve Sanders knowing what his ultimate fate would be. I actually saw him on an episode of gunsmoke the other day he was quite a talented guy RIP
Rest in peace Joe Bonsall and Steve Saunders (who’s singing lead in this video, replacing William Lee Golden in the group for approximately 10 years, until Richard, Joe and Duane patched things up with William Lee).
Like this song
God's speed Joe 😢
Joe Bonsall will be missed
A very cool 😎 video.
RIP Joe Bonsall
