I lived in NYC my girlfriend lived in California - this was one of her favorite songs - when she went back home we sang this song at JFK airport - tears were in our eyes
This was my daddy's favorite song we sang it in the car all the time he was career Army and flew away alot . Hes in heaven now just like Merle and I hope they sing this song together to entertain God .
Love me some Merle. Ever since I was a youngster I've admired his talent. Had the good fortune to see him once in Lancaster, Texas. Little place call " Borrowed Money's Crystal Chandolier " When I say little I do mean little. Place had not even a stage. Let alone a drum riser. The band set up over in one corner. Tables were cleared except for a few around the perimeter. The main floor area was for dancing. And there were lots of folks dancing. No seating to speak of. If you wanted to sit you sat on the floor. Which I did. Right in front of the band. I couldn't have been more than 14 feet from Merle. I have been to plenty of concerts in my time. But seeing merle in Lancaster Texas in that small venue in 1979 was THE VERY BEST !!
My Daddy's Favorite too I lost My Daddy too to Covid Last Year! He was 73 He played guitar and sang Merle was his favorite and this song was his favorite!!!! I think the same thing hoping they could sing together in paradise May Your Dad REST IN PEACE!!!!!
l agree with you, indeed Merle Haggard is a great and talented artist who's songs never goes out of style,he's one of my favorites artist, he songs still and always heals the Soul, I pray God gives you lot of beautiful days!
I remember him from before he worked himself into Willie’s band. He was backing up a friend in Dallas who played the guitar and sang. I never met Mickey but we nodded heads a few times when I was heading in and he was heading out a place where I drank beer 45-50 years ago.
That’s what happens when you put on Merle, you get Merle. Damn that’s good. And the boys in the band just take him away, leavin’ me lonely. Whew, let me catch my breath!
This song came out the year my new to me Husband left for the Army back in 1970! Went to Viet Nam! Never the same 19 year old who left for training! This song became special as I put him on that plane to go to Viet Nam! God Bless all who served over there!
How I wish Merle were still here to entertain us all with his songs,but I like to believe he is here somewhere,listening and joining in,singing in that incomparable way he had,entertaining those who have gone to join him in "Country Land".
For some reason my cat loved this song I would play it or sing to her she perked up.. I miss her she was eighteen. Then the next year my mom died. It's a good song but sad at the same.
Im strictly a heavy metal,classic and hard rock guy, but there is only 1 country music artist,and style that I ABSOLUTELY LOVE....ONLY MERLE for some reason. One of a kind voice,brilliant story telling, and just reminds me of happier and simpler time when I was a kid hearing my dad listening to him.There's nobody that could ever compare to ....THE HAG! RIP Merle, you are missed.
Yes I was stationed at Patrick Space Command Florida with the Space Cadets flying the T-38 Amen 1977 after the Apolo program after that was the Shuttle program?
I remember this song from when I was a young fulla right up to today. I loved it so much. Thank you for this song. Thank you for the singers of this song. Layton.
I once had someone mess w my mind and heart...tricked me into falling in love...then suddenly flew states away....to go reunite with married spouse, unknown to me. This song tore my heart out. Fortunately, i was able to heal and did not commit suicide.

Silver wings Shining in the sunlight Roaring engines Headed somewhere in flight They're taking you away And leaving me lonely Silver wings Slowly fading out of sight Don't leave me, I cried Don't take that airplane ride But you locked me out of your mind And left me standing here behind Silver wings Shining in the sunlight Roaring engines Headed somewhere in flight They're taking you away And leaving me lonely Silver wings Slowly fading out of sight Silver wings Shining in the sunlight Roaring engines Headed somewhere in flight They're taking you away And leaving me lonely Silver wings Slowly fading out of sight Slowly fading out of sight

Isn't that the truth, miss Merle Haggard and Toby Keith.
Merl haggard was the number 1 singer in his day
I've watched this concert and outtakes so many times I've lost count. I think this was Merle at his absolute best!
♥️…I have also ..
Same here
How can get i this tape.
I have also and agree this was Merle being the best times of his career.
Gque musicao.
I will be playing Merle Haggard and his music forever and into eternity ❤️
And so will I 👍🤣🤣
So will I forever ❤️
Excelente amigo , realmente muito bom.
So that is what you are thinking about eternity? You need to find JESUS CHRIST.
Merle is the best country singer and song writer ever
There was nothing he sang that I did not like I have listen to him since the 1960
Hello there Vivian nice meeting you here
l agree with you, indeed Merle Haggard is a great and talented artist who's songs never goes out of style,he's one of my favorites artist, he songs still and always heals the Soul, I pray God gives you lot of beautiful days!
How can I possibly say this was his best, they all were !
Love You Hag, rest in heavenly peace Partner.
Here in 2024 one of my favorite songs from the one only Merle Haggard
Merle was the best of the best no one will ever fill his shoes ❤
I must have watched this video hundreds of times and it just gets better.
Yep
Can you give me the information to get the video
@@bryanmceuen5673 it's on RUclips.
The mighty Merle with a wonderful band on this sad love song that he wrote. Mickey Rafael with his mouth harp adds so much to it.
Mickey Rafael is the "icing on the cake".
I remember him from before he worked himself into Willie’s band. He was backing up a friend in Dallas who played the guitar and sang. I never met Mickey but we nodded heads a few times when I was heading in and he was heading out a place where I drank beer 45-50 years ago.
Oh! Yeah!
That’s what happens when you put on Merle, you get Merle. Damn that’s good. And the boys in the band just take him away, leavin’ me lonely. Whew, let me catch my breath!
They just don’t get any better than the great Merle Haggard!!!
❤❤❤
This song came out the year my new to me Husband left for the Army back in 1970! Went to Viet Nam! Never the same 19 year old who left for training! This song became special as I put him on that plane to go to Viet Nam! God Bless all who served over there!
wow .................. bless you...........................GIT IT MERLE....................G I T I T.
I love the original, but this version is so soulful, and smooth. Merles voice is so rich, that harmonica and that fiddle! PERFECTION.
Hello 👋 sandy how are you doing ,,
LOVE HIS ORIGINAL ON CD.BUT COULD LISTEN 2 HIS MUSIC @ ANY TIME.THNX.!!🌺⚘🌺
Merl was one of the best county singers to ever come down the pike and he still is as far as I am concerned rip hag ❤
How I wish Merle were still here to entertain us all with his songs,but I like to believe he is here somewhere,listening and joining in,singing in that incomparable way he had,entertaining those who have gone to join him in "Country Land".
Thank goodness we have recording technology so we can listen to him till we die.
AMEN
A country music genius wow.
Silver Wings & I Take A Lots Of Pride, Are My Favorites Of The #1 Hag,

For some reason my cat loved this song I would play it or sing to her she perked up.. I miss her she was eighteen. Then the next year my mom died. It's a good song but sad at the same.

awesome song
Silver wings
Shining in the sunlight
Roaring engines
Headed somewhere in flight
They're taking you away
And leaving me lonely
Silver wings
Slowly fading out of sight
Don't leave me, I cried
Don't take that airplane ride
But you locked me out of your mind
And left me standing here behind
Silver wings
Shining in the sunlight
Roaring engines
Headed somewhere in flight
They're taking you away
And leaving me lonely
Silver wings
Slowly fading out of sight
Silver wings
Shining in the sunlight
Roaring engines
Headed somewhere in flight
They're taking you away
And leaving me lonely
Silver wings
Slowly fading out of sight
Slowly fading out of sight
Спасибо.❤

Amei adoro esse estilo de música
"Eight track's playin' me Silver Wings
Like a razor's edge Merle Haggard sings
Earthbound ships on a four lane sea
Don't look like there's any sleep for me
Cause I ain't got time tonight
I ain't got time tonight
And if you want that flag to wave
Eighteen wheels'l roll
Eighteen wheels gonna roll road hugger
Them eighteen wheels'l roll"
And the wheels'l roll . . ."
