    Only one person in the world could cover this & do it justice, & his name was Daryle Singletary, & now he’s gone too…

      Amen!! Daryle Singletary is the only other artist that does this beautiful song justice:

      100% agree! He did a beautiful job of it, definitely worth doing a separate reaction to

    Paycheck is one of the often overlooked masters of the genre!

    This is essentially Johnny Paycheck writing his own eulogy song. It's from the end of his career and may be the greatest song he ever wrote.
    As far as his career, he went to prison for shooting someone (thankfully non-lethally), so he was literally put away, although he did often say that going to prison probably saved his life. He was a wild one. If you want more info, check out Tales from the Tour Bus episode 1 about him and his career.

    He wrote this song when he faced going to prison after a bar room shooting in 1985

    Johnny Paycheck did it originally, but as good as it is, you need to check out Daryl Singletary’s remake of it… and Johnny Paycheck did the exertatjon for it and it was the very last thing Johnny ever did with music before he passed…

    George Jones paid for his funeral. Paycheck was broke when he passed. Great singer....

    I've known those feelings many times in my life and somehow made it through. My wife of 30 years passed away 5 years ago and I went in the hospital 3 months later and lost my home at the same time. But 7 months ago a girl I dated in highschool 50 years ago called me and we're a couple now and life is good. So don't hang up just keep going and something good will come your way. It did for me

    Whow, my Daddy really liked this 🎵 song. So do I ❤❤
    I have a picture of an Old 🎻 Violin hanging in my bedroom I'm going to bring it into the den Daddys has gone to Heaven now, but I'll see Daddy again... The song makes me think of him so much.
    I was a teenager OK jailbait for those who that means is you are means under age 😮😊
    and I saw him in Panama City Beach playing at the beach party restaurant and pub who is absolutely fabulous nobody can mimic Johnny Paycheck singing... Thank you for sharing
    You explained everything very well thank you again❤
    Rest in peace Johnny Paycheck 🙏🙏🙏🙏
    Thank you for the very descriptive and cool things that you said. Thank you❤😊

    This has always been a favorite Johnny Paycheck song and there is a live version that he performed near the end of his life and that makes it even more powerful.

    It is such a beautiful song but the last of it sings Precious Memories how they linger
    Please listen to that part it's the best part of the whole song thank you ma'am

    This is one of the best songs ever written. I think a lot of people can relate to it. You should play your flute, don’t let your passion just sit there. Love your breakdown of the lyrics.

    Johnny lived a rough life . He was in prison at some point . He was in a nursing home when he died and didn’t even have the money for his funeral. George Jones paid for his funeral ❤

    I think you will like this poem:
    The Touch of the Master's Hand
    'Twas battered and scarred, and the auctioneer
    Thought it scarcely worth his while
    To waste much time on the old violin,
    But held it up with a smile.
    "What am I bidden, good folks," he cried,
    "Who'll start the bidding for me?"
    "A dollar, a dollar. Then two! Only two?
    Two dollars, and who'll make it three?"
    "Three dollars, once; three dollars, twice;
    Going for three…" But no,
    From the room, far back, a grey-haired man
    Came forward and picked up the bow;
    Then wiping the dust from the old violin,
    And tightening the loosened strings,
    He played a melody pure and sweet,
    As a caroling angel sings.
    The music ceased, and the auctioneer,
    With a voice that was quiet and low,
    Said: "What am I bid for the old violin?"
    And he held it up with the bow.
    "A thousand dollars, and who'll make it two?
    Two thousand! And who'll make it three?
    Three thousand, once; three thousand, twice,
    And going and gone," said he.
    The people cheered, but some of them cried,
    "We do not quite understand.
    What changed its worth?" Swift came the reply:
    "The touch of the Master's hand."
    And many a man with life out of tune,
    And battered and scarred with sin,
    Is auctioned cheap to the thoughtless crowd
    Much like the old violin.
    A "mess of pottage," a glass of wine,
    A game - and he travels on.
    He is "going" once, and "going" twice,
    He's "going" and almost "gone."
    But the Master comes, and the foolish crowd
    Never can quite understand
    The worth of a soul and the change that is wrought
    By the touch of the Master's hand.

    This song makes me tear up every time that I hear it. I had an uncle who had a stroke and it caused him to not be able to work anymore and on top of that a couple of years later he had to have a leg amputated. He said that this was his favorite song because it reminded it of himself. A beautiful song but also sad in a way

    I heard he wrote it either he was waiting to be sentence to prison or he was already in prison waiting on his pardon that George Jones and other singers rally to him get
