My cousin wrote this song and I have the original lyrics on the paper it was written on. I also have his keyboard that he played when he played for Mel. RIP to Mel and Ronnie…
This is what you call country music what we have to have today is not. The country music of yesterday was a lot better than today's. Mel Tillis is a great singer
As a younger generation raised on this i love all the classics of yesterday. Its sad to know that alot of the older ones are gone. Truely love this kind of music
We only have ourselves to blame that this kind of music is gone. The record companies dont care about quality, they only care about money and we didnt buy enough records. I used to work for them and thats the only reason country music died.
I was born and raised here in Nashville. You are exactly right, my friend. Quality over quality. Lawyers and execs have done shy of destroying what used to be country music. Thank God for George Strait and Alan Jackson.
Me and buddy back in the 80s would put this cassette on as we were hitting 7.8.9 different beer joints-bars in and around Arlington,Texas..back in the day..and shamefully been there..done that..I was a fool..
I think this song means . She was lying there when I left . It was easier to leave . Than to tell her what was really going on . She knew too well . When she woke up . What Did I Promise Her Last Night
When songs made sense and reflected our lives instead of this crap they play today and lie about it being country lol. It’s not good in any genre. Fortunately even the younger generation are screaming for better.

His song "Woman in the back of my mind" always takes me back.
Real Country! Who’s still listening to Mel in 2022?
August 2022/ started in the 70's
I'm the guy that listens to this great class. Thanks for asking..
2024 right here
Grew up on and STILL listen. Been waiting to see who’s gonna start filling shoes. So far we got nothing close.
2024 and I’m here
A classic song sang by a class act
Great song😊

Mel Tillis is a great singer
Very nice.
I listen to CDs only in order to hear my old time real country music. 💙💙 The new country music is harder for me to relate to.
It all started to with too much digital sound.
My father used to sing this. Over60 years in the music business
SEND ME DOWN TO TUCSON IS GREAT TO😊

The good old days of mell
GREAT SONG ❤
I like to imagine this is the other perspective from Captain and Tennille's "Gentle Stranger."
Such a sad song. I hope the woman in the song eventually does find a kind and caring man who loves her with all his heart.
❤ GREAT SONG 😊
GOOG MUSIC TO DANCE TO😊
Greatest Songs of yesterday was the best

We've all made those promises. And then snuck out the door never to return. Mel tells it like it was.
Unfortunately. All too often, We Ourselves become the Victim when it's Reciprocated by Someone Else........

I think this song means . She was lying there when I left . It was easier to leave . Than to tell her what was really going on . She knew too well . When she woke up . What Did I Promise Her Last Night
Best song ever Dad & myself were the best ❣️
Been there done that, I still wish I could see Vicky again. Vicky I lost ur ph number, thus the loss.
Only Billy Parker's version (the original version) can top Melvin's version.
Music of today is not as good as the music of yesterday
