My daddy loved this song and I made sure we played it at his celebration of life. Wasn't a dry eye in the church. I know that he is up there with Mama in the best of hands ever!
My daddy always played this on his guitar and sang it. I always teared up because I knew his days were coming to an end. His best friend played this at his funeral and this song couldn't be more true. He may be gone physically but his soul lives on forever.
This song moved me today. I was thinking of my son as I drove home and thought “ he needs to learn to play this” when I got home, he was already trying to learn it because he heard it last night. It was like the Lord said “ I have something for you two”
Lost Jerry Jeff last week now another one my heros has crossed the river. God bless you Billy Joe. Rest in peace and thank you for helping me through the good and bad times love ya man.
Billy recently rehearsed at a place I work at in Austin & I must say he was was one of the most humble musicians I’ve ever worked with. He came and approached me and just started shooting the shit even though he had no reason to. We talked about all sorts of things from how Austin has changed so much to morphine to families 😂 He gave me all his records without me even asking and was just so nice. Modern musicians and people in general could learn a lot from this man.
Daniel, I was fortunate to do a few albums with Billy Joe and become friends 'forever,' you are exactly right! Humble, wonderful song writing Master. If you'd like to hear what I think about him, check out "The Man From Down Near Waco" by Tommy Talton, here's to you, Billy Joe!
That was so awesome that you got to bullshit with this great man!!! Indeed he seem so so humble!!! I would have loved to meet this guy!! Maybe someday across that river!!!
Billy Joe is the greatest songwriter alive today. He has been to hell and back several times and each time has emerged a better songwriter and musician. We played this at my wife's funeral and I want it played at mine. He truly will live forever.
I was just thinking about BillyJoe twice today Once this morning watching a Willie Nelson video And then about 10 minutes ago I flipped this phone on and RUclips suggested I should watch a Waylon video of him solo singing Waymore's Blues with Miss Jessi sitting next to him on that show he had way back in the day!! Well BillyJoe crossed my mind again cause then I just had this Video cone on and there is the man himself!! Well Mr Billy Joe Shaver I hope you do live for ever ,,I can never just walk away from a song on the radio or on the RUclips! Him and Willie played in Lawrenceburg Indiana probably 10 years ago And wasn't walking away from him performing that night . or Willie. I got to the front row and never left until them Texans hit the Stagecoaches and just disappeared into the night. I seen them both before at Willie's Place the truck stop south of Dallas cause I would stop there twice a week on my weekly Indiana to Laredo turnaround After that Petro Truck Stop bought that place and tore the place up I never stopped there again, I'm gonna live forever
My Indian self was here to listen to some country American tunes from across the seas for a while and close my eyes in blissful escapism. Imagine my surprise when I heard those tabla drums. Lol RIP Shaver❤
ONE OF THE GREATEST ACTS IN THE BUSINESS BAR NONE. EDDIE WAS A GUITAR PICKER WITH A STYLE THAT MADE YOU FEEL HIS FEELINGS. GOD BLESS THEM BOTH IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST
I’m a country music fan. But I’m gonna be honest with everyone. I’ve never heard of mr. shaver till I found the series called.. tales from the tour bus .. on you tube. Awesome show!
Cant believe I just discovered this man, damn, where the hell was I in 2009? How did i miss this? What was i doin that was so important, i didnt even ever hear of this man, his music and his heart. Just dont seem possible. RIP.

They played this at my cousins funeral Friday 1 of his favorite songs 64 years young we lost a beautiful soul 😢❤
There are those unique individuals like Billy Joe, Guy Clark, Elvis, Loretta Lynn, too many to list. I fear those days are gone.
My Indian self was here to listen to some country American tunes from across the seas for a while and close my eyes in blissful escapism. Imagine my surprise when I heard those tabla drums. Lol RIP Shaver❤
