I was just about to post this. One of the true Honkeytonk Greats!

I'm listening to "when the grass grows over me" right now.

My favorite one of his songs, why baby why. I liked the Webb version better, but this is still great.

Also, Corrdell "Boogie" Mosson from Funkadelic died today.

He said "I'll love you till I die", she told him "You'll forget in time"

As the years went slowly by, she still preyed upon his mind

He kept her picture on his wall, went half-crazy now and then

He still loved her through it all, hoping she'd come back again

Kept some letters by his bed dated nineteen sixty-two

He had underlined in red every single "I love you"

I went to see him just today, oh but I didn't see no tears

All dressed up to go away, first time I'd seen him smile in years

He stopped loving her today

They placed a wreath upon his door

And soon they'll carry him away

He stopped loving her today

You know, she came to see him one last time,

Aww, 'n' we all wondered if she would

And it kept runnin' through my mind, this time he's over her for good

He stopped loving her today

They placed a wreath upon his door

And soon they'll carry him away

He stopped loving her today
