In Their Words: “Tony Mabe, our banjo player and old country buff, brought this song to my attention. It’s an old early ’60s Sonny Burns honky-tonk tune. The first time I heard it I said, ‘That would make a great bluegrass song!’ We worked it up to fit our style and I think it turned out to be a straight-ahead grass tune that fit us well. It’s like a brand new song that most have never heard. Hope everyone enjoys our version!” – Junior Sisk
