I have NO idea but I used to ADORE this song when I was a kid. We had a Husky and I sang it to him. hehe.

Dwight Yoakum has done a really wonderful cover of this song on his CD, approprietly titled, UNDER THE COVERS, on which he covers some of his favorite tunes. He does wonderful renditions of the following:

Good Time Charlie's Got The Blues
Here Comes The Night
Train In Vain
Baby Don't Go (with Sheryl Crowe)
Witchita Lineman
Playboy (The buck Owens tune)
The Last Time (stones)

and a bunch more
