Yeah Elmer, that's a great song--and I play it a lot--love the western swing approach--and of course the lyrics. That guy is a real role model. Never could live up to that. My great-grandfather did a passable imitatation. He was an artist--specialized in nudes and melancholy landscapes. And--you guessed it--had 2 separate families--one with his favorite model. Soon after his death-- in Italy, in murky circumstances-- the model and her daughter turned up on the wife's doorstep.

That's a hard act to follow.
