First, recognition to Tim Covey for inspiring my effort. I couldn't hold a note like the original tune, and The Lone Milkman's video from July gave me an in on the song I've always liked. Thanks Tim for sharing your cover and I hope I didn't rip you off too badly.

Guitar is 4 strings with a double course on the melody string. Tuning is A flat or G#. Whatever it takes.

Well done ED.  Keep on singing, and bonus points for the t-shirt. Love the main lick.

The first time I ever heard that song, it was sung by Tennesse Ernie Ford. Yes, I'm getting old, lol. Enjoyed it

Nice job, man!   You got those licks down super well.  Pretty well sung too.   That git with the double course sounds really nice.
