I am 18 years old and no one my age listens to music like this, I LOVE it it is ALL I listen to!! I love classic country music! Who else only listens to Classic Country like this????

This is a song that is pure country and so good. Gene Watson one of the best I ever listen to in my 72 years.

Country music like this is always about a real life situation and still rings home in today's times you find a woman make sure you can afford it especially if she has a 14 karat mind like most gold diggers

GOD I AM GETTING OLD I WAS FIVE YEARS OLD WHEN THIS SONG FIRST CAME OUT BUT I LOVE YESTERDAYS COUNTRY MUSIC IT IS WHAT I GREW UP WITH. TODAYS COUNTRY IS WAY FAR FROM WHAT COUNTRY SHOULD BE AS GENE WATSON HAS SHOWED US!

David Knight. I don't know ! He is a PURE Country singer. I saw him in Kentucky a few years ago and he still has it. The ones that can't sing their way out of a wet paper bag, gets All Kind of Awards and elected to the CMHOF. Another Great Country Singer is--Bobby Bare. Not many True Country Singers left. They have passed on.

This is real country music! Not the pop crap of today

You don't get music better than this.

FOR MY WV PEEP WHO ARE WITH US HERE IN WHY❗️ 💃🏽

Gene Watson is up there with the greats. I'm 73/retired...and listened to him when I was in mid-30's running construction crews in Houston. Played him on the job-site boom-box in the day. He helped us keep the pace. I love his life's work as a Country Singer. You Rock Gene!!!

Great song and the question back then as now was what has happened to Country Music. Hey Folks, it's still country and you just have to listen. Chris Young is a strong voice in the Industry with his "Black Dress" song. Lee Brice and Luke Bryan are also have very impressive voices. But, then again what do I know. Bill Monroe, Bob Wills, Hank Williams and Ray Price put me to sleep in my cradle. Today I just listen and enjoy the great sounds of Country Music.

He has a whole lot of country stars as fans. Now that's when you know your good.

Hargus"Pig"Robbins is 83 today.He never cut records but his piano playing was on about 1 million hits,including this one.The best story i heard about him,was told by Kenny Price,of Hee Haw fame,in a bar.He,a few other country musicians in Nashville, put Pig,who was blind,behind the wheel of a car,with one of them steering;while driving,they got pulled over and the cop wanted to see Pig's drivers license,and when he said he didn't have one the cop asked him why and he told him because he was blind.The cop let them go,after someone else got behind the wheel.Was there alcohol involved?Of course!!!Only in the 1960's.

I always wanted to see a movie about this song

Gene Watson should have been more popular than he was. Awesome singer!

This is REAL country music by a talented person. I can't listen to today's shit.

This song would get you a ticket out on the big road in the middle of the night when it came on.

I think Gene is one of the most underrated yet talented "real country" singers we had! He had some great tunes, "hurting head and a half of pint of wine"; been there done that!

@@sameoldthing4037 Maybe because there was a lot of cheating going on, just like today. Gene never hits a bad note. He doesn't get the recognition he deserves.

I remember this song playing on the speakers at Gilley's. Awesome country gold.

He had a lead guitarist named Danny Rainwater, who played in my Uncle’s band in high school back in the 60’s. He played lead on this song. Great to hear it again

Another example of good old classic country.

I saw him at the Buckboard in Marietta Georgia back in 97 for the first time and I fell in love with his music, and now I can't get enough of him.

Just heard this on Country Classics, and came here looking for it :)

Everything but my soul has surrendered just to satisfy your 14 karat mind. I love him u can't find music like this anymore

My grandpa wrote this song at a sawmill he worked at I am not telling a lie and I sware on my life

I love this song!!!❤

All the so-called country music singers of today (2020) should be forced to listen to people like Gene Watson/Waylon Jennings and Highway 101 ....... just to get a taste of real country music that will last for years instead of a couple of months.

I saw him last week better than ever

Damn that piano played on the lower keys sounds great.

That's Hargus 'Pig' Robbins, one of the mot legendary of the Nashville session players. That rolling piano style is PERFECT for this song. He plays some great stuff on Dave Dudley's 'George And The North Woods,' too. Once you learn to recognize his sound, you'll find find him on HUNDREDS of classic country songs. There's also an interesting little vid on KZread that's a brief tutorial on how to play his style of piano.

I swear to God I wasted almost two years of my life on the girl that Mr. Watson is singing about...Thank you so much for the post and thank God I didn't end up laying by any railroad tracks in Denver...I had enough sense to walk (run) away!

I meant gene in 93 Wichita ks great guy great music.

Yep, had a couple of those in my life...........thankfully I saw the writing on the wall in time to move on before rings were exchanged. Great song.

he is just one of the best

...jewelry is unlucky to me....unless it's given with love....I lose it every friggin' time...

That's what i think when i see the fireworks and on stage antics of Today's performers. Yknow it's sad but true, Gene, Haggard , the Possum, and even the great Hank Williams wouldn't stand a chance today.Pop music is good word for it. Cause it sure as hell aint real country music.

Too many women like this....took me two go rounds to learn.......couldn't work hard enough or make enough money.... this song reminds me of the old bluegrass song "Big Spike Hammer" . Sierra Hull and the Boxcars sing a great live version of it together, posted on KZread....

Damn they don't write country songs like this no more. Spent 7 "Sawmill dollars" on a bracelet just to satisfy your 14 carat mind! LOL is she still with Willie Jackson. He gave up his wife and kids for a hot little gold digger. I wonder if ol' Willie still alive, LMAO probably not! Gene Watson's coming to Richmond VA tomorrow night tickets are only $20 a pop got mine can't wait to see the show!

Hard lessons ..make country songs.. im in...

Perfect

I still recall the mornin' that I met you, standing out in front of Wilsons Five and Dime; Staring thru the window at the jewelry, hungry for the things you couldn't buy. Just like a fool I thought that I could please you, I saw you had an eye for things that shine; I paid seven sawmill dollars for a bracelet, Just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind. Layin' by these railroad tracks in Denver, with a hurtin' head and a half a pint of wine; Everything except my soul has been surrendered, just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind. The cabin that I built in West Virginia, was not enough to keep you satisfied; 'cause a man that's got a sawmill occupation, can't afford to feed a rich girls appetite. I wonder if you're still with Willie Jackson, sometimes I wonder if he's still alive; Ole' Willie he gave up his wife and children, just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind. Layin' by these railroad tracks in Denver, with a hurtin' head and a half a pint of wine; Everything except my soul has been surrendered, just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind. Just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind.

Love the female backup singer on it.

With all of Gene's hits, this was his only #1 in Billboard.

When the makers of this "video"came to the fourteen carat part, they should have shown fourteen carrots.

I love the classic country and it’s so relaxing

A great singer and an equally great version. I tried it myself on a youtube cover.
