When I realize that Tom T Hall was my Dad's age, and us kids grew up on his song stories, I'm all the more grateful Dad's still here to enjoy sharing it. And I thank God for this talented man who left these musical treasures. May he Rest in Peace, and God console his family, closest friends and all who mourn his passing.

I agree, Tom T Halls songs have always been my favorite, still got all vinyl records with Mr Tom stored next to my turn table. So many great tunes. RIP Mr Story teller. 😇

My dad was Skeeter Plummer the man that he dedicated this song to. He died just a few weeks later. I will be forever grateful to Tom T. and Dixie Hall for being so kind to my father.

I'd pull out a fingernail to sit and be able to listen to Tom T. Hall and Guy Clark. Two of a kind. . .poets. . .storytellers. . gifted. National treasures both of them. One is gone. . the other still here but retired. Thank God we can still enjoy their music.

You can see that he is struggling at times... but who cares!!!! He is the best country music songwriter that ever lived. God Bless your soul Tom T.

RIP THE STORY TELLER 😞😢

Tom T. Hall was one of a kind. Brought simple songs that were never so simple if one listened well. Long live his work! Tom T. Hall will be missed greatly. Hats off to the storyteller!

As I write the life story of Johnny Rodriguez WITH Johnny, we both offer our prayers as Johnny was in Tom's band in the 70's. RIP Tom T. Hall.

Tom T Hall was a great songwriter. They don’t make em like him anymore. He will be greatly missed.

I been singing and playing Tom Ts songs for many yrs at 74 he's been an inspiration one of my favorite songs was Pamela Brown I still do it, Thanks Ol T for the music ❤🎵

I have cousin's named Ralph Crawford..

That's my uncle! He grew up with my dad, Earl Frank Clark in Olive Hill Kentucky! And I love him even though I don't know him. Because he is a great person! I lost my daddy 20 years ago, but Tom T. keeps his memory alive! I love you Tom T. Hall!

Tom T Hall was my dad's favorite country singer. When I hear Tom T Hall...it always reminds me of riding around with my dad back in the 70s on some old country back roads in Dothan Alabama in his old 1972 Chevy L.W.B. C/ 10 p/u...3 speed on the column...no a/c...both windows rolled down...Tom T Hall on 8-track tape... Great memories and REMINISCING TEARS...I can still hear my dad saying..."Tom.T Hall's the best country singer there'll ever be"...thanks to my dad I still listen to Tom T Hall often. I sure do miss my dad.

I remember my dad was always a Tom T fan as well, he would sing "Pay No Attention To Alice". With the advent of KZread, i was able to download the song and finally hear Tom T singing it. Like you Randy, I listen with happy tears. Thanks for sharing your memories.

This song really captures that classic work ethic. My Dad had a fall from the roof... got a concussion and a broken arm....... all he could think of was getting the building done. He went home as soon as he could, and proceeded to drive the forklift taking supplies up to the roof so the building could keep going. (I took to swingin' the hammer) This is just one of many stories I have of my Dad's dedication to getting the job done regardless of circumstances.

My dad played the ballad of forty dollars and Clayton Delaney all the time. I do the cowboy and the poet upon request

Greatest Story Teller Ever!

Unreal. 37 year old Yank and this guy is my hero

RIP old friend. 🙏🏻

Kentucky represent! The best musician ever!

Never enough tom t hill songs

I grew up on Tom T Hall

I love all of Tom T Hall's songs but this is my favorite. Maybe because my father was a farmer and it reminds me of him. He worked hard long after he was physically unable to.

And I.... love you, too. - Tom T Hall.

RIP Tom T. Hall.....you are a true legend.

Back in the days when Tom T Hall was prefoming what a joy it was to hear him, The same to day thank for his CDs & DVDs.

When I was 19 I spent a week in hospital. My roommate was 6. 25 years later that kid was sitting in the pub and recognized me. Made my day.

Loved this man and artist for my entire life... amazing

Hello Karen, how are you doing?

Lots of country greats have come and gone. None of them quite like Tom. One word to describe him and his music. Honest

This is my favorite Tom T. Hall song. The man is a storytelling genius! He's right up there with the great storytellers like Harry Chapin and Ray Davies.

I Love all of Tom T Halls songs he was one great singer and we will always miss him

aw man, gotta love that kind of country. Real as real can be.

God Bless TomT, Always a Fan, he Always moved me

He was a great storyteller.

My late father grew up with Tom and they could pass for brothers especially when he kept talking and talking just like my dad would ..........RIP .

fucking awesome!!!!!!!

That was a sing-along for us back in the day.

There will never be anthor Tom T Hall.

This is exactly what I think of as a song writer. Real stories. LIVED. Not made up stories. I dream (most times never true) that the writers have experienced the heartache, etc. but Tom T. does it the right way. Anyway I am a old fart (80) rambling on.

Well it seems Tom T Immortalized yer Dad in this song and I'm happy to have lived by yer Dads standards thanks to Tom T ...Condolences to you and yer family on his passing ...

Tom t is a great man .. glad your dad got to go see him,

I grew up listening to Grand Ole Opray 8tracks and shows that Tom T Hall was on...loved his songs. Never knew he was from Olive Hill Ky...I had an uncle that lived there and made many trips there to see him.

i love tom t so much....and this is one of my favorite songs....if theres one guy in this whole word who wrote great songs that you might not have heard of..its tom t...trip to hyden and back when we was young are but two...

That was awesome. And he is still alive..!

Gosh, I miss him!

God bless you mr. Hall!

I used to sing this song to my wife.She would get so pissed .ya we are still married.

Tom T. Reminds me of a Old black man I met. His name was Cramus Smalls! I was about 20 yrs old and in the hospital for a operation. He was in there for a operation next to me. He had been a hard drinker his whole life. You got to understand. He's 80 yrs old and I am young white kid! He told me stories of the old times when he lived down south! Every night it was a new old story. I would listen to him till I fell a sleep. Him and I became good friends in that hospital! Young and old but just a like. It was after two weeks. I was to go home! We ate are dinner and he told me his last story, about how he left his Southern life and headed North to Michigan to work in the Auto factory in Detroit City. The next morning I woke up early to pack to head home. The curtain next to my bed was pulled back and Cramus was gone! I pulled the chain for the nurse. I asked what happened to Mr. Smalls. She said his stomach bled out and he passed without a sound. I still remember Cramus! When I hear Old Dogs and Children and Watermelon Wine! I get choked up and cry! Shawn.

Yes yes yes

What a gentleman

The Homecoming. one of the greatest ever. .Old Dogs and Children. . .Ballad of Forty Dollars. . .what a poet.

The Cramus Smalls story. Reminded me of another man, I knew in my small town in Indiana. He's name was Arthur EASY Walton! They called him that because. He never did anything fast! He was in his late 70's. When I met him. He had a sign in the old pool hall window. I was riding my bike up town as I called it. Even though it was a town of less 500 people, and the rail road tracks cut the town in half. I walked in and asked about the sign for help. A very short man with glasses and a Pall Mall non filter cigarette in his mouth said. I need a good man to take care of the pool tables and spit toones. I told The man my name and he stuck out his hand said my name is Easy Walton glad to meet you young man, your hired. He wanted someone for after school and on weekends to set the pool tables up and clean the place up. That was the first time, I heard of snooker and the the term. "Rackem up". I got 25 cents for each game I racked plus a whole dollar a hour. EASY, drove a 1960 Chevy Impala. The color was black and gold. Every day at one o'clock in the afternoon. He would do a"U" turn on the main drag and park in front of the pool hall. It was like clock work. I worked for Easy for many years.He taught me many things about life! How to drink Kesslers Whiskey from a pint bottle. How to blow smoke rings and Cuss like a sailor. I heard he lived to be 100 years old. I sure miss people like Easy. They were the salt of the earth!

Shawn...that's an ABSOLUTE AWESOME story. I have found thru the years that my dad's & my grandpa's generation was full of WISDOM, WITT, & A LITTLE B.S.!!! Much love from Mobile Alabama.

Sure lookin' old Tom. Bless you!

Back When I was ten years old. I had my own little grass cutting Business. My Toro top crank mower, smoked alot. But, I kept fresh gas and oil from the Mobil station uptown. You know the one with the flying Red horse on the side of the building. One day after cutting grass in the hot summer sun. I went to the station to fill up my can with gas and to buy some more oil again! A man approached me and grabbed my strap on my overalls. He said slow down for a second young feller. I need to ask a question. I looked up through sweat filled eyes. I not suppose to talk with strangers mister. He spoke again in a clear voice. What's that spelling on the inside of your overalls. S.P.B. I said back! My name's Big Ben Gardner the gentleman said. You remind me of another young man I took under my chicken wing many yrs ago. See he was walking down a gravel road out in the country. He to was wearing overalls when I happened upon him. The lad was crying and kinda upset! He said his Father gave him a "Woopin" and walked out. On his mother and sister and him. He said. he was running away. So I asked him what's your name son. He said HEB. I said that's interesting name for a small boy. Ben and HEB talked for a long long time. Would you like to come home with me for some vittles and continue this conversation. Big Ben thought maybe he could get some thing out of the boy after he got a full stomch. During the feast the boy spilled his guts about his beatings and his Dad running off with neighbor lady down the street. So Big Ben found out where HEB lived and took him straight home so his Momma didn't worry so much. Big Ben and HEB took to each other real quick like. Through the years. Big Ben taught HEB everything he knew about Fishing and Hunting and life in general. Ben evening got HEB his first car and real job. Later on HEB settled down with a nice country girl. Her name was Neva Lee Wray! They had four girls and boy! Neva Lee loved horses and singing to pass the time. HEB like his daughters. But he loved that boy! He taught that boy EVERTHING, How to Fish and to Hunt and life in general! See HEB'S real name! was Howard Eugene Beck! When.Ben stopped Howard! On that gravel road H.E.B. was written in Capital Letters on inside of his overalls. Just like mine that day he found me! S.P.B. Shawn Paul Beck! See! H.E.B. was my Dad! Shawn
