I was in junior high when this song came out. Dated a girl when I was home on leave from the Army in 1966, 25 years later we met again, and we had this song played as our wedding dance 27 years ago.

Me & my ex-wife loved this song. We split up. I still love this song. Forever, probably.

Old times, good times, good music, good lyrics, not today's garbage. Lovely song, nothing but the original of Phil Phillips

I was born in 85 but my dad was born in 42. This was one of his favorite songs and he’d play it in the car everywhere we went. It quickly became one of my favorites as well. He passed away less than a year ago from cancer but listening to all our 1950s/1960s riding jams makes me feel close to him. Miss you daddy.

Music does do that to ya. A song can bring us to the first time we heard it. This song will be added to my performing song list of early rock n roll.
