Used to sit cross legged on the floor with my little record player. This was one of my 45's that I dearly loved and would play often. Much to the chagrin of one of my family members who remains unknown...found my Billy Bayou record in the back window of our car completely warped by the sun....I cried...

wow, never knew he died in a plane crash. This is one of my favorite songs because it is what I had to listen to when I drove my grandparents to Houston wheni got my license in '97. Song has stuck with me since.
