I've never liked Elvis' brief and boring live version of this song and I never will. Elvis should have recorded a full and proper version of this classic smash hit Hank Williams, Sr. cajun country song instead. The very best renditions of this cajun country song are all definitely by Hank Williams, Sr.
Elvis did this because he was performing in Louisiana in 1975. About one minute long.
Elvis should've recorded this one in the studio. He did Hank Williams Sr. proud everytime.
A one-liner, funny o hear as a joke in between real performances.
