at 0:15-0:17 he says something I can't understand. Right after the words "while the teardrops started..."
What does he say there???!
Great tune, with great steel and fiddle. Who plays steel. my only guess would be maybe a young jimmy day. who plays fiddle?? |

After searching eight lyrics websites, they all say that line is, "It's mighty close."
As you can see, I have little to do this morning...  |

I agree with Mr. Harper. I think it says "their briny flow."
Briny means salty, so it makes sense. |

The problem with those lyric/tab sites are that they are very often wrong. I use Cowboy Lyrics.com and cowpie.com and most of the time the chords and or words are incorrect. And, the same idiots post on several sites so they are all wrong. I was working on one song one time that the guy left out a whole verse.

Just tryin' to help. Judging from the replies, y'all would probably be just as happy making up your own lyrics.  |

The fiddle sounds like Dale Potter to me. Maybe someone knows for sure... I'd like to know too.
