Hadn’t thought about this song in years mainly because it’s always ripped at my heart and made me break down. Didn’t know Jeff had passed away and wish I had commented years ago but the way I believe is he can still see this looking down. This song will always be mine and my fathers song. He’s still with us thankfully but the rest of the song relates so much and really hits home with the exception of it was my first car a 68 GTO and we did fix it up and build it together. It wasn’t a mustang. There is no way any father and son that had a special bond with cars can listen to this and not she’d a tear. If you know what I’m talking about then you know. It’s so well written and hits right in your feels. Thank you Jeff for this jewel years ago and releasing this when you did will always be one of my classics rip.
I love this song it brings tears to my eyes every time I listen to it and when I sung it Karaoke I started crying. I didn't even know until now that he passed away, he died the day after my 41st Birthday
Back in the mid 1990's i was restoring my Ford Maverick Grabber Fuel injected pro touring car. I was in High School at that time . My father was a Postal worker working lots of overtime it was a hard life for him but he helped me pay for parts for my Maverick. Everytime this song came on the radio it made me Appreciate my father so much more i would even shed a tear. Today's music doesnt teach morals or values anymore.
My father-in-law wanted to rebuild a Mustang with my husband (his oldest son) but life got in the way and it never happened. 30 years later, we received the keys to the Mustang his dad went on to build. This song always was a reminder to what is really important...not the car, but the time that was missed. Memories.
Oh man. I always get so damn choked up when he opens up the letter and it says "Here's your car, son. I hope it flies." Brings me to tears every single time
say Hi to God from your fans who always thought you were special. Jeff is one of those guys who you knew he's headed to Heaven, the way he lived his life, the way he inspired others and thought about others ahead of him and always putting God first. Cheers.. Yeah, buddy!
Back in 79 I bought an old 65 Mustang while in high school. Although my dad worked many long hours we spent the next year completely restoring that car. Suspension, driveline, interior, exterior paint. Best time I ever spent with Dad was that summer. Put a 302 Boss, 4 speed in that old Stang and it flew. Don't let Mom know how fast she is he told me. It was my money, and Dad's time and skill. He passed that knowledge on me, a love for old cars and hot rods. Lost Dad in 09, I sold the old car to pay off medical bills. I miss the car, Dad even more so. But I still have that summer spent with him and our time together. This song means alot to me.
I learned to drive in a 71 Chrysler Newport with my dad. I wanted one ever since. When he passed 12/23/22 it hit hard. I still want one. He will always be in it if I ever get one.
Love this song. I loved my parents deeply. My parents were so practical but my mama knew I was dreamer and she loved me for it. I wanted this old Chevelle to fix up. Dad wouldn’t give me the money. So my mom made it happen. I brought it home pulled behind another vehicle because it had no motor or transmission. Dad said what are you going to do with that pile of junk? My response was fix her up. I worked on it and worked on it. Then at thanksgiving that year we found out mom had cancer. My friends frantically helped me finish it. By following Easter she was gone. My best friend drove it in the funeral procession for me. I still have that car almost 33 years later. She sits in my heated garage. I’ve had many fond memories in that car from girls I dated to giving my own grandchildren rides. My Betsy, what I call my 70 Chevelle, is 51 this year. Dad always commented what a beautiful car it was and he never thought from the way it looked when I brought it home that’d it would turn out so good. I treasure that old car and many times we needed the money and I thought of selling her but my wife always fought me on it and we kept it. She said if I sold that car my heart would go with it so we always got by and kept the car. Glad my wife had some sense. To my mama, Happy Valentines Day in heaven. I miss you still. Hard to believe you’ve been gone 32 years next month. Happy Valentine’s Day to my wife of 26 years. I wouldn’t have made it this far without you.
Thank all...I remember the video was a two-day-shoot, and man it was HOT!. The Mustang kept overheating and we would have to stop and let it cool off, while I melted..lol. Great memories!
It is never about the object, it's just about the memory of what ever I was doing with my dad, Whether it was baseball or fishing, Hes been gone 10 Yrs, I have lots of memories, thanks Jeff this song reminded of that
My dad passed away in 2012. This is song always brings back the memories of the times I had with him, and the pain that I had worked so hard to bury from loosing him. Rest in peace my greatest friend. Thank you for teaching me to be a good man. I know I can never fill your shoes.
The Country Music Industry and the Franklin Police Department lost a true ICON. It was an honor to talk with Jeff Last year about his music and his life as a Police Officer. He said he would'nt have changed anything. Our thoughts and Hearts go out to Kim Carson and the family. May he Rest in Peace.
I lived this song from a daughters perspective who lost my mom when I was very little, this song came out when I was teen it was a gut punch then and is now. RIP Jeff, singing with the angels
the only time i've ever seen my dad cry was watching this music video on CMT as a kid. this is the only place i can still find this song now that Jeff is gone and i cant tell you how important it is to me. Thank you.
My heart and prayers are with the Carson family in this sorrowful time I couldn't listen to or watch this video after we lost my father in 96 to lung cancer but it eventually helped me to deal with my father's passing and I know Jeff's family is going through the pain of his loss I hope they find peace in knowing he's in a better place in paradise.
My favorite Jeff Carson song!! My dad died in 2012 and the happiest times we had were in a Corvette first a 1991 then a 2003. So this song makes me think of him. Love you Dad!!!
This song mixed with wine makes a even the strongest man cry his heart out. Saddest song I’ve heard in a long while,. this is a very emotional and powerful song. What a classic.
Born Jeff Carson Herndon. ACC's #25 song of the '96 survey year. Jeff hit #3 in Billboard, 12-23-95. God bless you, Carlos, for postin' it. Thanx! have a blessed rest of the week!
Jeff was a great singer and a very much a gift from God and was very underated and didn't get appericated for his great classic songs he should have been more paid attention to because he was one of the greatest underated singers of all time below is my top 50 greatest male underated voices in country music history 1.

This song gets me every time I hear ..I can remember my dad telling about all the mustang that he used to drive... I wish that my dad was still here .but sadly he passed away in 2021. Miss you Dad
Hadn’t heard this song in decades. I knew it was sentimental way back when it came out. Today, as a single dad who lost his dad last fall…..wow does it register. Reduced me to a blubbering mess in no time.
This was me and my Dad. Except with Mr Robinsons 1957 Bel Air. Was because of him when the opportunity finally came I was able to get the car. (Yes the one in my picture) Sadly we only got to work on it together a few times before he passed away in a motorcycle accident. Have always loved this song, it definitely hits very close to home. Today Dad would have been 61. Miss him so much!
This song takes me back to when my dad was still alive. He passed away 9 and half years ago from cancer. This song and video brought back a lot of pleasant and happy memories
I lost my dad when I was 17, almost 30 years ago. This song has always reminded me of him. I seen the man work two sometimes three jobs to provide for his family.
R.I.P Jeff I am sorry to hear of your passing your gone to soon but sure won't be forgotten. This is the main song I know but does this ever choke me up everytime I hear it and watch the video. It reminds me of my dad even know hes been gone now almost 30 years. Time is tough right now and to hear of your passing just adds more saddness to my day and my wife as she loved your songs too.
I remember being a teenager watching CMT (USA version ) on the 18 ft Black satellite Dish in our yard here in Canada, watching the greatest Country Music ever videos and the best Country music ever produced. Not like that Country music today I not sure if that some of it is Country ????? No heart, no real life, and definitely no Classic Country Feel !!!!!! Thanks for True Country Music Carlo Eduardo.
I remember when this song and video were first released I never thought I’d find myself in this song years later I lost my mom in 93 to cancer I was raised by my dad and trust me there was a lot of things a woman would never know if not for my dad and always taking me with him places and shows that father and son would go I’ll admit I enjoy every minute I got with my dad I lost my dad in a very tragic explosion accident April 25 2019 my life changed in so many ways that morning I look back 25 months ago and the pain and loss is still there every day and I honestly don’t think I’ll ever get over get past that day I miss you so much dad life hasn’t been easy since you left us one thing I truly believe you and mom are together again I have said this many times before I can’t wait to see you both again please watch over us protect us until we meet again I love and miss you your little girl Jessie RIP George L Kelley September 15 1951 to April 25 2019
Ok... bawling. Never looked up who sang this until today 3-28-22 when I read an article about him that said he'd passed away. What a shame that I knew him best from songs that He wrote, but didn't sing. I know God has his plan playing out.....sure gonna take more note of the song writers from now on!!!
This is mine and daddy song. Daddy was a WW2 vet he bought me my first truck in 1991 a 75 ford Super Cab truck 3/4 truck with a 460 and it blew up when we got it in our driveway and it sat in our backyard for years, daddy never moved very fast but he seemed to always have a plan that was unspoken. Over the next year, daddy built an A frame in the backyard, to pull the engine and transmission. We waited 4 years to get the money to get the truck running again, there it sat, and I only dreamed of having that truck running. But over the course of my teenage years with the help of daddy and me by his side learning to work on trucks, we got it running in tip top shape again, daddy knew how to fix anything he always had a plan how to weld up things he custom made. He knew how to make things work. and I was a young inpatient Lad, I learned a lot, from my old man, I drove that truck for 5 years before I sold it pulling to rodeos. Great memories of trials and tribulations and hard work and a vision. I never knew what was in daddy's head but he had a vision that was unspoken. I wish I never sold that truck. I wish I knew then what I know now. this Song get my tears going bring back all the memories of what we went through. But it was all part of the life learning process, know as a vision. If you can imagine it, you can make it happen. I lived it.
This song always takes me back to times with my Dad. Great singer and writer that will be missed by everyone who ever heard him. RIP sir, thanks for the trips down memory lane.
RIP, Jeff. While not as well known as many artists, upon hearing this song a flood of emotions hit this hits so close to home. It is so easy to put 'family time' aside to do this or that. And next thing you know 25 years have passed, kids are grown and on their own, and you missed it because you were too busy working. I heard the song, I just didn't hear the message.
I remember Jeff. In the Summer 95 I was upstairs in my room at Mom and Dad's and I saw the video on C M T. On March 26, 2022 God wanted Jeff 2 go 2 Heaven. So God took him 2 Heaven. Jeff's pain free, sorrow free, suffering free, all better and he's all new. "See U someday Jeff in Heaven".
This song has always reduced me to tears in just a few seconds. Too bad that Jeff Carson didn't continue on with his music career but quite honestly, what comes out of Nashville these days is no more than fluff. I have never been a big country music fan but 80's/90's country was really good, at least compared to today.
For me the early 90s to the early 2000s was my favorite country music period. I don't even listen to it anymore. I haven't for years. But anytime I'm switching radio stations and Joe Diffy, Aaron Tippen, Confederate Railroad, etc or anyone else from that era comes on I sing along at the top of my lungs.
They used to play this all the time in elevators and I would start crying. Then I moved to NWA and found out he came from here. He is the reason I listen to Country Music.
This song is so fascinating and beautiful. I'm amazed that such a song could exist but I'm glad I found. Truly a heartwarming and fulfilling song. I swear it changed my life.
Jeff Carson preformed live at The Coloma High school ."Coloma Michigan" Did a tribute to Merle Haggard and he was amazing. . Sept 25th 2017 #JeffCarson
A man who left the music industry to serve as a police officer. Died in his late 50's of a heart attack as many cops do. Shift work, late nights, stress and fast food will take a toll on a man or woman in blue. His sacrifice and service did not go unnoticed. RIP brother in blue.
Or did the music industry leave him? If he or you don't like your career choice, change it. You were not drafted into a police force. You chose it. Stress, fast food, shifts wha wha wha.
RIP JEFF!!!! WE LOST ANOTHER GREAT 90S SINGER. I met Jeff along with Ty Herndon and the late Daryle Singletary at Tioga Downs Racino in NY in the late 2000s. I have a photo of all the guys and my mom and I. :/
This song hits so close to home. My late father had a red on red A code '65 Mustang GT convertible he bought new. I always heard the stories of how that car "flew", he never lost a race with it, and I always wanted her when I got old enough to drive. I didn't get the Mustang, but he let me have a '54 Ford convertible instead. We spent my sophomore n Jr yrs rebuilding the ol girl. Got her running the 1st part of my Sr year, boy oh boy she was my pride n joy. I ended up buying my own '65 coupe after I turned 21. My 1st of, actually technically my 2nd ( I still have my Mustang pedal car 😁😁😁), many Mustangs. When the song came out I was driving a very, very wicked '85 Mustang GT my father helped me build. I lost my daddy on the 4th of July in 2014. While my ol '54 is rusting in peace, all my Mustangs are long gone and my daddy's was too far gone to save there still is a Mustang in the stable. My mom got a 64 1/2 convertible almost identical to my father's and I put many of the parts off my dad's that were able to be saved on hers. HOPEFULLY this spring the "hoofbeat" out of his will be rebuilt and put down in mom's. I learned so much from my daddy out in the garage, working on the Mustangs, my '54. It was one of the places where he taught me to be a man and now that I'm FINALLY sober he can look down on me and be proud. Miss you POP. P.S. From a trucker to an officer BE CAREFUL out there Jeff!!!!!
Rest in Peace Jeff your voice and your music will carry on long after today. I pray that God comforts your family as they deal with losing you. Thank you so much for being a part of my childhood that I have never forgotten
Wonderful! 💛The song the words touched my heart & opened my eyes to my soul! Memories of my Dad happy times passed & sadness , Tears fall for a little girl's loss & Smiles for a time of Careing,love, & The happy,fun,playful times!!!💛 I will have always a part of me in my heart & soul!💕
My dream was always to have a Camaro but I didn’t have a great paying job and my parents discouraged me. I finally got my dream car when I was 29. My Dad loved it I think, as he’d drive it whenever got the chance. Mom and Dad are both gone now, what a beautiful time that was. ❤️
Just found out from Country Cast that Jeff Carson has passed away Jeff Carson was a great singer this was my favorite song by him My thoughts and prayers goes out to his family and friends R.I.P. Jeff Carson you will be missed Gone But Never Forgotten
RIP Jeff, you may be gone but your songs will live on forever!
gone way too soon
Man I wish country music was still country music like this. Miss it..
Hadn’t thought about this song in years mainly because it’s always ripped at my heart and made me break down. Didn’t know Jeff had passed away and wish I had commented years ago but the way I believe is he can still see this looking down. This song will always be mine and my fathers song. He’s still with us thankfully but the rest of the song relates so much and really hits home with the exception of it was my first car a 68 GTO and we did fix it up and build it together.

This is when country songs had meaning. And hits you in the gut. Love you Dad ❤ see you again soon. It's been 10 years still missing you
I love this song it brings tears to my eyes every time I listen to it and when I sung it Karaoke I started crying. I didn't even know until now that he passed away, he died the day after my 41st Birthday

Ugh. Same. I'm bawling.
Me too.
Andrew Mitchell me too buddy
And "I hope you understand I always did the best that I could do". 😭😭
That’s the part that gets me too
say Hi to God from your fans who always thought you were special. Jeff is one of those guys who you knew he's headed to Heaven, the way he lived his life, the way he inspired others and thought about others ahead of him and always putting God first. Cheers.. Yeah, buddy!
Back in 79 I bought an old 65 Mustang while in high school. Although my dad worked many long hours we spent the next year completely restoring that car. Suspension, driveline, interior, exterior paint. Best time I ever spent with Dad was that summer. Put a 302 Boss, 4 speed in that old Stang and it flew. Don't let Mom know how fast she is he told me. It was my money, and Dad's time and skill. He passed that knowledge on me, a love for old cars and hot rods. Lost Dad in 09, I sold the old car to pay off medical bills. I miss the car, Dad even more so. But I still have that summer spent with him and our time together. This song means alot to me.
What an awesome song!! 90s country was the last of great country music!! RIP Jeff
This song brings tears to my eyes. Such an emotional song. Jeff may you rest in peace. Your songs live on.
I learned to drive in a 71 Chrysler Newport with my dad. I wanted one ever since. When he passed 12/23/22 it hit hard. I still want one. He will always be in it if I ever get one.

May God bless you. Your story is so beautiful. I've cried a few times! Thank you for sharing it.

30 yrs, yesterday. The pain never stops
Uncle Vince- we got one
Happy Birthday ❤️ I wish you were here
No it doesn't, It's been 8 years so far.
Was always a great song in my teens, but now I'm 42 and it makes me tear up... Country music should mean something, to bad those days a far far gone.
the only time i've ever seen my dad cry was watching this music video on CMT as a kid. this is the only place i can still find this song now that Jeff is gone and i cant tell you how important it is to me. Thank you.
My heart and prayers are with the Carson family in this sorrowful time I couldn't listen to or watch this video after we lost my father in 96 to lung cancer but it eventually helped me to deal with my father's passing and I know Jeff's family is going through the pain of his loss I hope they find peace in knowing he's in a better place in paradise.
I always cry on this song. "Here's your car, son. I hope it flies." Such a beautiful line.
Makes me cry everytime 😢. A Father's Love 💘is so Beautiful 😍. I lost mine 44 years ago and what a void 💔. I Love You Sweet Daddy. Much Love Patty 💘
Lost my dad last year to kidney failure. Still makes me tear up everytime. He used to take me grocery shopping when my support staff couldn't.
I had the pleasure of meeting Jeff, in 1999. He was true gentleman. Great singer. RIP😔😔
My favorite Jeff Carson song!! My dad died in 2012 and the happiest times we had were in a Corvette first a 1991 then a 2003. So this song makes me think of him. Love you Dad!!!
Just read about Jeff's passing.
Hadn't thought about this song in years. I love it and am tearing up now as I listen to it.
Same 😞
I'm totally choking up as I listen to this golden voice and wonderful song.
This song mixed with wine makes a even the strongest man cry his heart out. Saddest song I’ve heard in a long while,. this is a very emotional and powerful song. What a classic.

My younger self remembers first hearing you in the 90s. You were taken far too soon. Thanks Jeff for giving us so much.
Jeff was a great singer and a very much a gift from God and was very underated and didn't get appericated for his great classic songs he should have been more paid attention to because he was one of the greatest underated singers of all time below is my top 50 greatest male underated voices in country music history

This song gets me every time I hear ..I can remember my dad telling about all the mustang that he used to drive... I wish that my dad was still here .but sadly he passed away in 2021. Miss you Dad
This is what country music is. Not that shitty auto tuned mess that's on the radio now.
vAllie K u got that right
I know right
Good Earnhardt tribute song
Today's music is garbage
Amen
RIP Jeff! Your music will always be remembered!
Hadn’t heard this song in decades. I knew it was sentimental way back when it came out. Today, as a single dad who lost his dad last fall…..wow does it register. Reduced me to a blubbering mess in no time.
This was me and my Dad. Except with Mr Robinsons 1957 Bel Air. Was because of him when the opportunity finally came I was able to get the car. (Yes the one in my picture) Sadly we only got to work on it together a few times before he passed away in a motorcycle accident. Have always loved this song, it definitely hits very close to home. Today Dad would have been 61. Miss him so much!
This song takes me back to when my dad was still alive. He passed away 9 and half years ago from cancer. This song and video brought back a lot of pleasant and happy memories
I lost my dad when I was 17, almost 30 years ago. This song has always reminded me of him. I seen the man work two sometimes three jobs to provide for his family.

Sad you lost your dad so young…
So SAD to hear of your passing yesterday Mr Jeff Carson...
Thoughts & Prayers of Peace & Comfort to Family & Friends 🙏✝️
May You Rest In Peace 🙏✝️
R.I.P Jeff I am sorry to hear of your passing your gone to soon but sure won't be forgotten. This is the main song I know but does this ever choke me up everytime I hear it and watch the video. It reminds me of my dad even know hes been gone now almost 30 years. Time is tough right now and to hear of your passing just adds more saddness to my day and my wife as she loved your songs too.
I remember being a teenager watching CMT (USA version ) on the 18 ft Black satellite Dish in our yard here in Canada, watching the greatest Country Music ever videos and the best Country music ever produced. Not like that Country music today I not sure if that some of it is Country ????? No heart, no real life, and definitely no Classic Country Feel !!!!!! Thanks for True Country Music Carlo Eduardo.
My dad and I built a 86 Monte Carlo. This song brings back memories just not the same kind of car..
Most under rated song ever. Don't understand how this doesn't have millions of views
I lost my dad back in July now I’m in the process of restoring his 1979 bronco
One of first concerts after I moved to Las Vegas. I can never make it through this song without a tear. RIP Jeff....You are missed.
I remember when this song and video were first released I never thought I’d find myself in this song years later I lost my mom in 93 to cancer I was raised by my dad and trust me there was a lot of things a woman would never know if not for my dad and always taking me with him places and shows that father and son would go I’ll admit I enjoy every minute I got with my dad I lost my dad in a very tragic explosion accident April 25 2019 my life changed in so many ways that morning I look back 25 months ago and the pain and loss is still there every day and I honestly don’t think I’ll ever get over get past that day I miss you so much dad life hasn’t been easy since you left us one thing I truly believe you and mom are together again I have said this many times before I can’t wait to see you both again please watch over us protect us until we meet again I love and miss you your little girl Jessie
RIP George L Kelley
September 15 1951 to April 25 2019
Im.sorry
Rip. We won’t forget you. Thank God we got the music to hear over and over ..,,,,,,I still
got my 70
Pontiac LeMans , more than 30 years now!
Such a great country voice. RIP Jeff.
NO matter how old this song is, I still cry.. thinking about my dad who passed away at a very young age of 40, from cancer ☹️ god bless him
Ok... bawling.
Never looked up who sang this until today 3-28-22 when I read an article about him that said he'd passed away. What a shame that I knew him best from songs that He wrote, but didn't sing. I know God has his plan playing out.....sure gonna take more note of the song writers from now on!!!
This is mine and daddy song. Daddy was a WW2 vet he bought me my first truck in 1991 a 75 ford Super Cab truck 3/4 truck with a 460 and it blew up when we got it in our driveway and it sat in our backyard for years, daddy never moved very fast but he seemed to always have a plan that was unspoken. Over the next year, daddy built an A frame in the backyard, to pull the engine and transmission. We waited 4 years to get the money to get the truck running again, there it sat, and I only dreamed of having that truck running. But over the course of my teenage years with the help of daddy and me by his side learning to work on trucks, we got it running in tip top shape again, daddy knew how to fix anything he always had a plan how to weld up things he custom made. He knew how to make things work. and I was a young inpatient Lad, I learned a lot, from my old man, I drove that truck for 5 years before I sold it pulling to rodeos. Great memories of trials and tribulations and hard work and a vision. I never knew what was in daddy's head but he had a vision that was unspoken. I wish I never sold that truck. I wish I knew then what I know now. this Song get my tears going bring back all the memories of what we went through. But it was all part of the life learning process, know as a vision. If you can imagine it, you can make it happen. I lived it.
R.I.P. -way underrated as a country music artist!
Just heard of Jeff's passing too soon and watched this video again...Dang onions!
This song always takes me back to times with my Dad. Great singer and writer that will be missed by everyone who ever heard him. RIP sir, thanks for the trips down memory lane.
RIP, Jeff. While not as well known as many artists, upon hearing this song a flood of emotions hit this hits so close to home. It is so easy to put 'family time' aside to do this or that. And next thing you know 25 years have passed, kids are grown and on their own, and you missed it because you were too busy working. I heard the song, I just didn't hear the message.
Lost my dad 7-2-2019 he was 43 man do I miss him now it’s time to make his bronco new again it’s been sitting but so many memories
I remember Jeff. In the Summer 95 I was upstairs in my room at Mom and Dad's and I saw the video on C M T. On March 26, 2022 God wanted Jeff 2 go 2 Heaven. So God took him 2 Heaven. Jeff's pain free, sorrow free, suffering free, all better and he's all new. "See U someday Jeff in Heaven".
This song has always reduced me to tears in just a few seconds. Too bad that Jeff Carson didn't continue on with his music career but quite honestly, what comes out of Nashville these days is no more than fluff. I have never been a big country music fan but 80's/90's country was really good, at least compared to today.
Nashville would never let this get played on the radio...don't blame Jeff for crossing the blue line. He's as good a cop as he was a singer.
Thanks Sarina...awww shucks...
For me the early 90s to the early 2000s was my favorite country music period. I don't even listen to it anymore. I haven't for years. But anytime I'm switching radio stations and Joe Diffy, Aaron Tippen, Confederate Railroad, etc or anyone else from that era comes on I sing along at the top of my lungs.
@@snowps1 Me too, I couldn't of said it better.
RIP Jeff ... Love your music .. What a singer ... You are missed by millions ..
I always cry listening this song .I just heard about the passing of Jeff Carson today. 😥
Rip man 😭 My dad showed me who you were,and he's gone and now it's your time.
Thank you for your music 💕🎶
They used to play this all the time in elevators and I would start crying. Then I moved to NWA and found out he came from here.
He is the reason I listen to Country Music.
Man I love this song so much and I dedicate this song to my Father he loves this song so much
This song is so fascinating and beautiful. I'm amazed that such a song could exist but I'm glad I found. Truly a heartwarming and fulfilling song.
I swear it changed my life.
They don't make great Country songs like this anymore.
Brittany B Bro country and tractor rap are not country music. It's all pop now.
Rip Jeff your song was played at my dad's funeral you will always be an icon to me
this song always takes me back to the Morning of 11/05/2001 when i got the call that my father had passed. R.I.P. Father, and Thank you.
My daddy just died few weeks ago and this was always our song. I miss my daddy
sorry
jeff carson thank you
That's when country Music and cmt had there best moments great music. Now country music is not the same
Here's your wings Jeff, I hope you fly 😇😇😇 Taken much too soon but look at all the love ❤️ you left behind.
One of the nicest guys I ever met!! RIP ♥️
Rip in peace jeff .... one of favorite songs ...lost my dad at a young age
I feel I needed to listen to this today because today is Father's Day a decade after my dad passed away.
Jeff Carson preformed live at The Coloma High school ."Coloma Michigan" Did a tribute to Merle Haggard and he was amazing. . Sept 25th 2017
#JeffCarson
yes, I did :-)
A man who left the music industry to serve as a police officer. Died in his late 50's of a heart attack as many cops do. Shift work, late nights, stress and fast food will take a toll on a man or woman in blue. His sacrifice and service did not go unnoticed. RIP brother in blue.
Or did the music industry leave him? If he or you don't like your career choice, change it. You were not drafted into a police force. You chose it. Stress, fast food, shifts wha wha wha.
RIP JEFF!!!! WE LOST ANOTHER GREAT 90S SINGER. I met Jeff along with Ty
Herndon and the late Daryle Singletary at Tioga Downs Racino in NY in
the late 2000s. I have a photo of all the guys and my mom and I. :/
RIP Jeff Carson Sad to hear your of your passing. Love this song.
This song makes me wish I had spent more time with my dad, when he was alive. He died around 05 06. An I still think about him
Jeff passed away (3-26-22) a great voice and very talented..RIP JEFF 🙏
I love this song so much!!! I lost my daddy Feb 8, 2018. I miss him so much that at sometimes it hurts to breathe!!!
This song hits so close to home. My late father had a red on red A code '65 Mustang GT convertible he bought new. I always heard the stories of how that car "flew", he never lost a race with it, and I always wanted her when I got old enough to drive. I didn't get the Mustang, but he let me have a '54 Ford convertible instead. We spent my sophomore n Jr yrs rebuilding the ol girl. Got her running the 1st part of my Sr year, boy oh boy she was my pride n joy. I ended up buying my own '65 coupe after I turned 21. My 1st of, actually technically my 2nd ( I still have my Mustang pedal car 😁😁😁), many Mustangs. When the song came out I was driving a very, very wicked '85 Mustang GT my father helped me build. I lost my daddy on the 4th of July in 2014. While my ol '54 is rusting in peace, all my Mustangs are long gone and my daddy's was too far gone to save there still is a Mustang in the stable. My mom got a 64 1/2 convertible almost identical to my father's and I put many of the parts off my dad's that were able to be saved on hers. HOPEFULLY this spring the "hoofbeat" out of his will be rebuilt and put down in mom's. I learned so much from my daddy out in the garage, working on the Mustangs, my '54. It was one of the places where he taught me to be a man and now that I'm FINALLY sober he can look down on me and be proud. Miss you POP. P.S. From a trucker to an officer BE CAREFUL out there Jeff!!!!!
That song always brings me to tears. Even though my parents are still allive.
Rest in Peace Jeff your voice and your music will carry on long after today. I pray that God comforts your family as they deal with losing you. Thank you so much for being a part of my childhood that I have never forgotten
Rip Brother, this song resulted in a lot of sons calling there fathers.
Ty Jeff for singing this song RIP and condolences to your two families
Wonderful! 💛The song the words touched my heart & opened my eyes to my soul! Memories of my Dad happy times passed & sadness , Tears fall for a little girl's loss & Smiles for a time of Careing,love, & The happy,fun,playful times!!!💛 I will have always a part of me in my heart & soul!💕
My dream was always to have a Camaro but I didn’t have a great paying job and my parents discouraged me. I finally got my dream car when I was 29. My Dad loved it I think, as he’d drive it whenever got the chance. Mom and Dad are both gone now, what a beautiful time that was. ❤️
This is what true and real country music is supposed to be its supposed to tell a story and have Heart and come from your soul
I have always. Loved this song. My first car was a 64 1/2 Mustang.
This song is so powerful it breaks my heart what a message hold your children right with love
This song makes me cry. Love his music.
God Bless you Jeff... its been a wild ride but my heart is broken
One of my favorite songs ever. Period.
