I'm a 66 year old grandpa who still rodeos and ranch. One can't get much more country and that's how I've lived my life.

Occasionally a song comes out that reflects our lifestyle but Dwight is second to none in my book! Talk about country and we are are in the same mould. . Keep it on Dwight we're behind you 100%
Remember Dwight had Merle and Buck guiding every step of his development. Ain't no wonder why he's so great. Hope you two great men are now resting easy.....

Yup. Saw him last year. The Mavericks opened. It rocked. Cheers from Nashville! (He’s one of the only country guys I really Love besides all the outlaw boys) Nashville pop country sucks !!!
This song has been a favourite since I first heard it ….Makes me dream of leaving everything behind and just enjoying the freedom of where I’m at and enjoying doing just nothing ….
I am a 67 year old widow that just in love with Dwight .He has helped me get thru my sons and my husband's death . Going to see him for the 4th time in Kansas and is just as excited as the 1st time ! Thank you Dwight for helping me thru your beautiful music ❤
I was alone in my truck. Diesel engine crying. Moon lit the highway ... just one long silver band in the night . When this came on... I couldn't wipe the tears away . I couldn't turn it off. And I over a hundred miles per hour when the song finished... But the desert seemed to go on forever... I dont remember the sun coming up... just the night. And the drive... and being alone... Thank you Mr. Dwight...

Dwight Yoakam is not an underrated singer, he is one of the best, his name is legend in the country music world, up there with George, George, Hank and Alan Jackson. Dwight can still fill a stadium.
@@looloo6322 apparently they were all underrated. Check any comment feed on any older country music video. At least one person has said they were underrated. I guess along with their millions they also deserved a crown of jewels or something.
We played this song when my little brother entered the OR to donate his organs. I miss you Chuck. But he'd always much rather be 1000 miles from nowhere, on the farm, listening to old country.
Where are you Dwight ?? ❤we need some new videos we love your music so much!!! Please don’t leave us we need your music today in this crazy world we live in !! I’m still listening in 2024 who’s with me !!!

3:44 For those of us born and raised in Fla. back in the day know the true sadness of this song. I can't listen without crying. My paradise home is gone for the most part. But I love it because it's part of my very soul. And always will be. It's a good thing that you can't take my memories. And she calls me home....always.
My daughter was six in the backseat singing How Far Is Heaven, then asked me, Moma, how far is Heaven? Because I don't like this world. I was shocked. I told her she was here for a job to do for God. Then she could go home. I am sharing this with her right now. SHE'S GONNA LOVE IT! She saw yall at the GA State Fair in Perry. She snuck under the stage and yall were so nice to her, even gave her an autographed blow up toy

Dwight isn't just a great singer but also a great actor. He was an incredibly believable monster in "Sling Blade." A flawless interpretation of an abusive alcoholic, worthy of an Oscar.
Me! I’m a 62 year old Long Island boy, just started listening to him to him a few days ago. Loved him in Sling Blade but that’s it! Going down a Dwight rabbit hole today! Really love the songs! His voice is so old school!
“I’ve got heartaches in my pocket,....” Who else can write a line like that? We’ve all had to carry heartaches in our pockets but only one person put those words down. Awesome!

I'm Sicilian and I've been listening to country music for several years. Unfortunately this type of music is not listened to, it is never broadcast in Italy on the radio, in clubs and on TV, only the usual rap, pop and commercial music, the culture is missing. My favorite artists are Don Williams, George Strait, Marty Robbins, Glen Campbell, Dwight Yoakam, Tom T. Hall, Bobby Bare, Kathy Mattea, Jerry Reed, Jeff Walker. and I like singing this music. I acquired several vinyl records from the era overseas. Who are your favorite country artists?
@@jamiecee4960 i had the privilege of seeing DWIGHT YOAKAM in concert in 93 at a club in Dallas Tx and he was so great and the band was so tight,,ill never forget that night
My beautiful friend from Atlanta made a cassette for me years ago, 90's, because i told her "the only 2 types of music i dont like are Country & Western" [note: Hee Haw was the only thing to watch on TV in the late 60's Sat night, yuk!] until i heard this I'd never, EVER, been a fan of C&W but this song flipped me. Soooo pretty, nice work Dwight.
As a truck driver this was my theme song seemed like everything was true about it always a thousand miles from nowhere thank you for producing this song Thank You Dwight for singing it one hell of a great song for us guys out there on the road all the time

Yes, hell is where it will get you if you do not know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. Country music will not save your soul. 1 John 2:15-17 New Living Translation 15 Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. 16 For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world. 17 And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever. James 4:4 New Living Translation 4 You adulterers! Don’t you realize that friendship with the world makes you an enemy of God? I say it again: If you want to be a friend of the world, you make yourself an enemy of God." Mark 8:36 New Living Translation 36 And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul?
I've never been a big country music fan, I've been a metal head my whole life, but oddly enough, I was born,raised, and still live in the middle of nowhere. That said, Dwight, Alan, and George are legendary to me. Great music, vocals, and meaning. What music should be.
This song reminds me about my wife. It was her favorite song before she lost the battling to cancer, I wish I could change the hands of time, I miss her smiles, she was always there for me and our lovely daughter, and I never miss a moment with her, life could be so unfair most times, there is some pain, I will cry in vain but won’t let you know how I will feel yes, I will miss you to the core! but some times i wonder why bad thing always happen to good people. She’s always in our heart😊

LOVE LOVE HIS MUSIC. I’m a truck driver and love blasting this song when I’m on back country roads. America is so beautiful!! LOVE LOVE Dwight’s songs.💕💕🤠
I have never been into country music. Never listened to it. But this came on the radio at work today. My girl, my love, is moving 1,300 miles away and I'm shaken and scared I'll never see her again. This song just murdered me. I love it.
I found this song in 1983 after my divorce. It looked for it again with the break up with my daughter of 43yrs 😢. Her way... i don't car no more. ❤ Phil, forever. There are too many to have a favorite. This one hits my heart and makes me feel so much better 💓
I probably haven’t listened to this song since 94-95. It literally just popped into my head out of nowhere and had to come listen. I forgot how incredible it is
Got Dwight Yoakam recommended to me in the search. Said, why not, and clicked on the first video I saw, being this. 30 seconds in, already one of my favorite songs.😂
@@lonewolfx499 Not sure but that happened to me. I watched Red Rock West yesterday afteroon and at the end I heard this song. I thought, wow this is cool, I need to add it to my favorites on Spotify. Then I realized I already added that song on 3-15-2022, but totally forget about it, lol
@denalisiomontpellier4064 I have a pretty good memory. Even if I haven't listened to a song in a while, I can still remember the lyrics and melody and what not.
TheRoadhammer379 I actually drive a cab, but I see more of the inside of the car then I do my friends and family. Thanks for the acknowledgement though.
I've never been a big country western fan but when I heard Dwight Yoakam singing this song I am now his fan love his voice I know I've heard him before but I didn't know who I was listening to. And he's easy on the eyes

In memory and respect
If you listen closely to the guitar work and the lyrics
He nailed it

Dont forget Doc Miles in Crank and Crank 2. Oh, and a small roll in the beginning of Wedding Crashers.
Cry Macho....great acting with rooster boi and Clint Eastwood and Eduardo Minett
I ride my motorcycle, alone, through the desert of Arizona, and every time I hear this song it reminds me of those rides.
What's do you mean
WHO'S STILL LISTENING
We Never Left the Classic Country 🎶
Sounds of Dwight Yoakam
I love that haven’t left either
never left still listening since 1977
My mom loved him always called him legs the way he move...love you mamma r.i.p
Me! I’m a 62 year old Long Island boy, just started listening to him to him a few days ago. Loved him in Sling Blade but that’s it! Going down a Dwight rabbit hole today! Really love the songs! His voice is so old school!
“I’ve got heartaches in my pocket,....” Who else can write a line like that? We’ve all had to carry heartaches in our pockets but only one person put those words down. Awesome!
Great observation. Most people don't really get the genius it takes to write a line like that!
Only. Dwight can write songs like this . And sings them. Sooo. Good
And those cruel cruel things that you said....too
Tear stains on my hands
1993 was a good year.
I’m 74 years old and he’s one of my favorites
joe cuddos to you
We had the Best of Music 🎉!
I love it as weĺl just turn the age around please 47
74 and still listening, also, Joe😂
I drove for 45 yrs been retired since 2016. Yet I miss it. I dream that am still driving. God bless everyone on the road💯
I understand. I flew Army helicopters bur now in my 70's, I'm too old. Keep dreaming.

I've never been a fan of Country Music, but I like the voice and style of Dwight Yoakam. This song hit home, with me, when it came out. Yes, I'm still listening in 2024. 🤠🎸🎶
One of my favorite Dwight Yokam songs...

When Country still had soul. This tune never gets old.
No it dosent...saw him in thackerville, ok in 2018 and he did this...it was bad ass!
Agree
Comment of the decade brother if there was such an award i would see to it that you get it......
@@acres90 he's gonna be in thackerville again in September...the 11th of all days. www.winstar.com/event/dwight-yoakam/
So true
He is one of the very BEST SINGERS OF CLASSIC COUNTRY. And he is a terrific guitarist too. 😉
i disagree
about the best singer

Not sure if it’s because if I’m an old retired railroader, but this video never gets old for me! NEVER! And the song is simply amazing!
Hello thanks for your comment and supports, your comments and constant support has brought me this far, keep supporting 💞
@@dwightyoakam669 Yes, and as the switch is thrown, his journey through nowhere only deepens.
@Dwight yoakam you have great balance to be on a train like that
Dwight can act as good as he can sing. Such an amazing talent...
Sling blade, good movie!!
I would agree also. I liked him in Panic Room!
Doyle Hargraves had a band going too.
@@tbiz8459 terrible band 😀
"Im hurtin Linda" doyle
A boy from West Virginia withdrew from The mountains growin' up in Florida. The only thing that took me back home was listening to good old mountain music like this!❤
I'm Sicilian and I've been listening to country music for several years. Unfortunately this type of music is not listened to, it is never broadcast in Italy on the radio, in clubs and on TV, only the usual rap, pop and commercial music, the culture is missing. My favorite artists are Don Williams, George Strait, Marty Robbins, Glen Campbell, Dwight Yoakam, Tom T. Hall, Bobby Bare, Kathy Mattea, Jerry Reed, Jeff Walker. and I like singing this music. I acquired several vinyl records from the era overseas. Who are your favorite country artists?
Love Dwight. I have bruises on my memory....His country music is the best.
Great song......classic country which is fading away..sadly. Dwight is an original and so talented.
This guy has always been the real deal when it comes to country music.
I totally agree. Always loved Dwight. 💖
@@jamiecee4960
Yes. He's definitely the man.👍
Honestly... he's my GOAT.
@@jamiecee4960 i had the privilege of seeing DWIGHT YOAKAM in concert in 93 at a club in Dallas Tx and he was so great and the band was so tight,,ill never forget that night
And Earl Thomas Conley!!!
I'm still listening to this song. I'm 73 and it is one of my favorites.
I dare say, this is the best country song ever recorded. I can't imagine how it could possibly be better...
Hello thanks for your comment and supports, your comments and constant support has brought me this far, keep supporting ❤️.
My beautiful friend from Atlanta made a cassette for me years ago, 90's, because i told her "the only 2 types of music i dont like are Country & Western" [note: Hee Haw was the only thing to watch on TV in the late 60's Sat night, yuk!] until i heard this I'd never, EVER, been a fan of C&W but this song flipped me. Soooo pretty, nice work Dwight.
I sang Dixie is pretty great also check out the one with Buck Owens intro
As a truck driver this was my theme song seemed like everything was true about it always a thousand miles from nowhere thank you for producing this song Thank You Dwight for singing it one hell of a great song for us guys out there on the road all the time
Thanks for the great love and support you show me as a special fan of mine,I hope you won't stop listening to my music (407) 848-2799 that’s my private text number you can text me

Absolutely!
Yes, hell is where it will get you if you do not know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. Country music will not save your soul. 1 John 2:15-17 New Living Translation
15 Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. 16 For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world. 17 And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever.
James 4:4 New Living Translation
4 You adulterers! Don’t you realize that friendship with the world makes you an enemy of God? I say it again: If you want to be a friend of the world, you make yourself an enemy of God."
Mark 8:36 New Living Translation
36 And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul?
I'm 67yo and I think there should be a radio station called all Dwight Yokum all the time
He has his own channel on xm. It's called the Bakersfield sound.
I hear u sister
65 and still enjoy this song, it has describe my last 45 years of my life experiences
I'm 10,000 Miles from Norway. Guitar OWNED this song. Just perfect.
Awesome
I absolutely love this song. Dwight is one of the best and finally getting recognized for it.
The style, the moves, the voice todays country isn’t even comparable to yoakum he is one of a kind, great music!!!
I've never been a big country music fan, I've been a metal head my whole life, but oddly enough, I was born,raised, and still live in the middle of nowhere. That said, Dwight, Alan, and George are legendary to me. Great music, vocals, and meaning. What music should be.
Masterpieces like this never get old or go out of style
True country
True enough 🎉
Iuyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Amen
Soy de Argentina, conocí esta obra de arte por una película. Genial.
A song without an expiration date. Its beautiful today, twenty years ago, and a hundred years from now.
I’m a rock n roller but I’ll always love good music no matter what genre it is! Love DY!
Hello. How are you doing today? Thank you so much for your love and support ❤🎉🎸
Great road song .
This song reminds me about my wife. It was her favorite song before she lost the battling to cancer, I wish I could change the hands of time, I miss her smiles, she was always there for me and our lovely daughter, and I never miss a moment with her, life could be so unfair most times, there is some pain, I will cry in vain but won’t let you know how I will feel yes, I will miss you to the core! but some times i wonder why bad thing always happen to good people. She’s always in our heart😊
Ditto!
True
I'm 68, i will never get tired of Listening to Dwight❤
@cindypaschall5398. Hello, how are you doing it's nice meeting you here.
One of my all-time favorites, you can feel the emotion in his voice.
Hello thanks for your comment and supports, your comments and constant support has brought me this far, keep supporting ❤️.
Back when country music had sustenance. Not just whiskey, drinking problems, hay rides and sitting in a ford barefooted
That's no lie.
✌
And people who could sing.
@@olive3700 Give me a break. There are plenty of people today who can sing. You're just a tired old cliche'.
Sustenance?? I don't think you know what that word means.
I fell in love with his voice the first time I heard him sing this song!!✝️🙏🏻

I have never been into country music. Never listened to it. But this came on the radio at work today.
My girl, my love, is moving 1,300 miles away and I'm shaken and scared I'll never see her again.
This song just murdered me. I love it.
This is timeless country song by Dwight and we need more songs like this on played on country radio today.

Apparently you've never heard of a country singer named Hank Williams Sr.
I found this song in 1983 after my divorce. It looked for it again with the break up with my daughter of 43yrs 😢.
Her way... i don't car no more.
❤ Phil, forever. There are too many to have a favorite. This one hits my heart and makes me feel so much better 💓
Dwight’s the only country singer I need. ❤
Hello Caterina, how are you doing, I hope you're doing great. Am Harry from Denver Colorado, where are you from if you don't mind.😊🍒🌹
Yes indeed!🥰🥰🥰
I probably haven’t listened to this song since 94-95. It literally just popped into my head out of nowhere and had to come listen. I forgot how incredible it is
March 2024, 69 yrs. old, love Dwight's songs still now.❤
Got Dwight Yoakam recommended to me in the search. Said, why not, and clicked on the first video I saw, being this. 30 seconds in, already one of my favorite songs.😂
you'll probably forget about it in less than 1 month
@denalisiomontpellier4064 How so?
@@lonewolfx499 Not sure but that happened to me. I watched Red Rock West yesterday afteroon and at the end I heard this song. I thought, wow this is cool, I need to add it to my favorites on Spotify.
Then I realized I already added that song on 3-15-2022, but totally forget about it, lol
@denalisiomontpellier4064 I have a pretty good memory. Even if I haven't listened to a song in a while, I can still remember the lyrics and melody and what not.
30 years on! It just never gets old! He was at the top of his game here
I drive for a living, and songs like this paint a perfect picture of the feeling of loneliness being on the road brings.
Joshua Brooks , I know you ain't lying, fellow gearjammer, and this is an extraordinary road tune.
TheRoadhammer379 I actually drive a cab, but I see more of the inside of the car then I do my friends and family. Thanks for the acknowledgement though.
Keep the pedal to the metal and keep on trucking my friends
Well, atleast you have backpage escorts to keep you company.
Patrick Crotsley not really
Jan 29, 2025 and this sounds just as good as it did when it came out 32 years ago.
I've never been a big country western fan but when I heard Dwight Yoakam singing this song I am now his fan love his voice I know I've heard him before but I didn't know who I was listening to. And he's easy on the eyes
