We played this song at my older brothers funeral,its one of the saddest songs ever written,my brother loved it, i hope he is happy now because he battled depression and was very intelligent person,he was reading alot of philosophy and was preparing for his death.I really felt guilty for a long time about his death,but im finally getting to where i can deal with it now,i just live for the moment and appreciate every minute of the day,to anyone that has a sibling or child that has committed suicide i pray that you are able to deal with it and that there is help for those suffering from depression,God bless and wish everyone the best..
This song reaches down into a soul I sometimes doubt is there... & pulls it up into the sunlight.
I discovered it years ago & go back to it religiously when I am feeling blue.
I cry every time I listen to it, but they are happy tears because I think of my family & of my girl, & realise they are still here & so am I,
& I find the strength to put one foot in front of the other & be the man I need to be.
I’m so lucky, & this song reminds me.
Remember when Country would sing to your ears and heart.Give me Patsy,Jones,Rodriguez,Price or Robbins the working man blues and let's go back to thanking GOD,waving the flag and respecting our Constitution.
❤
I know what you mean . My soulmate has been gone since September 17, 2015
Miss you Bob
Merle you were the GOAT, son! Sing this to my beautiful little mama from me when you see her up there! I love you both!
Merle was my brother's favorite country singer and evertime I listen to him I feel like I can hold on to a little piece of him,because I know he has listened to all Merle songs a bunch of times. I miss my brother more than I can put into words. I wish I could fly I would definitely fly to where he is
Thanks Merle for all the memories ❤ ❤
Merle and Blaze are together now. Soon, the luckiest of us will be there with them.
A beautifully written song being sang by a beautifully talented storyteller. RIP HAG. RIP FOLEY.
A beautiful love song. To my departed. See ya soon.
Every time I hear this song, I miss my wife even more.
❤️
🙏🏻
Everytime I listen to this song, I read your comment and cry.
I’m sorry for your loss pard. Hopefully one day you’ll see her again.
How beautiful to have a love that sings to you; what a wonderful gift to find love, however brief, it is never long enough.
Just lost my dog.. I miss him so much.. this song just feels right
Losing a dog goes straight to the soul. ❤
Merle was my Dads favorite singer, and this song really makes me think of him. What I wouldn't do to hear and see you one more time. This song is so hard to listen to, but it reminds me that he isn't far away. Love and miss you pops ❤
Just heard this last night for the first time. Those were my exact thoughts, my dad 👍🏻
Me too
Me three
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MERLE HAGGARD ❤❤❤ YOU CAN FLY NOW. WE ALL MISS YOU.GOD LOVE YA. AND BLESS YOU'RE FAMILY ❤❤❤
I miss this voice
Got to see him a dozen times or so.
What a legend...
JoneseyBhoy check out his sons they kick
Jay Koepke Yes they are very very good and sound much like their dad then has a son that I hope will follow in their shoes I love them all
the 10 who dislike actually have a very difficult time baring the song from past or present pain.
My favorite singer of all. Saw him a bunch of times, my favorite was in '83 ( I was 18 years old) at Billy bob's in Fort Worth stockyards. I was 20' away and eating dinner while Mighty Merle sat in a chair with a guitar and played dinner music.
Love the Hag with all my heart!!!❤️🤠🫶🔥😎 forget about it!!! One of the greats of this era!!!🤠😎❤️❤️🔥🙏
Thanks to my hero for doing Blaze song memorable for both of you. RIP to both
I miss my grandma so much this makes me think of her

Beautiful song Merle Haggard The Legend
That's actually written by another legend, the late Blaze Foley
Sing a song for me in Heaven ...I will see you there one day ..Rest in Peace sweet Merle
Merles up their kickin so much ass
Love you Merle. Miss you so much. All I had to do was hear your voice and it would make me smile. Still does.......... Yeah. I miss you.
This song means so much to me. If you ever loved a women and are separated by distance, you'll understand this song completely. The longing never ends.
Yes.
I remember the first time I heard this song...It was at a HAG show right before this album was released. Great stuff. Album released in 2000 titled, "If I Could Only Fly".
Wow. May your nights be full of all the love and companionship surrounding you now. If I could only fly I would be where I am loved.
Great singer that he was...and make no mistake...he was a great singer...Merle was just singing a song...when Blaze sang it he was singing his life...there's a very big difference.
Just great writing and performance. Life CHANGING for me
Thanks.
Blaze Foley is the writer of this song . Look up his few records he gave to us until he was shot , perfecting a old man from his son who abused him and stole the old man's welfare checks . It happen in Texas, Austin, I believe........ Merle is king with a song called Kern River , but there are hobo song writers out there like Blaze and Towns Van Zandt, you need to listen to , a lot of them had mental issues and did not fit in with music folks , but were song writers up there with the best ....please look them up and listen to these guys...they will break your heart and leave you humble and leave you a better person for doing so...
Hi Joyce, I photographed Blaze's first CD Oval Room and I am remiss how Merle doesn't pay much credit to Blaze for this song but it did put Blaze on the map for which I'm grateful. I like Blaze's version better. And Townes, I got one photo on Live & Obscure and both Blaze and Townes were great friends of mine, more so Blaze. we were like brothers. He let me know we shared the same last name (Fuller) in an embarrassing for me way but it all worked out.
I love this song ❤️❤️🇮🇪🇮🇪
2022 and u still make me cry
Powerful song ❤️❤️💚I think a lot of us in these times feel the same way.. maybe it's just me 🤔
❤
I know I feel this way. Oh if I could go back to the good times.
This is music for the soul...
Wow first I have heard him sing this version my new favorite !!
There is no " I can't" my dear girl
God is with you sweetie.
So Beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Merle
Amo questa canzone!una delle più belle di Merle...😊🥰😍😍😍💘💕💕💕💕
Idk why but it makes me think of my mom she passed may 25,2015
This is a awesome song thank you Hagg 🎸🎸🎸
Written by Blaze Foley, made a hit by Merle.
A Blaze Foley original about leaving his wife.. covered by Merle Haggard. He has the same authenticity playing this as blaze did. What a great cover.
You can fly now, Merle
If you dream about flying, it's supposed to mean you are in a situation you wish to escape.
This comment reminds me so much of how ppl talk in pokemon gameboy games
All vague and deep and unsolicited
Im not tryna talk shit. Im grateful u posted this
A beautiful surprise on My Mix.
Best version of this song
Nah. Not gonna beat Blaze. Maybe not the album version so much. His singing is a lot better on the live version. The best version.

Único e irrepetible el mas grande
Holy crap ! How did i miss this ? written by Blaze Foley check him out !
Thank you. Blaze Foley
The man that's it
How great is this?
Somewhere Boy brought me to this place.
Exactly the way Blaze sang it….
that's how I feel
Almost a year,mama left,it’s rough on daddy 😢
Oh my gawd!!!!!
ya
Blaze Foley !!!!
I miss you my Laurie girl. God I miss you.
Blaze Foley
cool
Blaze Foley the king! Remember the song is his. Arrogant singers sing it as their own. Shame.
Please discontinue your unbelievable idiocy.
Blaze version is best
My Name is Doris Hi
This is Blaze ,ffs
No. It’s Merle doing the cover. I thought the same for a split second. Amazing.
They're all gone now... Willie and Kris are around (thank God) , but after them.. then what?
so true
Good question
I love Merle but Blazes original is better, sorry Merle.
There are earlier versions of Merle doing it that are amazing
I love Merle
He's never sang this awful... was he just awakened from sleep?
Nichols has a great version but I'll have to listen to Foley's.
awful? hes just old
