My my late husband bought a 1960 MGA 26 yrs ago. This song reminds me of the history behind the MGA. It originally belonged to a young Naval Officer, who was a fighter pilot. He bought the car to race in the 1600 race scene. He served two tours in Vietnam. On the second tour he was shot down & killed. His car was transferred to his parents barn. The car served my husband well for 4yrs. It's mine now & I often think of that young Naval Officer sitting next to me.
Mine was a 68 mustang fire engine red cragar's all the way around it was 60 series tires in the back. Stock 302 automatic on the floor paid $900 for her the old lady told me her son reenlisted in the army and he sent her a letter and told her to sell it his name wasn't Private Malone but this song reminds me of that day had dust all over it an old one stall garage I took it to the car wash and his thing sparkled and shine like a brand new penny so this song really brings back some good memories every time I hear it I start thinking about trying to find that old lady find her son and thank him for selling that mustang but the house is gone now the Walgreens pharmacy is there on Donald Street their house was the first alley off of Logan first alley and sitting in that old garage is where she sat
Veterans Day is 3 days from now. Thanks to my fellow vets who served their country proudly. I only wish I was young enough to do it all over again. 20 years USAF.

David Ball was so underrated. Love this guys music.
David Ball is like a fine wine, better with age.
While the Private and Corvette may be gone, the dream lives on in this song! Thanks to all who’ve made the ultimate sacrifice 💟
This one should bring tears to your eyes, especially today.
If this doesn't put a knot in your throat ....well , that's best left unsaid . 🤔👍🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Wow if this song doesn't get to you, somethings wrong! I tear up and get shivers down my spine! Great song thanks CountryRoadsTv for posting!
Still has such a crisp voice. Wow. This many years later. Good for him
This song gets to me as I covered my 64 Chevy Impala before going to Vietnam..I was lucky I made it back ...Welcome home Brothers
1st Cavalry ,1970
A truly classic country song. Thank you, David Ball!
Memorial Day 2019...thanks for posting this about the sacrifice our military makes. Love David Ball songs.
That song will always bring tears to my eyes. Definitely a favorite of mine.
Magnificent storytelling, which Ray Charles said was the gift of Country/Western music, presented by a gifted voice. Awesome!
i can't believe how good this guy actually is..quite literally brings tears up for me..
I remembered when this song first came out and I loved it because of the lyrics. David sounds just as good as always.
Still amazing after all these years. Thom Shepherd is a genius!
It is my solemn honor to be the first thumbs up and comment to this fine performance of a very touching memorial song.
Happy Memorial day to all 2019! Giving thanks to all who have served past or present.
WOW.......if this song does not effect you .........rush to the Doctor and have your heart checked. Thanks to all that serve our country. Peace
Mr. Ball,
I don't know if you meant to write this song about my grandfather, but I can say it certainly comes close to what I know of him!

A lot of “thought” generated by these lyrics
Very good. Great show! :)
