As I mentioned, some songs I don't remember the origin of, but I remember this one vividly! I was leaning on the counter in the studio kitchen, and we were discussing a mutual friend of ours from the great state of Kentucky. I said "you know how they are....that's Kentucky". I have Kentuckian in my blood, and I can say that there can sometimes be a certain stubborness, hardheadedness, or hearty independence, that comes out from time to time, and that's what I blame it on! Reminds me of some other bluegrassers from Kentucky, like Bill Monroe, and Sonny Osborne who definitely followed their own drummer.
Lorraine Jordan and Carolina Road had a hit with this one, and we won SPBGMA song of the year with it.
