This one was written from a line an old preacher friend of my family [Kay Thompson, Jr or Kay Jr as we all called him], nearly always used when he was giving altar call at the close of service. He’d say in his great mountain voice, “If you’re in here tonight & you ain’t got Jesus, well…. you’re just as lost as a ball in high weeds”. This is another song that my fans were forever asking me if I had it on an all gospel CD, and that’s the reason I decided to make a new recording of it here. It first appeared on a CD titled “Songs from the Workbench” circa 2003.
