You don't seem to realise that it is isn't actually one of his songs....

It goes way back, 40s or so. One of the best known versions is



Hmmm. I assumed that and he did lots of covers, but I wasn’t sure, and the Cash version is decent. But . . .

1) We had about ten covers during the covers portion of the contest that were probably the dumbest song by the artist performing them, so “dumb” and “cover” aren’t mutually exclusive, and . . .

2) This wasn’t even in there — it was in the “favo(u)rite song” portion. This? Of all the great tunes he did? Or others did? And of all his covers? This relatively pedestrian thing?

I mean I’d literally take anything off his GH record — which this isn’t on — over this, including Willie And The Hand Jive. And they’d all smoke Snow Patrol.

Not this though. IMO obviously.
