Written while serving time for almost two years, waiting on his parole, and when he got it, first thing he did was go and record this song.
Covers:
George Strait [Bob Dylan in The Philosophy Of Modern Song about this cover: songs like this can be covered but never really owned by anyone else; Paychecks drinking partner George Jones knew damn well not to even think about approaching this one]
