Composition [edit]
Rodney Crowell wrote the song while working for Jerry Reed's publishing company. At the time, he was hanging out with noted songwriters Townes Van Zandt, Guy Clark, and Steve Runkle, and wanted to show his own songwriting skill.[ii]
In retrospect, Crowell expresses regret at rhyming "been" with "can" in the lyric "What y'all've seen is what I've been/In that location is zip I could hide from you/Y'all see me ameliorate than I can." Had he written the song after in his career, Crowell says he would have spent time to find a hard rhyme. Crowell marvels when people tell him this song is their favorite of his.[2] Crowell'south version was released on his third (cocky titled) album in 1981.
Crowell wrote the vocal back-to-back with "Song for the Life" (recorded on his debut album Ain't Living Long Like This) in the 1970s and says both are a "project into the future that I later lived through . . . and information technology was exactly like I predicted."[2]
