An old man kneeling all alone
Plants his flowers in a garden of stone
For seven years now she's been gone
And his devotion is still going strong

Got to give Jerry Jeff Walker some love. My favorite is London Homesick Blues.

So many great songs in this thread, I feel like upvoting almost every post.

I haven’t seen anyone mention John Conlee’s Rose Colored Glasses or Backside of Thirty. Those are up there for me.

In Carrie's case, she has become the best-selling and most awarded country female artist ever. 85 Million records sold and 28 #1's. Don't sleep on Jo Dee Messina. She was the first female country artist to score three multiple-week number-one songs from the same album
