I always hated how she added the stupid bit in parentheses to the title.

Martina’s version is okay but Lynn Anderson’s version was far superior, both vocally and the arrangement and instrumentation (this song was made for the trappings of “the Nashville Sound”.

For an interesting alternate take, listen to the recording of the song by the song’s writer , Joe South
