Bounce has shown Gene performing this on Soul Train several times.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

That's hard to do since Bounce shows the same 15 or so episodes over and over. razz

I remember staying up late waiting for Gene Chandler to sing this on the Midnight Special. Well I didn't make it, fell asleep but woke in just in time to catch the last minute or so. Love this song!!!

Do you remember lying in bed
