It only takes a quick search to find your answer. Probably faster than posting on the Org. The longest version is 6:31.
Thanks for that.
And let me say, I wish there was a very cool longer version of it. It's such a great track. Oddly the "Extended Mix" on the UK 12" is the same version as the Make It Big album. Just over 6 minutes.

There's a version released only in Japan on a maxi single, but it's shorter than the album version.
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 the original version that was produced by Jerry Wexler.

Yep. I'm surprised they put that out at all, because they totally redid the song after Wexler had a go at it. I'm glad they did.
Even a man who had accomplished as much as Wexler couldn't bring out the best in that song like George could. It's a good lesson in an artist trusting himself and his vision.

Me too. It is. Obviously, I was listening to a fan mix.
