This guys ability to combine comedy with genius guitar virtuosity are beyond compare.

3:21 That moment when he runs around the guitar - is genius!

I love his wide eyed, innocent delivery.😂

I first heard this song in my early teens, and I've been a Jim Stafford fan ever since.  Imagine my delight when I found out he's actually an incredible musician.

The man's a pure comedic genius...and a stunning guitarist! And banjo and fiddle player, too. And, oh, he makes me laugh....he has for 50 years. I'm really glad he's with us. Love him!

He's playing without a strap, that's not easy to do, he's a true master he does amazing guitar playing. It's sad that we don't have entertainers like this anymore that I know of that can do comedy and music and pull it off brilliantly.. He's also great classical player. God Bless You Jim.

Jim was a great guitarist who seldom played it straight. On the occasional times when he did listeners were in for a treat.

You're the man Jim. I have been a fan since the 70s. You're one of a kind , Brother! AJ

Jim is delightful. Just a simple, impish look on his face can bring a beautiful laugh. He is a timeless treasure.

My dad introduced me to the brilliance of Mr. Stafford and I have given my sons his albums so more generations can jam to his awesomeness.

Jim Stafford is the only guitarist I've ever seen play two songs at the same time on one guitar. Fantastic musician.

This song is genius.

Had me crying laughing.

Mr. Stafford won't remember this but: In the early 1980's, mom and I were walking the strip. We  reached the crosswalk at Caesar's Palace. We were about to cross where the cars exit and paused when a jeep pulled up.
Mom waved him on. The driver smiled, tilted his head and waved his arm for us to cross. We did. After a few steps in we saw that the driver was the brilliant Jim Stafford!
We giggled and gushed. mom was quite shy and she blushed. He realized that we recognized him a he laughed.
When we reached the front of his jeep mom asked me, "Is he still looking?"
"Yep. And he's smiling big."
"Oh my gosh!"
We passed his jeep and were about to reach the sidewalk, when mom asked me, "Is he still looking?"
I  began to look behind us when she said, "No! Don't look! I'll look."
She did.
"Oh my! He's STILL looking. AND he's still laughing! And he waved to me!"
Every now and then she'd bring it up. A few days before she died in 1995, she brought it up....laughing.
Not an easy thing, for by this time she was in extreme pain.
Thank you Mr. Stafford.

Still makes me laugh my ass off....... and that's a fair chunk o' ass.

I love it when he runs around the guitar

My granddaughter (since about 4 years ago. She's age 12) loves Jim Stafford and Ray Stevens.

A few years back I was an In Home Caregiver,  my client had MS. We constantly entertained each other with this song. One of us would sing the lyrics just out of no where, didnt matter what we had going on. Always made us have to stop and die laughing. God he was fun.😂🤣😂🤣. Thank you Jim Stafford.❤

I love him going around his guitar and the darn thing pretty much stays in one spot!! And playing without a strap!

Me and Daddy driving home from church listening to a.m. radio Singin and Laughing!!
Early 70s great radio.

I had this song memorized in elementary school.  Got me in an ass-load of trouble.  Was just looking at a long-lost cassette tape from the ye olden days and this was the first song.  I knew I just had to find it on the internets.
