and someone who can't stand Country and western music, it has always frightened me that the Stones could have been one of the greatest country bands in history if they wanted to be. I have always loved the song in the OP.

Oh well, you known what they say, The Blues and Country & Western had a baby and they called it Rock and Roll.
