"(Think About) A Lullabye" is the first single and video release from the album. It is my favorite song from the album. Written at the request of Teresa Haggard for a child of theirs that passed on. It's Merle at his tender best. "I'm Still Your Daddy" features Mrs. Haggard and two of Merle's children, Ben and Jenessa. "Proud To Be Your Old Man" is a bubbly upbeat song that I will count as one of Merle's classics in the years to come. "I Might Be Over The Hill.. But You Make Growing Old Quite A Thrill, So Promenade And Take Me By The Hand.. You Make Me Proud To Be Your Old Man." "Bareback" is an upbeat Texas swing song, very much in the style of Bob Wills, who Merle has always idolized. "Crazy Moon" is what we who used to be so into the country line dancing craze... a cha cha song. It's soft and has an awesome Tex-Mex soft instrumental backing. Song List
