Saddest song of all time

Actually, this is the second saddest song of all time. I'll post the saddest tomorrow.

Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen were kind of well known in the late '60s/'70s when it was in vogue for big rock bands to "go country" (See the Stones, Byrds, Kinks, etc.) Cody was always country, though, and not just country but honky f'n tonk.

Now he's old, so it's tough to imagine what he was like in his prime. When you listen to this song, picture someone who looks like Lemmy from Motorhead if he was from Oklahoma.
