Texas has produced an inordinate number of quality songwriters . . . two of them are Lyle Lovett and Robert Earl Keen, Jr. Lovett and Keen were housemates together at Texas A&M, where they honed their songwriting craft and played live, free sessions on the front porch of the house they rented.
Together, they wrote a song about that old front porch. When they became actual recording artists, each one recorded the song on one of their early albums. The interesting thing is that, although the lyrics are the same, they both titled the song differently, played it at different tempos, and sang it with a different emotional mood.
Here is Lovett's version:
