Music Video
A video for the song was taped for the TV series Hee Haw, on which Owens was a co-host. The video is set in a wild west town, and during the musical bridge the song's main theme – a handsome stranger, tall and dressed in black clothing, stealing the heart of a young man's girlfriend and the woman riding off with him – is played out, said incident happening as Owens (cast as the protagonist) and the woman are walking out of a saloon. The video has since aired on Great American Country and CMT.
gollark: Apparently I have 17GB of games, because I play sensible games which do not use half my disk for textures.
gollark: I was foolish and only bought a 120GB disk for my laptop, so most of my stuff can only fit on my server(s).
gollark: I have a lot of big `node_modules` folders, 52GB of random media (TV shows, some youtubers' videos, sort of thing), random assorted archiving, a gigabyte or so in ebooks, 600MB of storage used on my personal notes wiki (which contains images and occasional videos and whatnot), 2GB of music, and 1GB of memes.
gollark: I'm limited in storage capacity, but I do use quite a lot, and not only on games.
gollark: Yes.
