Background
The song was co-written with Don Lee. It was backed with "Wishin' I Could Change The Kind Of Fool I've Been" which was also co-written with Lee. It was released on United Artists UA-XW891-Y.[1][2][3] It was done in a similar style to a Merle Haggard song. It tells of a man in Folsom Prison who receives a letter from his mother who has faith that Jesus is there with him in California as he is there with her in Tennessee. The song does have a happy ending.[4]
The single spent six weeks on the US country singles chart, peaking at No. 80 on November 12, 1976.[5][6] It also made the Cashbox charts that year and at one stage in the week ending December 25 it was at No. 16.[7]
