Content

[edit]

The lead single was "Beer Run (B Double E Double Are You In?)", a duet with Garth Brooks that was also found on his 2001 album Scarecrow.[1] Significant tracks include "50,000 Names", written and originally recorded by Jamie O'Hara as a tribute to fallen soldiers of the Vietnam War, and "Tramp On Your Street", which marks the first time a Billy Joe Shaver song appeared on a Jones album. "What I Didn't Do" had been previously recorded by Steve Wariner.
