This song isn't on "We Don't Have Each Other", but it was on a collaborated album of various artists.
I believe it was said somewhere that this was one of Soupy's earliest songs for the Aaron West project.
Originally, he plays this on the ukelele, but it can be played regularly on a standard guitar tuning, but I
like to play the uke version more, which you can translate to a regular acoustic.
