About Beth Burgess
Expertise
I can answer just about any question about lyrics or the artists who recorded the songs--80s and 90s country especially. I don't watch many new videos, but the older the video question, the more likely I am to be able to answer it.

Experience
I've been a country music fan for all of my 25 years! I somehow have a knack for being able to remember all the words to all the songs (and who sang them for the most part) even though I can't carry a tune to save my life!

Education/Credentials
I'm currently enrolled in law school (so if I can't remember an answer off the top of my head, I have excellent research skills!)

Country Music - mid-90's music video


Expert: Beth Burgess - 10/24/2009

Question
I'm looking for a video that was out around the same time as Chattahoochee. It's got a man in a white hat sitting at the bottom of a flight of stairs. The lyrics say something about stairs, but I don't remember what they were.

Answer
Hi Jess!  I'm not sure, but I think the song you may be looking for is Mark Chesnutt's "Brother Jukebox," which was released in 1991.  (Alan Jackson's "Chattahoochee" was released in 1993, but both videos were popular and played for quite some time thereafter.)  In the video for "Brother Jukebox," Mark is wearing a white hat the entire time, and around the one and a half minute mark, he goes home, takes his hat off and climbs the stairs (to the lyrics "I go home and I climb that old stairway..."); then he comes back down the stairs and sits down.  Hopefully this is what you were looking for!

Artist: Mark Chesnutt
Song: Brother Jukebox

Brother Jukebox...sister wine
Mother freedom...father of time
Since she left me by myself
You’re the only family I’ve got left

I go down to that same old cafe
Where I try to wash my troubles away
I’m still down and I’m still all alone
But it beats stayin’ home all night long

Brother Jukebox...sister wine
Mother freedom...father of time
Since she left me by myself
You’re the only family I’ve got left

I go home and I climb that old stairway
And I tell myself "Tomorrow’s a new day"
But I know I’ll just go down again
And spend my time with my new next-of-kin

Brother Jukebox...sister wine
Mother freedom...father of time
Since she left me by myself
You’re the only family I’ve got left
