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 - song about Dad


Expert: Beth Burgess - 11/3/2009

Question
In 1997 there was a song being played on the radio, some of the lyrics are I wish I could see him sitting on the porch one more time. It was a male artist. Could you please help me with the name of this song?

Answer
Hi Kathy!  I think that you may be thinking of John Michael Montgomery's "I Miss You A Little."  It was released in 1997.  What a great (sad!) song!  I've included the lyrics and a link to the video for you below.  Hope this helps!

Artist: John Michael Montgomery
Song: I Miss You A Little
Album: What I Do Best

Sometimes a song can touch a nerve
That takes me back to you
When I pick up my old guitar
And I play your favorite tune
Every now and then, some little thing
I've buried comes bubblin' up
And once in a while, you feel close enough to touch

I miss you a little since you've been gone
A few little memories keep hangin' on
I miss you a little, I guess you could say
A little too much, a little too often
A little more every day

When I go by our old house
I pretend that you're still there
Waitin' for me on the porch
But there's just an empty chair
Wish I could see you just one more time
Before I drive away
So I could stop and go inside, and say

I miss you a little since you've been gone
A few little memories keep hangin' on
I miss you a little, I guess you could say
A little too much, a little too often
A little more every day
A little too much, a little too often
A little more every day
