Mac Davis is perhaps best known for writing In The Ghetto which Elvis made into a big hit.

Beginning To Feel The Pain was a song that I remembered fondly from the 70s though I never heard it for years afterwards. The opening lines and the refrain were what particularly stuck with me.

I couldn’t find the song on You Tube when I first delved into that Pandora’s Box. Someone’s put it up there now though.

In hindsight it tips over a bit into schmaltz with the strings towards the end.
