Probably because it was originally a hit for Bobbie Gentry in the early 70's. Reba's was recorded much more recently and therefor more known to younger people today, and yet it still comes in 2nd place to anyone who heard the original. No, thats not true. Reba's doesn't even register with anyone who has heard Bobbie's version, there's just no point in listening to a copy when you've heard the best.

It's amusing that there aren't any comments under the writer and original singer. I guess Reba really did end up owning it.

@Letmein I only remember Bobbie singing it when she released it, she wrote it to, so that is who owns it.
