The singer's last album for the label before his move to MCA, it contains, among others, a cover of Bruce Springsteen's "I'm on Fire" and a version of Kris Kristofferson's "Living Legend", which would be recorded by The Highwaymen in 1990, on Highwayman 2. Sweet Mother Texas failed to chart, marking the end of Jennings' twenty-year stay at RCA.
