I was just listening to this song last night...on You Tube looking for stuff by New Riders of the Purple Sage...

and one song led to another...well, you know.

This song is hilarious...

"And it's Up Against the Wall you Redneck Mother,

Mother, who has raised her son so well.

He's thirty-four and drinking in a honky tonk.

Just kicking hippies asses and raising hell."

I think Jerry Jeff Walker did it originally, that's the one I always heard in the bars.

And NRPS also covered it.

I'm still laughing.....

Ray Wylie Hubbarb (who wrote it) telling the story of how it came to be (very funny)

[bowtwi]

That's funny - I thought Merle Haggard did it first. :)

I cruise a lot of youtube too (when I'm not listening to pandora or the worldwide bluegrass internet station).

You're up!

[bfh]

Bowtwi:

I thought it was Haggard too, but maybe it's the

"H is for Haggard" line that's throwing us.

New Song:

We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee

[bfh]

Okay, perhaps a little too esoteric, or perhaps I got a little carried away.

"Okie from Muskogee" by Merle Haggard.

New Song:

Get your motor running

[GeorgeStGeorge]

"Born to Be Wild" Steppenwolf.

Walking through forests of palm tree apartments

George

[bowtwi]

Bungle in the Jungle - Jethro Tull. (We studied Tull in 10th grade Literature - we thought that was the coolest class on earth!)

I knew the Okee from Muskogee too - just didn't get back here to see it or I'd have answered that 'un too.

People say I'm crazy doing what I'm doing

Okay, here's the first and second line.

People say I'm crazy doing what I'm doing.
