Default A song for you ma'am

I know you are a country music fan and I'm sure you've heard this one before. I read that country music writer John Prine is ill with the virus and I couldn't recall any songs that he had written so looked on youtube and found his songs and this one that made me laugh the first time I heard it and every time since then. Be sure to listen until the end. That's the good part(not written by Mr. Prine, I think.)

Oh sorry. Used wrong browser. Let me try it again.

Sorry, not sure that will play or not. I use two different browsers. It plays on one, but not the other. I should probably delete one of them. Anyway, what I was trying to let you listen to is a funny song by David Allen Coe which features "the perfect country song" written by Steve Goodman. You might have heard it anyway.

You are SO Thoughtful ~ Kind Hearted & Am Honored To Call U "Friend!"

I not only like Country Music, I AM A Country Music Songwriter with 2 CDs
The Country Lyrics are on * Page 5 of my Website: RUFFIAN333.com

My Other Songs Are PHILOSOPHICAL / Message Type
* Those Are On Page #4 Of The Website

My #1 Significant Song is THE DANCE by Garth Brooks
It exemplifies my life and my own philosophy

'Yes I Could Have Missed The Pain
But I Would Have Had to Miss The Dance'

THE DANCE

Looking back on the memory of
The dance we shared beneath the stars above
For a moment all the world was right
How could I have known you'd ever say goodbye

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain
But I'd have to miss the dance

Holding you I held everything
For a moment wasn't I the king
But if I'd only known how the king would fall
Hey who's to say you know I might have changed it all

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end the way it all would go

Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain
But I'd of had to miss the dance
Yes my life is better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
but I'd of had to miss The Dance
========================================

THE ONE SONG I CANNOT MAKE IT THRU WITHOUT TEARS
Chiseled In Stone By: Vern Gosdend
The 'Stone' Is The Grave Marker

Thanks. I hope you were able to play that. Song is too funny and some good impressions of other country singers by David Allen Coe.

I like all those, but would have to add a few to your list:

Waylon
Willie
Ronnie Millsap
Glen Campbell
George Strait
George Jones
Allison Krause
Alan Jackson
Jennifer Nettles(Sugarland)
Bill Munroe
Ricky Skaggs

and probably many more that I'm not even thinking of.

Patty and I had the great pleasure to see Garth in concert, I believe back in the early 90's. Awesome singer and he puts on an amazing show, one of the best I've ever seen and by comparison, I've seen Paul McCartney in concert twice.
