What is your favorite song that actually tells a story?

I admit I saw this elsewhere but I thought it might be a good thing to put here because honestly I look and listen to songs people post. I am always entertained and it opens my mind to many different avenues of musical tastes I have not known before. I hope ones like this column.

I’ve always loved boomer tunes, so there’s two...three in mind now. Tennessee Waltz, and It’s My Party (which has a sequel, I think: Judy’s Turn To Cry).

“foggy dew”
Irish ballad
Siena’s O’Connor version is the best

In the southern part of Texas, east and west of El Paso
Where the mighty Franklin Mountains guard the trail to Mexico
There's a new-made widow crying and a hearse a-rollin' slow
I guess that devil's passed this way again.
There's a lathered sorrel stallion running through the Joshua trees
And a young man in the saddle with his coat tails in the breeze.
He's got a six gun on his right hip and a rifle at his knees
And he's dealing in a game that he can't win. [Chorus:]
Poor Billy Bonney, you're only 21,
Pat Garrett's got your name on every bullet in his gun.
Each notch carved on your six gun
Has a bloody tale to tell.
You're a mile ahead of Garrett and a step outside of Hell.
Charlie Daniels painted brilliant images with words.

Finally! Dang, I wanted to post this. Incredible ballad.
Then there is “Dickens’Dublin (The Palace)
Siegfried Fietz singt ‘Von guten Mächten wunderbar geborgen’
If you know the story behind this hauntingly beautiful,
painfully bittersweet song, you’ll be forever committed to
the study of Dietrich Bonhoeffer—one of the greatest anti-
Nazi heroes of WW2.
