Another favorite is "Whiskey River" done by Willie Nelson live on the Willie and Family Live Album. On the same album is Johnny Paycheck doing is signature song: "Take This Job and Shove It" which is another classic, and as it happens seems to go through my head every time I talk to my boss.

Drinking a beer and chewing copenhagen? Damn, that's hard core. I chewed for 10 years and couldn't drink with a chew in. You must swallow a lot of juice.

Patsy Cline's "I Fall to Pieces" can't be beat for emotional expression, vocal quality and lyrics.
