David Allen Coe: The Perfect Couontry and Western Song

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkKn5HrKgHQ

Well, I was drunk the day my mom got out of prison
And I went to pick her up in the rain
But before I could get to the station in my pickup truck
She got run over by a damned old train

“No, you have not written the perfect country and western song. There is nothing here about pickups, or trains, or mama, or prison... or gittin’ DRUNK!!”

Ha, ha, that’s classic! I love country music, although not what it is now. Many of my favorites are from the early 90s.

Prop Me Up Beside the Jukebox if I Die

The More You Drink, the Better I Look

The Queen of My Double-wide Trailer

Ain’t Nothin’ Wrong With the Radio

T-R-O-U-B-L-E

This Killin’ Time is Killin’ Me

A Better Class of Loser

There’s Somethin’ Women Love About a Pickup Man

Almost anything by Dwight Yoakum and Brooks & Dunn
