Classic Country---your favorite Merle Haggard songs?!
Question: Sing me back home.
Answers: Sing me back home.
you ask questions like this to get points?
has to be "mama tried"
(My Friends Are Gonna Be) Strangers, Oakie From Muskogee, and Hungry Eyes
Rambling Fever and Bar In Bakersfield
On Edit: Turning Off A Memory is also one of my favorites but it is so very hard to choose when Merle has had so many great ones.
Almost all of them......I will, however, narrow down my list a bit:
Mama's Hungry Eyes
I Threw away the Rose
Mama Tried
Daddy Frank
The Fugitive
That's the way it was in '51
Pancho & Lefty (with Willie Nelson)
Roots of my Raising
On on...and on.........
Considering ALL the competition, including George Jones, Patsy Cline, all their predessors and those who have followed, I'm about to make a very bold statement:
I honestly think that Merle Haggard is THE greatest thing that EVER happended to country music - ever !!
I would have to say Sing Me Back Home...or The Highway Is My Home
The Legend Of Bonnie And Clyde
