    Thank your brother for his service and thank you for your patriotism. My father served in W W II, my brother in Vietnam era and my current man in the Navy on the USS Kitty hawk during Vietnam. My former husband was a 100% disabled vet and died of his disability from US Army, 67-69. I have great respect for our country and flag and for all those who sacrificed to keep us safe. God bless the USA.🙏

    Great reaction. I'm late to view this sceez, but I love your content. All this recent phenomena in American pop culture music got me onto this reaction. The Try That In A Small Town / Rich Men North of Richmond buzz got me remembering Merle Haggard songs; messages and music from the early 70s. You know that, during this time in country music history his sound was different and refreshing. Another one to definitely check out is "Working Man Blues" from the same era. There is a live version with an instrumental jam session built into it available here on RUclips. It is said that George Jones once abandoned on of his own tour dates to go see the Hag perform!

    It's funny that you should mention basketball. I did my service in the Navy back in 91 in the Gulf. And I'm happy to report to you, on our return home, our ship's basketball team spanked the team from a rather large university in Australia! So, years later, it was no surprise to me, during the Olympics, when the USA "dream-team" owned the court! Also, from me, thank your brother for his service! Much love, Tim 😄

    I FUCKIN LOVE YOU! I'm glad we're on the same team. We ain't the same race, we grew up far from each other, I don't care about your religion, or your politics. I don't know you and you don't know me but our blood is the same red, white and blue. God bless your brother. I will pray for him. I was catastrophically injured serving my community so I know a little of he might be going through. Peace my little brother. You're an inspiration to this old(er) guy. 😎

    Merle has a ton of great stuff. I've covered at least three of his songs in a band I was in for quite a long time. I once got to see him perform from 6 feet away and had eye contact and a bit of conversation back and forth with him during the show. What a blast. He is a master storyteller and actually a really good guitar player although he's just playing rhythm on this one.
    Check out Mama Tried. You'd love it.

    My father was a big fan of country music and Meryl Haggard and Jonny Cash were two of his favorites. I think he must have owned almost every record album they released. lol This song was one of his favorites and became one of mine because I grew up hearing it played so often, you just might like it as well, Skeez "Meryl Haggard - Long Black Limousine [Live from Austin, TX]"

    I am right there with you. God Bless your Brother for his Service. My Grandfather served in WWII, My Uncle Served in Vietnam, I Served in Desert Storm, and My Son Served in Syria. We believe in people's rights to have their own opinions and ideas and stand up to use their 1st amendment rights to voice them, but when they blame the Country, the soldiers, etc. instead of the Politicians, mainstream media, or leaders that keep us looking at each other instead of at them. it's like putting RED ants and Black ants in the same jar. Left alone the live peacefully, but if you shake the jar...They band up by color and kill one another instead of the one who shook the jar!. Love ya man! I'm looking outside the JAr!

    Johnny Cash used to go to prisons & sing for the inmates sometimes. When Merle Haggard was in prison, Johnny played the prison Merle was in. Merle Haggard decided that's what he wanted to do was sing & play guitar! And I'll be damned if he do it!! Set his life down a different road!! Sometimes when we question God, we don't know the grand schemes he has planned!! 🙏💯

    That's the reason we have an immigration " problem". Because there's no better country on this planet. Ain't nobody walking from Alabama to Venezuela to live there. That American flag means so many things to so many people all over the world. Mostly it means hope to millions. It's easy to look around and see changes happening all over the place. Nothing ever stays the same. But the USA is still the greatest country in the world. If you ever have to leave america you can't wait to get home.

    @BILLYMORGAN1971 Год назад

    You should be aware that Merle is somewhat of a bs artist. I'm not saying he didn't believe in the things he said but rather his motivations were somewhat more financial. In his own words he noticed some people were protesting the Vietnam war whilst others were all for it so he wrote a couple of songs to tap the latter market. The other one was Okie From Muskogee, a song about being anti drug(marijuana specifically). Truth is the guy did as much drugs as Keef Richards. So with a grain of salt....

  • @arlenyoungbloodjr5558
    @arlenyoungbloodjr5558 Год назад

    Great reaction but this song was about protesters of the Vietnam war. However he was a very liberal guy and was more in tune with the protesters than this song portraits. This song he regrets releasing because it was against his real feelings. Money is money I guess.
