He is the personification of what Country Western music really was.
Why can't we have singers like this anymore ! Music has changed for the worse it's sad.
This always sounds best coming out of a single speaker in Dad's old pickup. R.I.P. Merle Haggard
BEST COUNTRY SINGER TO EVER STEP ON A STAGE! PURE CLASS! RIP MR HAG WE LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU!💜🙏
amen
You got it Robby,honest singing
This sends Chills down my spine
This was my dad's faverat I'm 60 years old I can still remember my dad playing Merle on Sunday morning we had a stero cabnet he would wake us up for breakfast nobody could fix biscuits and gravy like him and mom would fix squreal gravey and biscuits that was dillioshes
Rest in Peace, Sid my sweet grandfather I miss you so much 7 months without you. My heart still hurts so much..
Still here listening in Ireland 2023. A classic.
No one else could do this song justice ! One of the greats in country music!
You are still the Very Best Merle, R.I.P. Mr Gorgeous. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
If there was ever a better country singer than merle I never heard them
Such a powerful song. I'm glad this was captured live for all to see how it's done.
Amen
My Favorite Song of
Mr Merle Haggard
I always thought he had one of the best voices in country........sweet and beautiful.....but soulful........RIP
I know very little about Merle Haggard and had never heard this song until today, the day of his death. I've listened to it four times in a row and have wept each time.
+Josh Fitzgerald You are feeling the power and the honesty of his music. I am weeping too.
Josh Fitzgerald - please learn about Merle , unbelievable, he wrote this about him being in San quition
That’s kinda gay, honestly.
Welcome to the greatest country artist to ever walk the face of this earth
I grew up listening to this kind of music ,I'm glad I was here to witness it because today's music is awful.
Without a doubt one of the greatest songs, not just country, ever written. I know "best country songs ever" is always subjective, but I've checked multiple lists. How is this song not even on any list? Maybe it's not everybody's #1, but it's got to be on every list somewhere. The beautiful, soulful voice of Merle Haggard can never be duplicated. The world lost a great singer and performer when Merle passed away. Country music today cannot hold a candle to the songs of older country, with a few exceptions I'll admit. RIP Mr. Haggard.
My son Steve who loved to play guitar and Merle's songs passed from the rare disease CJD within a couple of months of Merle. Know they are somewhere singing and playing!!
I’m sorry for your loss, My son had terminal cancer at 19...... Thank the good Lord for music....
Folks, if there is a performer you want to see in concert...just do it. Time goes by, and I kept thinking that Merle, Johnny Cash, Ray Charles, BB King and others could wait till "the next time".
RIP Hag!
drbombay91765 - not me brother , saw him 22 times , met 2 tines , 1 pic !!!!
Another of the greats gone too soon. Country music has lost one of it's most iconic and influential artists of the past 50 years. Farewell Merle, you began as an outlaw but today you got your wings. Fly high, and thanks for the memories.
MH nails it every time. Great singer.
A great man. Merle put American life into song and left such a legacy to the world. His songs and lyrics will continue to influence millions of people, warm their hearts, make them laugh or make them cry, make them think, help them understand- year after year after year. Thank you, Merle.
That last note he sings is his best ever...wow!
A rather appropriate song to listen to on this day.
Rest well Sir!
The Bakersfield troubadour died yesterday he was and all always will be the greatest singer, songwriter of America's working man.
R.I.P. Merle Haggard..
+Barbara Lafleur He will be missed!! :(
the first cassette tape I ever had was his greatest hits. i was raised on this man. he's one of the best in the business. there will never be another Hag
We lost a giant today, R.I.P @merlehaggard
amen that....
Just finished a Merle music marathon, he was truly awesome. Been a fan since his early days and thankful for the all the wonderful lyrics he put to song...
AMEN
+Don Greenwood He was indeed. :(
Rip
Merle Haggard: Another of our greatest gone but never to be forgotten.
I'm from Tulsa and I just gotta believe Bob Wills met him at the gate...R.I.P. Merle...What a great run you had...
+Steve Terrill I thought Wills was Brisbane bop. I guess for a while.
+Steve Terrill I loved Merle and always wished him only the best, but please realize that there is just as much of a chance (via the evidence) of him meeting Bob Willis ar a gate or being with a lord or with angels as there is of dead Muslims (or Jews or Hindus) being in paradise. It's all good, though, since Merle would not have wished to have had to bow to any of the 'deities' for ever & ever throughout eternity. RIP, Merle. You lived life under your own honest terms.
Merle would have treasured the inevitable of every knee, including his, bowing, with overwhelming gratitude to the King of the Universe, Jesus Christ. "Whosoever is willing" may come. You, me, anyone who disavows self as king and inclines self to the only true God Who loves Him.
Hugh Merle Haggard fan, Love sing me back home before I die, miss Haggard He was one of a kind God Love him
one of the high honors of my life was getting to meet & shake hands with Merle. One of America's greatest contributions to modern music.
Lucky You. I'm 66 & Hoping to go see
Noel Lee & Ben in concert. If They ever come to Marksville, La.
i cant even decribe how emotional this song is 😢
You'll be greatly missed Mr.Merle Haggard!!
Beautiful country song and what a talent. RIP

No country artists had a voice and emotion like Merle.... Writer, voice. feeling. Damm... he had it all and looked the part.
You are still the best , R.I.P. sir, 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
R.I.P Merle Haggare you were the best
Great musician and great composer.... and a decent man and father
Just like a stream softly flowing..... Wonderful!
There are many versions of this on RUclips. A great, sad song and his unique, soulful voice. His ex-wife, Bonnie, singing backup. It is easy to how much it affected her.
I will miss you and your wonderful music. I will forever love your voice. RIP Mr. Merle Haggard.
Hopefully , we can get the Country music industry turned around before we lose any more Country Greats ...
I am blessed by the grace of God to have met the man in person He will always be a legend now and forever ,, Prayers for all the friends and especially his family of friends. As always Joanne
cant get enough of this man❤
Now Heaven has swinging doors. RIP Hag. You are missed sir.

Don't you just find yourself wishing some people could stay forever? Devastating. The world is so much poorer. RIP ~ Merle.
The best there was and the best there ever will be. Seen him in Biloxi, MS towards the end of 2015 and we could tell he was sick and coughing then. Never got over it. Gonna miss him.
