Perhaps the most Country & Western song of all time:
Peter
Sorry, buddy. The most perfect C&W song was written by Steve Goodman and (unaccredited) John Prine. David Allan Coe explains why it's the perfect C&W song at about 3:05. Enjoy!
Bill, tgo
Of course you could argue that this tune, and specifically the lyrics, are the epitome of Country music.
hehehehe
And I (a great admirer of Steve, John,
and David Allan) would argue that only the final verse is perfect. As to the second one, I would offer this as another example:
Peter (who stands by his "most C&W" ranking of "Parole Board", with the caveat that pretty much
nothing you hear on the radio these days - the stuff both Summerwind & Burnam are mocking -
his remotely C&W)
