merle haggard

  • Question:-Merle Haggard?
    what is your favorite song by Merle?

    Answer:-I have been a fan of the Hag for many years, and your question is the same as asking which breath did I enjoy the most.
    Merle is THE working man's poet... but in consideration of my mother's hard life, I would have to say Mama Tried.

    Along side M/T I would give you:
    All my friends are going to be Strangers
    Swingin Doors
    The Roots of my raisens (run deep)
    Tulare Dust
    In My next life
    Rainbow Stew
    Big City

    I would ablsolutely love to see him again!

    Pick up his album made for the restuarant Cracker Barrel
    I Love It!

    Any ideas?

    Answer:-You know,I heard the same thing before and I couldn't find anything after looking.The way I understood she was a punk singer and wrote a few country songs because they all lived in Nashville.Pebe Sebert is her mom's name if that helps any.
