I could watch classic country clips all day long, so basically this post was an excuse to celebrate the songs of Merle Haggard for a moment and to drift through a series of a YouTube links on company time. Totally worth it.

“Mama Tried”:

Two additional tracks by the legendary country and western singer below the cut.

“Fightin’ Side of Me”:

“(All My Friends Are Gonna Be) Strangers”:

This article appears in Apr 5-11, 2012.
