Great song writer Wrote what I consider one of the best country songs ever 2nd only to what I consider the best country song of all time, Blue Yodel number 8. By the way Blue Yodel 9 is also right up there Classics Even Jerry Garcia covered a blue yodel Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

Which song? I am not a music person but I will listen to it if you think it is your 2nd favorite song? At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

Bear in mind I'm not a fan of modern country music I'm a huge fan of roots country music such as Jimmy Rogers that wrote all the Blue Yodels back in the 1930's I love Nas X song because to me its a homage to the roots of the genre that I truly love I hear a touch of blues in Old Town Rd that made Jimmy Rodgers so brilliant borrowing from the blues to create his country blues songs that he called his blue yodels Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

I know that song and it is good. For some reason I just assumed it was a new cover of an old song. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

It does sound old, kind of something the great Robert Johnson would write. Here is what I consider the benchmark performance of the 1930 Jimmy Rodgers classic, Blue Yodel Number 8 also know as the Mule Skinner blues This is a bluegrass version by the great Dolly Parton and the late great Bill Monroe Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |
