DEAN Posted March 10, 2021 Author Share Posted March 10, 2021 This is depressing. Because it was written by the Carter family. So this is super hardcore country. =================================================== The Carter family version, which is Depression Incarnate. Drunk son, dead mama, THAT'S Country. ================================= Johnny Cash does a peppy version because he was awesome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEAN Posted March 12, 2021 Author Share Posted March 12, 2021 This is a Louvin Brothers song about sucking it up and taking it like a MAN. I assume they recorded this in 1956 because the Carter family recorded this in 1934. =============================== The Carter family recorded this song about sucking it up and taking it like a WOMAN. ================================ Of course this song written in 1874 and first recorded in 1926 by Luther B. Clarke and Blue Ridge Highballers, the first truly great name in country music history. HIGHBALLERS~! They add an extra song at the end because its what you did if its the 1920s and you're a fucking Highballer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
