Turnpike troubadours: The bird hunters

The covey took wing
There were shotguns a-singin'
A pointing dog down in the old logging road
Danny got three and looked back grinning
I fumbled and tried to reload
The country was cold with the sun westward sinking
It's good to be back in this place
With my hands around a Belgian made Browning
My mind on the lines of her face

I have the video of that live at Red Rocks in May, it made the hair on back of my neck stand up.

So I'll meet you at the bottom, if there really is one
They always told me "When you hit it, you'll know it"
But I've been falling so long, it's like gravity's gone
And I'm just floating

But skeletons ain't got nowhere to stick their money

Nobody makes britches that size

George Straight "Say Yes or No"

Twenty years together and you still get to me

In my case? "forty five years together and you still get to me"

Actually, the whole song is pretty dang good, but I’ll go with these lines:

There's a lady who's sure
All that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for

No doubt. Played at my best friends funeral 38 years ago with out the lyrics. He was 17. Special place in my heart for that one. See you again some day Jr.

Man, Max Stalling is a one hell of a songwriter. I always loved that line about glancing back over his shoulder.

The Pila Song Lyrics
The wind was hot and the sun was hard
I was beat and my mare was tired
And the fence line I was riding stretched forever
My mind drifted off and back
To Carmella and her heart of black
And the things that she'd said to me yesterday
So when the boss sent me out checking fences
I was glad cause I knew that it meant
That I could spend some time out all alone

Max is just flat awesome.

If you like story tellers, check out Tom Russell’s Gallo Del Cielo, and Sky Above Mud Below.

Corn Lund, and Slaide Cleaves are good ones too.

Mama, take this badge off of me
I can't use it anymore
It's gettin' dark, too dark to see
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door

Mama, put my guns in the ground
I can't shoot them anymore
That long black cloud is comin' down
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door

That song was played at one of my police officer buddies funerals and it **** near kills me every time I hear it now

I think you meant “I’m gonna live forever.” Yes it’s a good one
