  • oooo maybe its been 40 ;-)

    

  • I'm a hipneck! lol Have listened to this son for at least 30 years and this has got to be the best. I love Ray Wylie!!

  • Livin' in Dallas for 20 years and seeing Ray Wylie at some shows pissed out of his mind on who knows what, he can maked up all sorts of shit about this song...It is his joy to pull motherfucker's legs sometimes...I like this version as well as any..Who Knows and Who really care. I just know that my Freshman year in 1975 in College my frat brother's and I got drunk as hell on J. Jeff Walker's version...

  • does anyone know what year this was recorded? just curious. 

  • @electricavenue109 I believe it was 2001 at Jerry Jeff's Birthday Bash

  • "Did ya get the beer?" - A man of proper priorities. :)

  • @mollysue66

    What's funny is a lot of folks don't think there can be any such animal!

  • I love these ol' boys. They are the heart and soul of my favorite music in the world. Good times!

  • I remember these days...... I live at the lazy H in red river.... Boy the twitty boys knew hall to party... Ray played for 200 and all the ripple he could drink.

  • great beer drinkn stories!!!!

  • I don't care who you are, this is funny!!!

  • Hey Ray Wylie!!! Always makes me laugh when I watch this video.... But, are you sure it was Red River New Mexico???? Cause it sounds like you've been to Red Deer , Alberta Canada ( Same shit different place)...Good Ol Rednecks........

  • @DougMPC Red Deer Alta.... haha, ain't that the truth!

  • great storyteller and great songwriter, RWH. keep 'em comin'.

  • haw haw haw that's some funny shit right there.. I don't care WHO you are! ; )

    Thanks for that...does my hippie-Tex heart good to hear it!

  • Used to go to the Mother Lode Saloon in Red River & remember the locals saying that he wrote that song while there.

  • i love this song on that 70s show lol

  • I heard this story 1st hand from Chip McElroy, who was there.

  • I don't know what it really was when Ray Wylie was in Red River -- it is now the Mother Lode and Bull of the Woods. Just before New Years, Mother Lode had a helluva band playing there. Just a bunch of Cowboys and Ski Patrol there now. I love the place. Saw Ray Wylie in a bar in Norman OK in the 80's, he played to a packed bar of probably 80 people ... I remember him doing "Long Black Veil" ... she walks these hills in a long black veil ...

  • Of course it was a stab at the rednecks that hadn't fully converted yet - Willie did it on the pilot episode of Austin City Limits and the entire band could barely contain themselves - it was awesome.

  • I remember when Ray Wilie Hubbard and the Cowboy Twinkies Consisted of him and Buffalo playing for the door at the Rubaiyat.

  • LOL most not of been any of the Red Necks i knew or you would be still shitten teeth!

  • I was at Water Aerobics today (Colorado), and the last 'stretches' are done up against the pool wall. Suddenly, the swim coach yelled "Up against the wall", and then proceeded to sing this song. We all laughed so hard, we almost drowned. I've never heard the song, so came

    here to 'experience it' for the first time.

    THANK YOU! Five-Star GREAT! Great, Great Great!

  • I always really liked this song and kind of suspected it was written as a joke about rednecks. Irony? whats irony?

    The story is great, and the tellin even better. Reminds me of Willy talking about "Me and Paul". Ray Wiley is one funny cosmic hippy cowboy, and he seems like he really lived it.

  • Hubbard wrote this as a joke about country music. Ironically, it was the stepping stone that started his fame!.

  • Saw him a week ago in Kerrville Texas. pretty good show.

  • Ray Wylie Hubbard and Jerry Jeff are true Texas.

  • LMAO

  • We used to warm up for all these Outllaws. This is great! Austin piano-picker.

  • Yeah I grew up in San Antonio and loved Jerry Jeff.

  • Ray Wylie can sure spin a yarn I reckon. Man I love a good storyteller.

  • If you think thsi story is a great American classic....you might be a redneck!

  • What if you just like to sing it when you're drunk

  • Ray Wylie is one of the best and funniest storytellers I've ever had the pleasure to see live. Visit his MySpace page if you want to see an animated version of another great Ray Wylie story.
