Merle Haggard, Toby Keith, Willie Nelson - Mama Tried

[AmerkFlack]

Toby always sounds good.

[SantoroT2]

Regardless of what anyone says about him, Toby Keith sounded great. Thumbs up to Toby, Willie, and Merle for a great performance.

[captainshitto]

THIS MAKES ME WANT TO MASTURBATE



[ElderedAmbrose]

Goes faster and faster.. I think it's the bass-player's fault?

[Baptistnomore]

Merle looks a bit like Hank in the shades.

[weaverfever55]

that dude toby really dont cut the mus-turd,with real talented song writers,proven here,

[MSFOXYBOYNO1]

Willie is my main man!!!.

[steptorand]

Willie and Toby, not exactly on the same side of the fence politically, but this just goes to show ya that music trumps politics.

[RatBastardCulhane]

Standing Ovation, Tears of Patriotism~!!!

It doesn't get any better than this...~!!!!

[osmarnelson]

this song is good with willie nelson and merle haggard

[trustinstinct]

Thanks for displaying how much Toby Keith sucks. peace and god bless Merle.

Willie you know better than that ! caught you in a bit of a tall one there bud.

[unknownkingdom]

I'm not much of a fan of Toby Keith or new country. However, I can't lie -- He has a great voice for this song and sounds very good here. He should play this kind song more often.

[tobycleo]

"Jim Croce" does a good cover of mama tried, that many havent heard. its on youtube also..

[tomfbake]

@austinaProductions toby doesn't suck. he has talent that he refuses to consistently use. it's sad. he could be so much better if he would stop trying to be like most of nashville today. i only wish that he would use his talents.

[gutti88]

@tomfbake hi

i am from austria so i dont know what you mean with "like nashville. "

can u explain it to me?

pls.

greets martin

[tomfbake]

@gutti88 i mean that toby tries too much to be like blake shelton, taylor swift and others by writing songs about love. he should be more like willie nelson, merle haggard, (the early) george strait and alan jackson who write songs about having a good time or wandering or "mama tried"

[jwiwood]

Raised in two genres. country and western. lol. Merle was always my fav. >love his voice

[TheManolito80]

jajajajajajaja dedico esta cancion,a todos los compas y compes del norte sur este y oeste jojojojo donde anda mi vaca pa montarlaaaaaaaaaa yiiiiiiiijaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!­! este es el sound trac de la pelicula "los extraños"

[austinaProductions]

toby keith! toby keith? o my god!!!!! he sucks what a disscrase to reeaalll country music not taylor swift or brad paisley. willie is my cuz blelive me or not i dont give a fuck..........................­.... willie merle both hanks johnny those are real country artists yea!!!

[birdebyrd]

playin on stage with Merle probably gave Toby a stiffy

[sidney0676]

how could this have some dislikes!!!!

[justcorylee]

Merle is a legend for a reason. Toby is one of the few new "country" artist that I like, but he doesn't compare to Merle. There is a lot more to singing a song than acting cool and being twangy

[fedjegutten]

Thumbs up if you love country music :D

[Stormclouds777]

I LOVED this performance! You cant go wrong with Merle, and Toby did a great job too! The only thing I didnt like was Toby looked retarded chewing that freaking gum.

[58oldcruiser]

Merle, you still got it.



[cribchicklet]

Happy Birthday Toby!!!

[ghostofhank]

I just did a cover of this, check it out if you get a chance. One of my all time favorites. - Ghost of Hank

[ORYGUNLADY]

what a great group!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[cribchicklet]

What a great, song by 2 great country boys!!!

[tyza98]

i got this song from the movie 'the strangers'

[casualtySR]

real nice, you guys should listen to the Grateful Dead's cover if you are wanting some fancy pickin on this tune.

[UTubeMeTubeWeTube]

Merle is like a fine wine, he's sounding even better as he gets older! Incredible. And great job by Toby Keith on the high harmony. I'll never understand why this kind of old school country doesn't get any airplay anymore.

[Dragonstorm787]

I'm not really what one would call a fan of country music, but I can definitely appreciate a great ballad like this.

I only have one problem with it though...it's too darn short! lol

[TheShaneshar]

The Swamp Boogie Queen,.......ain;t she Grand??

[peterbiltroy]

Mama tried here too....

[cvframer]

her pleading eye said "Nope."

[angelofdeath2874]

whos the one dumbass who disliked this

[MsBones1950]

if you love country music oklahoma and family then for their sakes or your own watch msbones1950

[emmedina1]

mama tried

[Cinnlvr1]

This song is way too short!

[Underparr]

watch the video of Willie and Merle singing poncho and lefty and you will see Merle can sing with willie and sure as hell cant play with him. And I like them both

[jh31969]

Willy still smokin dem J's he gone get popped again

[wwg401]

What  they playing

[j4ckor]

genius although should maybe have repeated the chorus at the end!

outstanding neithertheless

[hickman200584]

nice to listen to real music again

[sofavresogood]

there is only one kind of country music and that is outlaw country not this pop country shit you hear everywhere

[bobthefreak09]

Thumbs Up if Merle Haggard was the only thing that led you to this video.

[cowboyfan1113]

@bobthefreak09 Toby + Willie= a small pimple on Merle's left a$s cheek, Merle is the best, no disrespect towards Willie, he's great but he damn sure aint Merle

[campfiresinger33]

@bobthefreak09 midlife crisis led me here....

[tarheelcowboy252]

Did Toby Keith have gum in his mouth the whole time? Look at 1:16 at the right corner of his mouth and then at 2:17 at his mouth. That to me is disrespect to Merle and complete arrogance.

[picker61]

@tarheelcowboy252

Have you ever played under the lights and tried singing.....hmmm...think about it...Well I have thousands of nights, and you need the gum to keep your mouth moist..it's a given...you either have the gum, or you guzzle water...I know Merle, and I know Toby...and trust me, there was NO disrespect here

[timowenbl]

THIS IS AWESOME !!!!!! CK IT OUT !!!!!

[Tobyswarrior]

I bet Toby was in his glory!

[Harrelson15]

I could do without Toby.

[majadahonda]

@Harrelson15 Nothing against him either but he's a soldier while the other two guys are commanders.

[CumminsCrazedredneck]

@majadahonda no ,Merle is the major general and Willie is the gunnary sergeant while Toby is the private. but i like toby too so i wasnt bashing him.

[gillybeans73]

that was awesome!

[jfkr77]

what with the turbin tobby

[MikeJohnson624]

@jfkr77

thats called a cowboy hat....

[jfkr77]

@MikeJohnson624 not a real one sorry

[jfkr77]

merle rocks

[jfkr77]

sound alot better without tobby kieth

[jimaroo100]

Eevery time I see Willie with another artist here on you tube, he is always content to let the other guy shine... it doesn't always have to be about hi, He is a class guy.

[AirsoftVeteran96]

merle is a badass old dude!

[mindeloman]

Toby Keith is the antithesis of country music.

[ThousandShakes]

if toby is world class, merle is universal

[DochSchneider]

Toby Keith really held his own singing lead and harmonies. Impressive and surprising.

[ELVISETA1]

@DochSchneider toby is world class...no surprise here

[chickenchix1]

hello,jsph29

WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM?

YOU DON'T LIKE TOBY?

WELL, F##K YOU BACK

[jsph29]

f **k toby keith

[CumminsCrazedredneck]

@jsph29 i BET you wouldnt have the BALLS to tell Toby that, you piece of SHIT.

[onstageagain]

Oh my gosh... these guys are the greatest... love it love it ...

[onstageagain]

Oh my gosh... these guys are the greates... love it love it ...

[CumminsCrazedredneck]

@vickisue37 im only 19 and i listen to this stuff and i get weird looks when i sing this in school.

[vickisue37]

AMEN!! Oldie but goodie song!! Awesome job!!

[bengardner93]

Merle haggard and Toby Keith are both legends in my life not like the stuff today

[CumminsCrazedredneck]

@bengardner93 lets not forget Willie.

[bengardner93]

[duckamont]

[francifff]

My favourite country music... Good Work Merle.

[farmladyful]

The greatest country singer of all, Merle is in good company with these other two. this is true country music at it's best .

[rolandlouisa]

Damn good country music

[CumminsCrazedredneck]

@rolandlouisa hell yeah it is

[rolandlouisa]

Damned good country music.

Better than all the stuff today

[arhuxtable]

4 decades ago he wasn't,3 decades ago he wasn't,but now Merle is really haggard. LOL This would have been an awesome performance with two other country legends,Alan Jackson and Glen Campbell.

[arhuxtable]

DON'T ANYONE DARE SPLASH TOBY KIETH WITH BEER OR FLIP HIM THE BIRD. DON'T VERBALLY ABUSE HIM EITHER BECAUSE HE WILL TURN REAL UGLY AND VIOLENT.

[mcmuzik1]

Merle Haggard is my biggest influence in the music I play I wrote a song ..........."Hags Fault " If you're a true fan of his come check out jamesmcmuzik

[JohnyRedWorm]

Very nice....like a passing of the torch...

[EvilLurker121]

I wanna see Merle when he comes to Salina

[macwhirterx]

Merle Haggard is the best country singer there is, he's my idol.

[MrGmc1989]

damn i got chills when merle started singin..still sounds great

[EvilLurker121]

@MrGmc1989 I feel you, Merle gave me chills when he started singing.

[RockyTheEagle]

The first thing I remember knowing, Was a lonesome whistle blowing, And a young un's dream of growing up to ride; On a freight train leaving town, Not knowing where I'm bound, No-one could change my mind but Mama tried. One and only rebel child, From a family, meek and mild: My Mama seemed to know what lay in store. Despite all my Sunday learning, Towards the bad, I kept on turning. 'Til Mama couldn't hold me anymore.

[Lemoman47]

OMG ES LA MAMA DE TOBY

[southernpom]

Thank you!!

[StanLovech]

mama tried to rise me better ...

[AmalphiDesign]

Love it :) Thanks ...

[slopere]

[drzman03]

[CumminsCrazedredneck]

@drzman03 oldies but goldies.

[dagny1207]

Great! Thanks:-)

[2johnney]

[thathotdog95]
