I like how they glorify drinking, cheating, etc.. than sing about "flying away" in the rapture to heaven. Those 2 don't mix. Not that you can't be "like that" and go to heaven, you most certainly can, but to openly glorify his lifestyle and sing about it, than mix it with the old fashioned hyms, just isn't right, they don't go together.
@strasburgpoker but its just a song, you dont have to be religious to enjoy the nice song.... anyway... anyone who has lived a real life has experienced these things
Sorry Merle is a great singer, but Johnny Cash is the greatest, because he crossed all musical boundaries, and made whatever he sang his own. He also created his own subgenre.
I was lucky enough to get to see this concert from on-stage, and meet the Malpass brothers as well as some of the other members of the band. Merle is the real deal, and the last of the breed.
Haggard kicks @SS. I'm seeing him at the Jackson County Fair this summer. It can't get any better than the HAG!!!!!

I have the Last Of The Breed dvd with Willie, Merle and Ray, and it is awesome, especially when they sing together.
