I clicked on this thread not expecting much bc I hate most all of country music in general, but your post had me .
I've never heard that song, and dont plan to, but those lyrics are as pop as it gets.

The only country I ever listen to(and its on rare occasion) is stuff I heard my mom always play when I was a kid..Garth Brooks, George strait, Waylon Jennings..
I feel like folk music is as close to country that I can get to

I downloaded FGL's latest album. It's basically a rap cd.

Kip Moore and Eric Church have done me right with recent album purchases, though.

i don't know what song that is, but i'll bet a pinky it will never find its way into my collection.

bama and beer probably loves it

Well, that old scene is always comin to me
I see you standin with your husband and your child
And you’re a picture of strength, and grace and beauty
And me I’m just a fool in a super market aisle
Well I, well know hello would surely end up awkward
I never had the knack for talkin any way
You’re not the kind for bending over backwards
Smile and turn my shopping cart around and walk away

Cory Branan - whiskey grove


My name is Miguel Simone
A man who walked it alone
At least that's what it says on the stone under the sycamore
My mother was dead by the time I was born
In the black of my eyes the gypsy nurse warned
She could already see my path torn between the sun and the moon
So I walked it and I walked it straight
Until I passed through so many a gate
That not even the blame and the hate of my father could follow
So roll me into my last shallow bed
Use carpenter tacks in the lid
Waste not the silk on my head my lover has wove
See that no roses touch my grave
No prayers to a god I never forgave
No final wishes, save that you
Bury my body and me down by Whiskey Grove
I once knew the love of a wife
Sometimes the nectar, sometimes the knife
But it always seemed that my life was lived alongside of things
Three children born one hot July
She clutched the one that did not die
The heat and the light just passed by as I carried the other two -
I still carry the other two
I've seen the place where the daylight was killed
And the blood of a blue moon lay spilled
Where hearts go quiet, memory stilled, rest is bestowed
It's a place where the cup passeth over for good
And even Jesus would've hid if he could
In that forsaken stretch of wood they call Whiskey Grove
My name is Miguel Simone
A man who walked it alone
At least that's what it says on my stone under the sycamore
