David Ball is so underrated! This is such an important song. Thanks to whomever requested.
Lots of you requested. - Keith
I think he would have been much bigger, but he didn't have the right image for the time.🤷♀️
I've been waiting for y'all to react to this! I did a short stitch in the Army, my oldest did 8 yrs in the Coast Guard, and my youngest son just started his re-enlistment in the Marines. He is a Sgt. now. My Grandfather was in the Army and his older brother was in the Air Force during WW2. So these Military songs really get me. Thank you Sir, for your service.
Thanks! Give your boy an oorah from me. Military service is a family tradition in mine too. It just skipped my dad. - Keith
Has a special place in my heart. A relative of mine a few decades ago was driving a very powerful small Ford, in the U.S., lost control, crashed into a tree at speed & was catapalted through the wind screen, (no seat belts back then), & landed on the 'hood'. A passer by reported that the young man was then lifted by some force & laid gently on the ground! He lived, his son is a pastor in the U.S. True story.
Such an honest and genuine reaction. Every time I hear this I can't help but get all teary eyed.
Definitely a powerful song. - Keith
Private Malone is more of a man than I will ever be. Think of it, this guy first kinda rips off Malone's widow by buying the car for only $1000, THEN he goes and totals Malone's dream car. BUT, being the military man that he was, Malone still saves the guy's life. Total integrity.
It's not a old Chevy... But I am now driving a 20+ year old pick-up...it will always be Daddy's truck...I've almost been in 5 accidents since Daddy passed away. Every time I hear Daddy's voice in my head tellin me to do something I do it. It saves me every time. I will never sell it.
Daddy was a Vietnam/Korean war veteran. He made it back whole, physically and mentally.
I will always miss him. He left a huge hole in my life.
Lots of vehicles out there that have that kind of value. - Keith
So, I grew up in south central Kansas. There was a corvette that sat in one of my neighbors back yard for as long as I can remember. It was blue, white top and white interior. Can’t remember the year, but he wouldn’t sell it. Like this song, it belonged to his son we didn’t make it home from Vietnam.
I actually have pictures of a 1967 Shelby Mustang this guy found in a barn he was about to rip down on a piece of property he bought.
He went it, just before the wreckers were going to knock it down.
It had less then 5000 miles on it.
The owner's son died in Vietnam.
I honestly have pictures
67 Shelby is a grail car for a lot of folks. - Keith
@@BourbonCountryReacts
Think about finding one in a barn on property you just bought.
I was so blessed to be able to see him perform this live at the Opry before he released it. As a military brat thrice over sitting with my dad and then stepmom, it made me ball.
This song brings tears in my eyes
Great reaction. I have always loved this song by David Ball. It's one of my all time favorites. Thank you to all who is or has served our country.
Thanks!
A friend of mine from the American Legion in Minnesota, when he got back from Vietnam he bought a Vette. He still drives it every now and then.
Great reaction, love this song.
I love Dragons Milk! I think it tastes like chocolate and mint, kinda reminds me of a cold York peppermint patty dipped in whipped cream.
There was definitely a touch of mint flavor in this. - Keith
@@BourbonCountryReacts slow sip it you'll taste the chocolate and whip cream
Love this song!!! I actually got to meet David Ball and got to go on stage with a friend of mine... had a blast and even met the whole band!!! It was over 12 yrs ago but a great night!!!
The other guy riding in the car was the man who wrote the song.
Spot on reaction fella’s. Feel exactly the same way, car would’ve been mine till I was no longer here. And, glad to see vote choices again.
Yeah, we were glad to get back to them, but bribes are starting to come in again. Steven recently loaded us up with them. - Keith
This is a great song, I only heard this for the first time on the radio a couple weeks ago. Another song you should react to is Wait in the truck by Hardy. Y'all would really enjoy it i think.
Thanks thanks for reacting to this song. I’ve been describing this to others for a while now and no one ever knows what I’m talking about. I listen to this with my mom one time before she died of Alzheimer’s and for some reason it just reminds me of her in a special way she really liked it. Thanks again God bless ✌🏻☀️
You guys wanted it. We are 100% viewer driven on this channel. - Keith
@@BourbonCountryReacts OK well then I’m gonna call you out on the SugarLand songs. Her name is Jennifer Nettles. Been trying to get you to react to ( His Hands ) About a subject you Hate! But the song is so well written! ✌🏻☀️
Man, you can't beat a good story in a country song. One of the things country music does best is tell stories - not all the songs, but most of the best songs, are telling a story.
Another great car song is "455 Rocket" by Kathy Mattea! Also by her, Lonesome Standard Time, Time Passes By, and Patiently Waiting.

(Apologies for the long list, I've been binging your channel but hadn't commented yet! Believe me, this was holding back...)
Oh man so happy to see this! This is one of my all time favorite songs. I remember singing it with my mom as a young girl while we were camping and I still get choked up every time I hear it. It’s just such a great tale. David Ball is the tops! Idk about drinking dragons milk though lol.
Lee Brice - “I Drive You Truck” is an awesome song!!
I have been waiting for you guys to react to this for a long time! ❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸
It had a lot of votes. - Keith
One of the writers, Thom Shepard, played Pvt. Malone.
the guy who wrote this song Thom Shepard also wrote a prequel about private Malone called Last letter home, really underrated song you should give it a listen
If we get enough votes or a bribe, we certainly will. - Keith
@@BourbonCountryReacts I'd like to add my vote for Last Letter Home.
If I found a '66 Vette barn find for $1,000. After buying it my first thought would be to clean her up and sell her for a huge profit. But I agree, once I found the note, there would be no way in hell I could sell her. I think I would show her and have the note framed to show with her.
That framed note would get a lot of attention at a show. - Keith
I think yall should react to "Wait in the truck by Hardy" if possible. Also love the content watched almost all your videos last night when I found ya and definitely subscribed.
Thanks for subscribing, and glad you enjoy the channel. - Keith
Thanks for requesting this I sent a bribe trying to get there for us your awesome and the only other person I have seen requesting "wait in the truck " it is the best country song in years and I love HARDY he is a genius.
@@Melody-bourbonite4life agreed he makes good music and the song is so powerful lyrics wise.
@@christopherparsons3477 couldn't agree more and the video concept ties it together so beautifully he is a lyrical genius
That is an awesome song! I throw my vote in too!
Have you guys ever considered doing a bourbon tour? You could show some of your favorite for taste and for the cool bottles.
This song has always been great. Nice to hear it again.
Ive always really enjoyed this one. A more semi modern country song but I really enjoyed the story.
It's a great story for sure. - Keith
A few years ago I was helping clean storm damage out of an old graveyard that had a veterans section that dated all the way back to the Civil War cleaning up some tree limbs I noticed that there is a tombstone that had the name Private Andrew Malone on it all though the date on it was from World War II so chances are he was not the guy that would have Inspire this song still an interesting find though
Yeah, I would have assumed Vietnam era. - Keith
I checked out an original 66 Vette that was loaded with a 427 4 speed. The front was cratered because the guy had more go than stop. Drum breaks on a car that was light and with 425 plus horsepower and bias ply skinny tires, lol.
Yeah, they're a handfull for sure. - Keith
First great song, made me tear up a bit. Now onto the bourbon. I get the spearmint, then a nice caramel that rolls into cinnamon and finishes with Oak. Nice complex and damn tasty.
Boone County wv is basically what is middle of nowhere is. Nothing around but mountains and valleys. Its a wild place.
Yup. Really wild area. - Keith
Great reaction, yall are funny, Private Malone couldn't have saved him if there wasn't a crash. 😁 Thank you for sharing your story about the car.
Yeah, those 63s are darned rare. - Keith
@@BourbonCountryReacts it was a 66
You should check out Buddy Jewel's 'Help Pour out the Rain'.
Love you guys this was so much my hubby’s response 😂
A must hear is They Call Me Doc by Walker Mcguire
Ohh Boone county 🤣 My husband was a correctional office and met one of them. Came home made me watch the doc immediately. We live up north known more for Jessica Lynch than anything thank goodness.
I hear Jessica's a teacher now. Good for her.- Keith
My name is Raymond, I am a Viet Nam vet, and I lost friends. Know how he felt. Thanks for he review
I really enjoyed this for a multitude of reasons because I absolutely agree 66 Corvette private Malone's dream not going nowhere. But I love the song nonetheless.
Yeah, crashing a 66 is a bummer though. - Keith
@@BourbonCountryReacts yes I'm a car girl and I cried at the poor cars fate.
Great Song:)
Great bourbon reaction!
I DONT EVEN DRINK BUT NOW I WANT TO TASTE THAT BOURBON!!! I HATE BOURBON BUT THAT SOUNDS GREAT!!! I WANT TO WATCH YALL WHEN YALL ARE LOADED!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂
Outstanding everyone
love this song and so glad it's votes again
i hope you guy's do the song E from Matt Mason soon i think you will love that song
Hardy - Wait in the truck
I agree with what you said.
Bringing Mary Home - Red Sovine
One of my favorites !!!
FYI...u need to find the story behind that song. This song is just made up but the idea is based on an old car a guy had as his first car. I believe it was actually a wagon.
IF YOU SPEWED YOU WOULD HAVE LICKED IT OFF THE TABLE AND FLOOR!!!😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤
I could see a combination of factors on the song.The mother didn't have the knowledge of the cars monetary value.Also the memories of the car being around could be a burden and she wanted to see it go for a better cause.Is the song going to make your driving playlist?
Maybe. I think I'd have to be in a mood of some sort to want to hear this. It's a great song, but I'm not sure. Kind of a "downer," really, and I try to avoid those in most of my playlists. - Keith
Yes, I'm the curious one. Did y'all ever actually finish the Stillhouse?
This was one of my favorite songs growing up! I have another song I believe you guys would enjoy it’s by Tracy Lawrence “If I don’t make it back” would love to see y’all react to it
Some times sentimental value exceeds any number. I wouldn't sell my dads last car if it had been left to me either.
I certainly wouldn't sell a split-window. - Keith
They should listen to Teddy Bear part 1&2 and Phantom 309.
Car boys always react differently. Daddy had a van....special type backwards it into an basic Buick with sentiment. But his eagle? It was a bird of prey. Car guys sometimes don't get we had cars including a examino looking thing. It wasn't also we had a tiny truck, 6 in y the us.
You know the private would have driven it in the rain, he was a private and probably had 28%"apr
The song is great and bourbon ya won me
Hey I have the GoT Johnnie Walker, too! Might have to look for this bourbon if it's that interesting. 🤔
Dustin thinks it might be a little tough to find. - Keith
The Wild and Wonderful Whites of WVA! Got more than one laugh from their special! Lol
Yeah, that wasn't near as good as the original VHS documentary they released somewhere around 1990. - Keith
Hmm... wonder if I can find that one online? Lol
I get mad everytime he wrecks the car lol
Can be kept in a building not the field under a tarp
My husband and a few friends get together for MMA fights. Bring something new and every can taste and decide if the like, love or Hell no.
We do that around here too, but usually at Dustin's, because his bourbon collection is better. - Keith
I know little to nothing about cars but how do you confuse a 66 Corvette with a Chevy
Corvettes are made by Chevrolet. - Keith
The Corvette has been Chevrolet's premier car since it's introduction. What the song is referring to is any Chevy other then a Corvette. So when it's discovered it's a corvette it changes the who feel of acquiring the car and how special it is. Then to lose it in a crash like that is very heart breaking.
@@johnpaulbacon8320 thanks lol
I sent bribes said it was delivered on Monday so you should have gotten it. Said it was at the office please let me know. My first song which I really hope you do is HARDY "wait in the truck " which I am definitely voting for either way. But I just really need to know if you got them. Since now I'm worried that it's 3 days later and you said your out of bribes.
We get emailed copies of comments. I've had one flagged in my inbox for you since your first comment letting us know it was coming. I'll reply to one of them when we make it in to grab it. - Keith
@@BourbonCountryReacts ok thanks
Well I can't try that bourbon because I am allergic to peppermint and it may kill me.
We don't think it has any actual peppermint in it, but, somehow it has the flavor of it. - Keith
8:09 yall mean jesco?! Roflmao! I grew up round bout lewis co, so...yup. Elvis has left the building 🤣
Yep. Jesco. I've met him more than once, and at one point was partying with Mamie along the Coal river back in my wilder days. - Keith
That'd been a good time. Or a complete tragedy. Idk, coulda gone either way. Ha
Frankly, it was a little scary. - Keith
@@BourbonCountryReacts so, exactly as I imagined lol I mean boone co alone... prob not the highest income for tourism in the area ...
ain't nobody gonna mention that he screwed the elderly woman over on the price? he wasn't even nice on that....Karma came from the private for that dude taking advantage of her. he got what he deserved.
Could you please do a react to "the strong one" by clint black?
Vote added.
Wait, your out of bribes. Better send ya one
That condition has already been remedied. Steve's at it again. And some others. - Keith
Im with yall they would have to pry those keys from my cold dead hands
Exactly. - Keith
@@BourbonCountryReacts I think i would have had that letter framed and mounted somewhere in the car.
Is it just me or is saying "very rural" and "West Virginia" redundant?
This may be a shocker, but WV actually has some cities and suburbs. And running water, too! - Keith
hahaha, damn guy crashed the car and ruined the song!
Love your choice of songs, but see no need for excessive profanity, so I have decided to stop watching your channel. Too bad.
Bye!!!
Oh boy,I know Boone co.UHaul WILL NOT rent a truck out to ANYONE heading there because it(and possibly whoever rented it)will never be seen again.
