Yup,I almost tear up, thinking the younger generation will never hear the gold in songs like this
I played this every night for my dying mother in Nov 2020; she had vascular dementia and was lost to us mentally in her final days. Merle singing this brought her back to us for brief moments each time. For that Merle, you deserve eternal love and respect. RIP to mam n Merle....2 of the greatest people of the 20th century.
What a blessing and precious memories. I turned a young 60 in June of last year (soon to be 61). When I was living in my home town in my late teens and early twenties, I was listening to the greatest country music ever. I had a crush on this ruggedly handsome man, too. LOL I have many of his CD's in my collection among other country greats. I've been in Atlanta for almost 30 years, and have a few co-workers who recognize the best of the best. For those who throw stones at Merle Haggard's mistakes, read his story on Wikipedia. He didn't have a perfect life, and furthermore, in 1972, he received an official pardon from future President Regan, who was then Governor of California and released from prison with all past crimes erased, some of which were not of his own individual involvement.
Before my dad passed I'd play the wreck of ol 97 every Sunday morning.
By far, the BEST Country singer of our generation! Rest in Peace.
Definitely one of the Best, Top 5
Best:
Johnny CASH
Waylon Jennings

I'm 84 yrs and loved this man's songs 🎵 ❤ most of my life..beautiful ❤️
I'm impressed with your Profile and personality, and I also admire your good sense of humor on here, I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserved this compliment, hope you don't mind Us being good friends. I would love to have your email or your cell phone number so we talk better.🌹🌹
This song reminds me of my wife. It was her favorite song before she lost battling cancer, I wish I could change the hands of time, she was always there for me and our lovely daughter, life could be so unfair most times but sometimes I wonder why bad things always happen to good people.
I’m 79 and from a generation that grew up with real country music
Like the immortal Hank. Williamson Snr. But once any country music lover gets just a listen to the real genuine country sound and voice of. The Hag as he’s affectionately known. Merle. Haggard. There’s no going back. It’s been said. This and other generations are missing out on a voice coupled his unique guitarist sound. Lyrics that came from the heart. His own personal life’s story. Merle Haggard. Was. To me and many more. Still is the. Greatest country western singer
he's truly a masterpiece. where are you from if you don't mind me asking?
I would say he is one of the top 3 or 4 for sure. Let every soul touched by Country Music put him where their own personal heart dictates. Surely the Hag will be #1 with many.....
I love Merle this song the most, it touch me....really the best country song ferover...God bless Merle n family..
My daddy always listened to Merle on our old record player. He was one of his favs and still is one of mine! Love his voice
You have excellent taste in good music Raylene@@raylenepatton8015
Many years ago I wouldnt listen to Merle Haggard because ,being a hippie of the 1960’s , I was offended by the lyrics to Okie from Muskogee. Fast forward 40 years- and thanks to CZcams , I now realize just how remarkable a lyricist, guitar player, and singer he truly was. Everytime I hear this song, it brings tears to my eyes. And watching and listening to him over the years, I agree with one of the posters that he peaked in his later years. Approaching 70 myself, there is a wisdom and perspective that comes with age. Thats why I have grown to love Merle and much of country music which i scorned in my youth.
Just fyi: Okie is a langue and cheek song. He was probably smoking a joint when he wrote it. He just knew his audience.
Some hippies loved it. Trust me
Me, too.
He clearly smoked it during that time. Just appealing to his base!
NEVER too old to change .
Instead of coming out of jail with a hardened heart ❤️ he came back. With a song in his heart a true gift from God for the world 🙏❤️
Hello how are you doing
This song reminds me of my wife. It was her favorite song before she lost battling cancer, I wish I could change the hands of time, she was always there for me and our lovely daughter, life could be so unfair most times but sometimes I wonder why bad things always happen to good people,
Whenever this was recorded, I reckon Merle was at his best. I just love his tone and timbre during this whole concert. RIP Merle. Still appreciating your talent in 2023.
HE IS ALWAYS AT HIS BEST AND ALWAYS WILL BE ❤ I AM 56 AND HAVE LOVED HIM SINCE I WAS 6 I PLAYED ALL HIS ALBUMS NONSTOP CUZ I BEGGED MOM TO ALLOW ME TO AND TEACH ME HOW TO USE THE RECORD PLAYER 😂🎉. NOW I'M MERLES GIRL 4EV❤😊
I was at this concert, you here me year from the balcony as I cried, no lie.
God works in myssterious ways
*I AM 74 YEARS OLD. I BECAME AN EX-CONVICT WITHIN THE LAST FEW YEARS. THIS IS ONE SONG I WILL ASK THAT A FEW PEOPLE PLAY, TO REMEMBER ME BY WHEN I PASS FROM THIS WORLD. LIKE MERLE, BEEN THERE AND I KNOW MERLE'S MUSIC COMES STRAIGHT FROM HIS HEART.*
@@vic81635Vicki, if you are a girl of Merle, you are a girl after my own heart. I hope you do not mind if this 74 year old soldier calls you girl friend then. Yes, or no, that is okay. I am used to people wanting to keep a distance from me, but, no matter, I will still be your friend. Just friend is fine, if you would be ever so kind. May God's Grace and Mercy be upon you. GO in Peace. Adieu! Sp5 Dune Xapa, U.S. Irregular Army IrA 11 ... 19
I feel really sorry for the younger generation that may never know how great this man was, is, and always will be.
oui tu as raison James, mais heureusement qu'il y a youtube pour que nous puissions voir Merle, j'aurai tant aimé assister à un de ses concert, dommage.... il nous manque à tous ;-)
They'll find out.
I feel sorry as well, I am young and know who he is. And the rest of the outlaws ;) I will never stop listening to their music.

You've got that right
We are so fortunate...L
Love me some Merle Haggard
If this doesn’t move your soul I don’t know what will. A master practicing his craft and very much missed.
He nailed this one the hardest. The harmonizing on it feels like it represents a combination of emotion the guy in the song wA feeling. I also like that he did Its All Going to Pot.
Yes...
RIGHT DOWN TO MY SOUL EVERY TIME
The only other country singer
That comes any where close
To the Hag. Is. Gene. Watson
A fabulous voice from a. Man
Very humble what can anybody say about Merle
Haggard most country
Artists. Take their cue from the man politely. Called
The. Hag. What he. Sang
Fast became a hit. Yet he preferred to live in
California. Where he could
Write his songs without being
Disturbed. When visiting Bill
Anderson. Bill said. Merle you are my favourite country singer for a short while no one
Spoke. Bill Anderson looked over thinking he had maybe
Offended him. Instead Merle
Was in tears. These country
Singers their songs are from true. Experience
I think when he made this show . He knew his days were numbered
23 years old and I’m happy I have discovered this gem
Good start...some music and some performers have no age bias...🥰
As a kid, my Dad, a Marine in Korean War loved Merle! Used to play his records at night and would sit on back porch and sing with him, while he drank a beer and Mom cooked dinner! I grew up loving Merle!
Still do! God bless him and his sons!
Hi Rhonda 👋 how are you ??
Beautiful memory of dad my dad was a johnny cash kind a dad but I went next to my aunties house I could listen to anything. I was young listening to old music everytime they drank I got to play the music .
@@lisaakina7067 oh that’s nice 😊 Marle Haggard is one of my favorite artist and this is one of my best song of him. Can I please ask you a question.. ?
I love it deep in my heart!
Merle had a way of penning words plus singing them that could touch those ole heart strings. .. on certain songs, like no one else..
Now, this is Real Country Music not the crap they are playing on the radio today.
That the damn truth
You got that shit right
This man was one of the greatest singer/songwriters in this country. The real deal through and through. I still get choked up hearing his beautiful voice. Merle was very down to earth and never thought he was better than anyone else. A salt of the earth soul. May he be resting peacefully and watching over his loved ones ❤️🙏🎶🎤🎸🇺🇸
I'm sitting here listen to him with my mom. I'm 45 she is 71. I grew up with this music I absolutely love it.
If his songs didn't touch your heart you weren't born with one ... hold him in your hands Lord and guide him where he needs to be ... RIP Merle
Something special about his name, right Merle?!
Amen to that. I love Merle and this is what I raised my kids on.
Amen to that😊🙏❤
Amen. Truer words were never spoken
BLESS
No one can sing it like Merle! He was amazing. His music reminds me of my dad.🙏❣️🙏
My daddy looked and sang exactly like merle would take me on stage at dads gigs n let me sing too with my dad
He looks like my daddy did and that is heart wrenching but beautiful.
His songs remind me of my daddy to.❤
❤The very best.

@ andyknowles558 .Your message is just so very true.absolutely love this beautiful song. Songs like this will be around a very long time. So special just beautiful. Love it.
My husband says this is a sad song but it makes me feel good and smile every time I hear it. It takes me back to my childhood. My Daddy always listened to Merle💜
To me it's a trarjerkerrker..
This is the very best version of this song, in my opinion. Merle was pure class.

There'll never be anyone that will compare to Merle Haggard.

Merle, Hank Sr, and Marty R and then everone else.
I am 74 and had never heard of him. Now I have to listen to this song at least twice a day. His voice is pure syrup. And the back up spectacular, the violinist in maroon coat and black hat stirs my heart who ever he is. Merle I you have a new fan. Thankyou. Australia 🇦🇺

You really just recently heard of Merle Haggard? Omg, I grew up with hearing him. I just turned 60
Do yourself a favor bro and get a greatest hits album of the Hag. And may God Bless the great country of Australia
If he ever sang a bad song I haven't heard it and I think I've heard them all
Scott Joss out of Redding, ca…..you should him play swing and jazz. Impeccable ear!!
Not Many Songs Have Brought Me To Tears, But
"Sing Me Back Home" Does It Every Time.Thanks
Merle For Such A Wonderful Song, And Thank God
For Such A Great Singer. RIP.
Don Connely yu really hit the nail on the head ! I too will NEVER get tired of listing to Merle Haggard. Why would anyone think I picked him out 1st. for songs/singers I want to hear on CZcams before I go to bed. I have a few favorites, by Merle Hagard, and a few by Don Williams I always WANT to be the songs that help me sleep.

Hello 👋 Craig. How are you doing? Hope you are fine. I'm Zack Hudson and am from Denver Colorado, where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
He did fabulous even after missing the first verse
@@Tbone1952ciao amico!🙋😍😘💘🌅
@@zackhudson5172Lol, dude! Craig is a man's name!! 😂
I've worked damned near 38 years being the man on the other side of the bars. Merle Haggard was the Man.
I was privileged to meet this epic man one time at a concert in Wichita Falls Texas. My brother in law was dating a lady that was a promoter producer in North Texas. I was recruited as part of the security team. He was one of a kind and a legend then and now. His music will forever be remembered as the common mans. It is a true question, “Who’s gonna fill their shoes”.
*Nobody can fill their shoes* 😢😢
Just imagine no America just life without genuine country singers, sad n boring and most of all loneliness without the true meaning of life across the board. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
This is country music at its finest. I love this rendition of Merle's song He seems to have slowed the tempo down just a little. You get to hear all the great background music and it's just beautiful. And then you get to hear Merle do his guitar picking right at the right time. Just another one of his great songs!
Slowing the tempo gives this lovely song the pathos it deserves. I came to appreciate Merle relatively late, as I am more a folk and folk-rock fan. When I first heard him sing "Misery and Gin" I was shocked at the silkiness of his voice. He can sing ballads with the best - with Sinatra, Bennett, etc. This is my favorite, along with "Think About a Lullaby."
What a terrible loss to Country music,,,, absolutely unique performer.
The recording on the LP was a more upbeat tempo. The record label said it was to churchy done slow.
Hello 👋🏻
This rendition gives me goosebumps. And what a backup band.
He is the original artist and writer of this song....
You can say that again.
The backups are Asleep at the Wheel. Legends on their own.
You have several great musicians. Harmonica player plays with Willie for the last 30 years. The fiddle player is a big time sessions player. Lead singer of Asleep at the wheel singing back up. Can’t see who is playing steel. Great Song and great concert.
Sierra Vista, AZ - the summer of 2003 I tossed MH a tall boy Bud at the end of his concert. He picked it up, popped the top, said thanks and walked off stage. What a great memory!
Dear Lord how we miss this man. I am just so grateful that we have his recordings and these video clips so that his music can be enjoyed by generations to come.
Amen
@@deanmary1969 n.m
Yes indeed. We have to let our children know what music was all about. Some say it music others say in words.
@@thelmacummings425 Just keep playing the music. It may not be their style now and they will dismiss it as old fashioned, but if they continue to hear it they will eventually appreciate it when they grow a little older.
which Lord?
Voice, guitar playing, band, melody, lyrics, emotion. All give me goosebumps. This simply melts the heart.
And most importantly ..."HARMONY"
He sure as hell " nailed it"....

Our generation had the best of country music. This song still gives me goosebumps. We played this at my dad's funeral as we proceeded out it just seemed perfect . He was the reason I appreciated Merle, Hank,Waylon the Possum and so many others from that Era. It remains in my heart the best of country music for ever!!!! Whose gonna fill their shoes.
Hello juanita
👋
I feel exactly the same!
I agree 100% but Sturgill Simpson is one of the rew who still makes real country music.
czcams.com/video/rUpH0muyR-I/video.html
I wore out an 8 track player when this song came out, over 50 years ago now and I still love it.
My first 8 track, his greatest hits, kept me from a lot of trouble back in the day! I was around 14 years old. Unmatched by many, for sure! I’m 68 now. He still sounds as good today! RIP Merle ❤
I'm a 18 yr. Old Country boy and I'm glad I was raised around this music. I wish I could have gone to all the great country singers concerts
Listen to the old stuff, the new country is just loud and garbage to make your ears bleed.
You don't need to be an ex-con for this song to touch your soul. Beautiful and melancholy.
I think it strikes home the way it does because we all of us are under our own sentence of death, many of us haven't been given a date, and the older we get, the more we miss the more innocent days long gone by, and the warm comfort they give us.
Sadly, I know this is not completely true for some, but I can only speak from what I feel.
So true.
This is by far the most wonderful performance of this song! Timeless !
Backup singers always take it to a top level performance.
The guitar solo is an example of simplicity equaling beauty
truth.
Just no one else can never fill Merle Haggards boots
Hi Janet
Merle Hargard was a great giant in the world of country music. His songs are very inspirational indeed.
An aged Merle still killin it on vocals and lead guitar....whew...had a tear in my eye while I was singing along.
Voice like butter!!! Rest in Peace Mr. Haggard. I am so glad you left a legacy of amazing music.
Hello Linda. How're you doing, hope you're good.
THE BEST COUNTRY SINGER TO EVER STEP ON A STAGE!! THIS IS REAL COUNTRY MUSIC! PERIOD!! IF THIS MUSIC DONT TOUCH YOUR HEART AND SOUL NOTHING WILL!! RIP MR HAG!! 😊👍💜🙏🎵
Great 👍 🙏❤️

Amen brother... Amen!
Merle and my Mom shared time together at the end of their lives.
She and he were at the same mortuary sadly....my Mom would of thought that was cool as an alive person.Some how it helped knowing they were together in some way....ugh...hardest thing I did was saying good bye to the last of my immediate family.
Rest easy Mama enjoy the music in the heavens....
Amen 🙏
Asleep at the Wheel as backup. Now, that’s rich. RIP Merle.
I have heard him sing this many times but this is my favorite version of this wonderful song. I think the harmonica adds so much to this.
How are you? Beautiful song.
Hello Cheryl how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
@@larrybill2661 I am doing great! Whenever I feel like I need a pick-me-up, I put a Merle Haggard or some other Country music singer on U-tube and watch their concerts. That always perks me up.

This is so beautiful. I want to express how this song made me feel but just simply cannot. It's just so harmonious and peaceful.
and the lyrics are awful. A criminal is walking to death row, but he tries to find peace in his own death, right before he dies. He realizes in the last minutes how his life should have and could have been different! so sad. So awful. But the criminal made his choice. Now its death row. Wonderful rendition, love Merle so much.
its like a pray
you do know this song is about him going to jail for killing a state trooper right
Hello how’re you doing
It's an awfully song unless stud in a jail or prison cell innocent
Not many musicians out there that can touch your soul with songs like this, that guys like merle haggard can only deliver. 💔
Merle has been my musical warm blanket for 40 years.
Even at that age he still sounded so good
Oook
Maybe better on this one...? It's good!!!!
Beautiful voice sings from his heart❤
He does 💕💚
Lotta soul in this song cuz it’s a tribute to a man Merle met at the lowest point in both of their lives. Only a true artist could manufacture something this soul wrenching. High praise for a masterwork by the great Merle Haggard❤
Wow! The man could really tell a story with his songs. Great artist.👍👍🇨🇦
The words sing me back home are engraved into my dad's head stone, he taught himself to play the guitar by listening to you great generation of singing sensations
I would say Merle, this song, among all his others kept me out of prison! This man is one of the greatest!❤
Merle’s voice and songs will live forever in our hearts. Absolutely beautiful!
Hello So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song

I love this song, the way Merle sings it and his tone on that signature Telecaster is amazing.
I’m so glad my son played this song for me! God I love this version, so good!
He’s always been my favorite and reading these accolades from his many fans attest to his greatness in the country music field and are so touching and deserving. His sons inherited his talent and are doing a great job keeping his music alive.
This and other albums played in our livingroom every Sunday on the turntable when I was just a young child. This still pulls at my heartstrings like it used to. Such a wonderful part of our lives and he is so full of soul! Love you Merle Haggard

Christmas music
Us "Dinosaurs" as Hank Jr. called in his song have got to keep their memory and our kind of music alive. Remember "We don't all get into Donnar Summer" or songs by "gay guitar pickers don't turn us on." VIVA Merle Haggard.

@Carlos Soto-Gomez...I'm not a Chaplain but I worked as a Rehab Therapist with 3-18 Children and Adolescents for a big part of my life and sometimes The Doctors would treat some as prisoners unjustly I wasn't suppose to bring Faith into my sessions but when the time was appropriate I would slip it in and coming home from the military in late dec 67 several of my good friends who didn't serve got in some pickels (Trouble) and I went to visit them at different units at Huntsville in the 70s and it was real so Mr. Merle can bring a quick group of Tears fast...Goodness Grace Happiness and good Health to all people of all Lands I believe he was Singing to all of us with our so many situations in Life ..Sing ba k home hits home everytime and now being 72 it even means more every time ! Thanks for sharing ! olman way down in TX...JD
It was the Salvation Army that came in for the service and singing. where I was at 30 years ago. I still have the Christmas gift bag they gave us.
Yes I'm in those same shoes I'm just a volunteer at Walla Walla state prison but this song touches me to the bone bro. Keep up the good work
The man is among the very best to have ever done it. Not many singer / songwriters in this class !
Merle could do it all. His voice control was amazing. No one could do it like Merle.
The best country singer was Merle Haggard love it.
It will be requested at my funeral.
Talk about tears. I will miss MH .
I love this song. It is special, loving and kind. It reminds me of my mum. She did not sing as far as I remember, but her mother's-like love was special, kind and very sweet. She loved my dad, my brothers and my sisters with a deep and kindly love. My siblings and I knew her great love for us all. Love you mama. Layton.
You can hear Merle lived this song in his voice. Beautiful!
Turn back the years man that just hits you when he sings that line.
Merle's life was right there in all his songs. He told so many personal experiences through his music!!
You're absolutely right.... Good morning Martin how are you doing over there hope you're having a wonderful day it's another lovely day that the lord has made.
My dad loved Merle, George, and Johnny. These men were the most talented country artists ever. The music of today doesn't even come close!! I miss them all! RIP Dad, Merle, George, and Johnny. ❤
As Merle Haggard’s body aged his voice never seemed to. What an absolute treasure he was.
Merle that's why Merle is him did you see all them band mates look at him when Merle played the guitar. You wish some people lived forever Merle one of those guys. Rip Merle. He's up in the gods angel choir now.
There was Merle and all the rest was following in his dust. Nobody else in country music will even come close. The Master at work here.
What an amazing voice! You can feel the heart and soul of this great gentleman.
I can feel every word Merle Haggard sings
