I’m a big fan of classic country music.  I can’t say that I care too much for anything that comes out of Nashville these days.  The old stuff just seems to have more integrity than fluff like Rascal Flatts (which I consider to be one of the worst of the modern day offenders).

One of my favorite all time singers has got to be Merle Haggard.  Great voice and fantastic songs about hard work, freedom, prison, and (of course) drinking.  In fact the only song I have ever sung (”sung” may be giving me too much credit) in a karaoke bar was Haggard’s “I Think I’ll Just Sit Here and Drink.”

One of his songs that piqued my interest this week was “Are the Good Times Really Over for Good” so here’s The Hag performing it for your pleasure.
