What’s the Greatest Country Music Song Ever Made?
A writer for “Outkick” just asked the following question on Twitter: What’s the greatest country music song ever made? And then he went on to the impossible task of ranking the Top 10, based on his responses.
Here they are:
1. “Amarillo by Morning” by George Strait
2. “Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue” by Toby Keith
3. “Take Me Home, Country Roads” by John Denver
4. “Friends in Low Places“ by Garth Brooks
5. “The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia” by Reba McEntire
6. “A Country Boy Can Survive” by Hank Williams, Jr.
7. It was a tie between “A Boy Named Sue” and “I Walk the Line” by Johnny Cash
8. “The Gambler” by Kenny Rogers
9. “Stand by Your Man”by Tammy Wynette
10. “Mama Tried” by Merle Haggard
It seems if you ever want engagement online, just make a Top 10 list . . . you’re bound to make someone mad. Like how could there be NO DOLLY PARTON on this list? All of those 10 songs are awesome, but not including Dolly? Them’s fightin’ words.
