![Confederate Railroad -- Bill's Laundromat Bar 'n Grille [REACTION/RATING]](/img/n.gif)
My Daddy made it through the 4th grade. I remember many days when he worked 14 hours, at hard, back-breaking labor to see that his six children had everything we needed- and occasionally something we wanted. The greatest, wisest man I've ever known. He and Mama gave their lives to take care of us. There is no greater love!
Great stuff right there, Mike. Props to your dad for giving so much of himself for you and your (his) family.
😭💔
Song gives me chills.
This song represents a huge part of Americans.
I’ve loved this song since I was young. I lost my dad to liver cancer in 2021 and now I can’t listen to this song without getting misty eyed. Love you Dad.
please more confederate railroad lot of great songs--she took it like a man and queen of Memphis are two good ones . Thanks great job
"Queen of Memphis" is on the list now---thanks for the rec, Ronny!
Referring to one of your comments about this song, check out "Everything That Glitters Is Not Gold" by Dan Seals.
It's an excellent song about being a single father, and abandonment. Pretty much, three chords and the truth.
Dan Seals was one half of England Dan and John Ford Coley, but he went back to his country roots later.
John Rich “Shuttin Detroit Down”
Barrett Granger totally agree
Confederate Railroad and Sawyer Brown are the 2 band's that got me into country music back in the early 90s
Best concert I've ever been to was Confederate Railroad and Sawyer Brown together and I've been to many, many shows over the years. Saw them in Concord, NC at an arena with not many attendees for some reason. I don't think it was well publicized. Met the Railroad after the show, a great bunch of guys who signed for anyone. Awesome times, this was around 2006.
This group got started not far from where i live. They were managed by a head coach of the Atlanta Falcons back in the day. Haven't listened to them in a long time. I've met a lot of people that like to subtract IQ points when they hear a southern accent but there's a lot of wisdom in this bands lyrics. Check out When You leave that way you can never go back by the guys. You won't be disappointed. I guarantee.
I love your reaction to this song. Check out their song Queen of Memphis.
On the list now---thanks again!
Jerry reeds "Amos moses" would be a great one to do.
On the list now, Brandon---thanks for the rec!
Great song, Thanks! There are plenty of great song by these guys to play.
I just hope for mankind this keeps played. One of the best songs written for father.
My Daddy hated the Cadillac. He worked his whole life hoping to buy a Lincoln to show "he made it" daddy died in 1997 and I made the funeral home promise a Lincoln. They showed up with a Cadillac so my friends, uncles, and I carried him the 1 1/2 miles to the grave.
try some Kentucky Head Hunters..... give them a spin.... walk softly on this heart of mine .... or.... Dumas Walker
Dumas Walker especially...90s country hidden gem.
My vote is his daddy drove a classic Chevy square body, a Ford Highboy, or maybe even a rusty Dodge Warlock? I would say Confederate Railroad are Outlaw/Southern rock rather than Red Dirt....but they do get played on Red Dirt stations around here :-)
Love the direction your channel is going! Wouldn't be here if all you did was Nashville pop "country"....ain't one to stand in the way of a man making hay but hearing pretty boys singing someone else's song is not for me.
Great song. Another one you would like from this band is
When you leave that way, you can never go back. I saw these guys last year. I enjoyed it even though his voice isn't what it used to be.
Wow a 9.2!! Was not expecting that high, but I’m glad you liked it man!
It definitely hit home with me---thanks again!!
Hey,how about Joe Diffie?
You will love him.
Third Rock from the Sun! Haha!
When I saw them in October this year, and I heard this song start and immediately told my wife "I'm getting up and going to the stage, can you please record this." I was like 4 feet from the stage, but this song strikes me so deep. Dad loved cars too...just not Cadillac's. He had 2 requests from me. "Cremate me, I don't wanna be in the ground," and "Have them play 'If Heaven Ain't a Lot Like Dixie' by Hank Jr." This song hits home for me hard.
One of my favs, thanks again for your excellent reviews!!
Man, your reactions and thoughts are amazing (amazing doesn't really describe it). Your videos are genius. I hope you get more subs than you can imagine. Keep it up man
-OoEy
If You Leave This Way You Can Never Come Back. Great song from these guys
There’s such wisdom in this song. Please react to You’ve Got To Stand For Something by Aaron Tippin.
They are one of my favorite bands seen them in 94 Do Jesus and mama or if you leave this way you can never come back
Confederate Railroad also had some very funny songs my favorite was she never cried when old yeller died. If you haven't heard it you should really check it out
This is memories that my daddy.
Tractors : Baby likes to rock it
Pat Green, Dixie Lullaby, equally touching
my dad met danny in bars back before they was confederate railroad They was danny shirley and the crossroads
Gotta love it when our paths cross with folks who become household names later on. Your dad must have been happy for Danny and to have met him.
Such a beautiful song , reminds me of my Papaw :)
I'm new to your channel but i'm already loving your playlist, John Prine R.I.P Sam Stone, Jamey Johnson, and this Confederate Railroad. Been listening to John Prine for years. Thank You for reacting to these great artists.
@Joe Hill Welcome aboard the channel, Joe!! Always good to have another country fan on this trip with everyone here!
Danny Shirley and confederate railroad are really an east Tennessee band- i saw them this Saturday night in Danny's home town - my dad is buried in the graveyard seen in this video along with his dad- its an Appalachian coal town- or used to be- check out Danny Shirley song "whitwell mine"- i heard you mention Appalachia in one of your other videos
Real music.
And long black veil. Its an old song covered by s lot of people like the allman brothers, johnny cash as one commenter said john anderson and merle haggard .
I just wanted to add a name to the list I believe lefty frizzell was the original singer but to me Bobby Bare had the best version of all you should check it out if you haven't heard it
That is a fantastic, wonderful song in every way I can think of!!! Over a 9, to be sure! I've just shared this video with my daughter, and she agrees. Neither of us had heard it before, but it's a type of music we love, and a story we also appreciate. Thanks for sharing. Really great analysis and reaction. :-)
It's so cool that you and your granddaughter listened to it, and it put a huge smile on my face!! Thanks for sharing that, G3!!
@@RockN2Country "daughter." LOL I like the G3 tag. Thanks! ;-) Quick explanation. My husband and I share a home (all four names are on the mortgage) with our youngest daughter (of six kids...his one, my four, and our one...three boys and three girls). She and her husband have seven children of their own (she and I homeschool them). They are part of the 19 grandchildren and four great-grandchildren to which we lay claim.
Judi and I are probably the most alike of all of the kids, but one thing all of us share is consuming love for music. :-)
I grew up with these guys. Awesome bunch
John Anderson and merle haggard long black veil
Catch a falling star or lying blue eyes would be awesome.
Great song by one of the more underrated country bands from the 90's. I'm glad you really enjoyed it! "Queen of Memphis" and "Jesus And Mama" are two of my other favorites from them.
On the list now---thanks for the rec!
Their song Long Gone!
Great song
So thankful you played this.
Seen them in concert and loved them.
I can't figure out what happened to them and a lot of other 90's singers.
They were really good.
He got divorced and is touring again. Saw them back in September
I am so chuffed you gave that rating and great reaction to this song - I just adore this band and have a couple of their tapes from quite a long time ago - the band as you say is totally brilliant backing these guys and they are so together - it unreal - I totally get the lyrics and love the melody - one of your best ones yet as far as I am concerned - Brilliant Don - thanks xx
Thanks for the kind words, C-MacMac (ha!), and I am glad that you are chuffed because I think that's a good thing, though I'm not sure!!
@@RockN2Country brilliant for sure - chuffed the Scots word for happy pal xxx
I hope you had a Chuffy New Year!!
@@RockN2CountryHa ha funny to hear it said that way !!!!
This song takes me back to Junior high school. The late 80's. Country Music's Golden era.
Cattleman's gun by Dean Brody is a great song. Should also check out Koe Wetzel, Kody West and Read Southhall
I second cattlemans gun, has a really cool story with it.
@Jacob Budke It's on the list and I'll be doing it in about two weeks. Stay tuned, thanks for the rec, and here's an overdue "Welcome aboard"!!
Shenandoah - Two Dozen Roses
Don’t know where you got your info about them Being from Marietta, Georgia but the band is from the Chattanooga, Tennessee area. Soddy Dasiy, Tn., Rossville, Ga & Whitwell, Tn.
@Paul Smith Not that Wikipedia is necessarily right, but I got it from a Wiki search: "Confederate Railroad is an American country rock-Southern rock band founded in 1987 in Marietta, Georgia, by Danny Shirley (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), Michael Lamb (lead guitar), Mark Dufresne (drums), Chris McDaniel (keyboards), Warren "Gates" Nichols (steel guitar) and Wayne Secrest (bass guitar)."
My family was the same growing up and they never had the best on both sides but they made it threw without getting fancy. I pretty much cry when i hear this thinking of both sets of grandparents and all 4 funerals i thought the same thing but the family wanted something with an added touch of style. They all thought a Cadillac was foolish and we didn't use one but they did go in style.
@Jason Daigle Thanks for sharing that---glad the song meant a lot to you. And welcome to the club here!!
Wow! Thank you for remembering them....such a talented bunch. The message is priceless, for sure.
You're welcome, Kc C!
This is a really good video too...
Love.this song...check out birdhunters by turnpike troubadours

Don the Kentucky headhunters
Hadn't heard this before, thanks for reviewing!
@Kresha Spence You're welcome!! I'm always happy when I turn folks on to something they hadn't heard before. That's part of the beauty and fun of doing reaction to subscriber requests, since I hadn't heard of so much of the recommendations and some of you guys haven't either. Makes it more interesting, huh?
@@RockN2Country Yes sir, definitely more interesting.
Rewatching.
This is the song I wanted you to react to.
Thank You Ron.
I must have missed giving you credit for recommending it!! Arghhh!! I'll have to make up for it somehow.
You should watch the original video that goes with the song, it really brings the song home!
The funniest thing is I literally just thought about Confederate Railroad for the first time in ages today and found you channel with a awesome reaction video. #Subscribed
Also, I never even realized they were a local kinda band. I grew up with them on the radio all the time. I saw them in concert when I was 14 at a Hells Angels Toys for Tots concert.
That must've been a helluva concert!!
Confederate railroad is awesome band lots of hits. I would request queen of Memphis.
On the list now---thanks for the rec!
@@RockN2Country cool thanks! Confederate railroad has lots of good songs. U should enjoy it
A great song, it reminds me of so many people I knew growing up.
Great Reaction video!! Super song!!!!
