- Hey y'all, this is Kevin from CMTM! Buckle up because we're about to get wild with some of the craziest country music songs ever! Episode 1!
There's a whole bunch of jokes out there about country music, usually from folks who haven't even given it a listen. But hey, some of them are pretty funny! Here's a classic one:
What do you get when you play country music backwards? You get your wife back, your dog back, your truck back... and probably get out of prison and get your trailer back too!
Now, we all know country music is more than just heartbreak and pickup trucks, but these goofy songs sure are entertaining. Let's jump into some real knee-slappers!
don't forget' I'll Never Smoke Weed With Willie Again"
No crazy country song list is complete without "May the bird of paradise fly up your nose."
Another great one. That should be in episode number 2 of crazy country songs.
ABSOLUTELY
That's not a "Country" Song. Neither is, "Does Your Chewing Gum Lose It's Flavor On The Bedpost Overnight" But, "Get Your Tongue Out of My Mouth Cause I'm Kissing You Goodbye" and "I'm My Own Grandpa" both are.
That was the first one I thought of!! 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

All my exes live in Texas
And that's why I hang my hat in Tennessee. George Strait
The Streak is what got me wanting to be in radio.
The first episode of 'The Outer Limits' (Galactic Being) got me interested. I had build a radio from a kit on my 8th birthday, and I discovered WSM that night, in 1960 but that TV episode was set in a real radio station. I was an engineer at a US Army radio & TV station at 21.
One evening our DJ had made some snide comments about Country Music. He nly played hard rock, and said "I won't play that shit kicking music on my show!"I put him off the air until he agreed to play 'Foggy Mountain Breakdown' before I turned the transmitter back on.
He played it one more time, the day I was processing out of the Army. That time he said, "This is for the best Engineer that I've served with."
"Jackson," "Boy Named Sue," "Queen of My Doublewide Trailer," "Thank God and Greyhound"....
Loved Thank God and Grayhound She's GONE
Joe Nichols "Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off"
Definite truth to the words of this song! Seen it happen cuz it happened to me!
I met one of the guys that wrote that song. He was from Zimbabwe. Nothing says country music like Zimbabwe!
Roger Miller could fill this list. Can't Roller Skate in a Buffalo Herd, Dang Me, Chug aLug, My Uncle Used to Love Me But She Died, Best of All Possible Worlds all should be on this list.
I love Roger!
"My Uncle Used to Love Me But She Died" sure takes on a new meaning today.😪
@@jz422....
Yes it does.
Roger Miller was the soundtrack of my teen years.
But who'd listen to it?
Jim Stafford, Ray Stevens, Roger Miller so many good ones. Thanks for the series.👍
Thank you for watching. More on the way!
How many country singers does it take to change a lightbulb?
Four.... one to change the bulb and three to sing about how great the old bulb was.
Oh yes!
I almost wrecked my car one night listening to Jim Stafford's Cow Patty
Always loved that one!
One of my favorite funny country songs, has to be "The Bird Song" by the great Jerry Reed
Anything by Jerry is good. He was very talented.
@VelvetPlatz,
is that the Tennessee Bird walk song? Where the birds all lost their feathers and "You can see them walking Southward in their dirty underwear-that's the Tennessee birdwalk". I loved that song!
Missing Hank Williams Jr singing are You Ready for some Monday Night Football
Me too 😢! Football 🏈 hasn’t been the same since! Well, it has but with something important MISSING!!!
When you were talking about divorce my first thought was "Going through the big D and I don't mean Dallas".
I'm hoping to find a Conway for that duet. Bet we'd win a karaoke contest with "You're The Reason Our Kids Are Ugly!"
My partner and I did the duet. We're both gals, but she put on a cowboy hat and I put on a sleep bonnet/curlers and housecoat. It was a hoot!
Take this job and shove it 🤪😊
Great song but Paycheck was a scary dude. I remember interviewing him and worrying that if I asked the wrong question he might punch me.
Little Jimmy Dickens’ “Take an old cold tater and wait” and “May the bird of paradise fly up your nose”.
Most everything of Roger Miller, a lot of John Prine, and everything of Lester “Road Hog” Moran and his Cadillac Cowboys!
"Lester road dog Moran" That's The Statler Brothers that was their kind of jab at Old Time country radio
Queen of my double wide trailer.
A great song by Sammy Kershaw!
Yes!! This one should definitely be on the list!
“She said he rebuilds engines and his name is Earl. He’s the Charlie Daniels of the torque wrench.”
He's right. I'm white and I love them. Grandma got ran over by a reindeer.
Bobby bares dropkick me jesus through the goalpost of life
Check out The Jogger by Bobby Bare lol
Or the mermaid
Wow - took me a long time of scrolling before I found another Pinkard and Bowden fan. "Help Me Make It Through the Yard", "Trailer Park Woman", "Shake a Snake", etc. But I also grew up on 70's country music, and I find a lot of those songs funny now. Donna Fargo - "I'm the happiest girl in the whole USA", Johnny Paycheck "Take this job and shove it", C W McCall - "Convoy", Buck Owens "Act Naturally". They don't write them, or sing them, like they used to.
All great songs. Pickard and Bowden were VERY talented but some of their songs did cause a stir. My favorite song by them is "Libyan on a Jet Plane". I just love the play on words they use!
What?! No " I'm my own grandpa" ?! There's hundreds that could fit on this list. Ray Stevens and Cledus T Judd specialized in them. Bobby Bare and Jerry Reed did a lot. David Allen Coe had some that weren't really family friendly. I think my favorite was from a guy out a Texas named Kevin Fowler, "don't touch my Willie"
There are so many more. I think I'll do another one about crazy songs just using the great suggestions folks have commented about.
@@CountryMusicTimeMachine
LOL
I absolutely loved Ben Colder's, aka Sheb Wooley, version of Hello Walls.
Who remembers Kenny Price’s ‘The Shortest Song In The World’? By number of air plays it might have been one of the most popular records of all time. The DJ’s would play it to fill up a short gap before a commercial, news break, station I.D., or signing off.
I would not doubt that. The key is if the DJ's logged it when they played it. I do know that when I used to do the news we would always look for long songs or those that duration was a number like 3:00, 4:00 or even 3:30!
LOL...Yep ! MY vote for #1, I put it up on my channel, 8yrs ago...you can watch/listen anytime !
@@CountryMusicTimeMachine Try working a a TV station, running film and the only bathroom was on the opposite corner of the building. More than once I returned to a ringing phone and broken film. I also had to monitor the radio station, repair the old equipment . At 1800, I had to produce & direct a live newscast. That included slipping in and out of the studio to rest the cameras, then back to the control room to switch cameras. I worked an average of seven 20 hour shifted every two weeks. That was 50 years ago. Most of the radio station was vacuum tube, and about half the TV station, as well. The mess hall was several miles away, so now real meals.
My favorite is Ghost Chickens in the Sky
I'll have to UA-cam that.
@@nickhill8612that's Johnny Cash
Ray Stevens "Sittin Up With The Dead"
I love this song. It has a good video too
Mississippi squirrel revival! Love that one
Me too!
One of the funniest damn things he ever did, especially when you're watching the video!
Marie Laveau by Bobby Bare. How can anyone forget that one tooth?
CLASSIC!!!!!
Davis allan coe YOU NEVER EVEN CALL ME BY MY NAME
Good one
Amen!
Written by Steve Goodman and John Prine who were each responsible for other classic funny country songs (and quite a few great hits as well).
These are great, but there are so many. Here’s a few honorable mentions. First off sticking with the 420 friendly theme is “Wildwood weed” by Jim Stafford. Then there’s “My Girl Bill” also by Jim Stafford. And finally, “One Piece at a Time” by Johnny Cash!
Yep, those are great. "One Piece at a Time" is on my playlist that I listen to everyday!
Yep One Piece at a time is good. Good way to build a car from parts 😊
“Drop kick me, Jesus, through the goalposts of life”
No doubt that is one that will be in the next episode.
How about: Red Neck, White Socks and Blue Ribbon Beer?@@CountryMusicTimeMachine
Also, how about some of the following Jerry Reed songs. "When You're Hot, You're Hot", "The Uptown Poker Club", "Lord, Mr. Ford", "The Coin Machine", "The Bird", "Another Puff", & "Alabama Wild Man".
Whiskey for my men and bear for my horses. A lot of people had trouble with this song when it came out.But I know several horses one of them a grand champion endurance racing horse that loved beer.
A great song!
Thank you so much for this reminder of the beauty of country music! When the day is too long and nights too short, what a blessing country music is to my soul! Whoo-Hoo! Fire up that pickup truck, it's time to drive on down to the honky tonk for a long, tall, cold one!
I love your message. When I'm writing these scripts, recording the videos and editing, that's what I hope I can pass on to folks. It's a a lot of work to do but I'm having a blast doing it!
I love Boxcar Willie! Ain't Gonna be Your Day! Funny tune!
There's an entire sub-genre that can be called "Chicken-Fried Country," after the title of one various-artists collection album along those lines that was directly marketed!
Have to put Roy Clark's "Thank God ND greyhound" in there I still listen to it today!!
Yep, Roy will be in a future episode.
Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in bed. Kinky Friedman
KINKY ! ! ! LOL..I got all his albums...He ran for Gov. for Texas., several years ago! (Lost tho
Jim Stafford - Wildwood Weed
😮Gitarzan. And all Ray Stevens
How about 'Amos Moses' by Jerry Reed.
Anything by Ben Colder / Sheb Wooley. Ain't been no colder here 😊
Yes, it's very funny, like 15 beers ago, Big Sweet John almost persuaded
Tobey Keith " I Will Never Smoke Weed With Willie Nelson Again"
Dead skunk in the middle of the road. Ha ha ha 😂
That one is coming in a future episode. Too crazy not to include it.
I have a Dr. Demento collection that includes that one. I really miss his show.
Hopefully you'll keep up this series, I'm looking forward to learning more these
There will be a part 2. And some of the comments here will be included as I have received some great ideas.
David Allan Coe could have a couple there.
Brad Paisley - The Cigar Song and Ode The Toilet. My dad and I laughed at those two songs when we heard them live for the first time. Than we played them for mom and laughed even harder. I think I laughed for both for about a yr.
Paisley- “Long Sermon on a Pretty Sunday “ is a favorite of mine.
3rd Rock from the Sun
There's an Aussie named Kevin Bloody Wilson, who has some doozies. They're definitely R-Rated tunes, but they are hilarious, and the musicians are really good! And then there's that old favorite..."Tennessee Bird Walk"!
crazy songs by Homer and Jethro were the absolute the best!
Zac Brown Band "Sick Em On A Chicken"
“Southern Air”
Tennessee Bird Walk”
“Where’s the Dress?”
Love these. Especially “Where’s the Dress?”
Don't y'all fret about that landing none... I got up early this morning and put on a set of them Bigfoot mud gripper tires.
Humphrey The Camel
Kevin, this is a great show. I just need to hear something that did not happen today, if you know what I mean. Your channel is great.
I appreciate that. I have fun doing it that's for sure. Looking back and not only enjoying the history but also enjoying the music is why I do it.
Wildwood Weed by Jim Stafford. Ray Stevens' "Sittin' Up With The Dead".
So many great songs that would fit in this category. "Baby Likes to Rock It" by the Tractors, "Trailerhood" by Toby Keith, and "Ticks" by Brad Paisley to name a few. Still I enjoyed your selections. Thanks for the memories.
Most everything by Ray Stevens
he sucked and minnie pearl told him so
Mississippi squarrel revival by ray stevens lol and the streak lol
Hank Williams Sr. had a bunch over the years. Many of his "Luke the Drifter" songs were humorous, such as "Please Make Up You Mind", "Just Waitin'", and "Everything's Okay". You could do an entire episode dedicated to Roger Miller or Ray Stevens. There's also "Smoke Smoke Smoke (That Cigarette)" by Tex Williams, "Divorce Me C.O.D" and "So Round, So Firm, So Fully Packed" by Merle Travis, "You Better Not Do That" by Tommy Collins, "The Philadelphia Fillies" by Del Reeves, "Ten Little Bottles" by Johnny Bond... way too many to list here.
I love Hank and Tex. I especially like the song "Smoke Smoke Smoke (That Cigarette)" by Tex Williams. Good choice!
Dixie Chicks "Goodbye Earl"
Its more subtle, but I thought of John Conlee's 'I dont remember loving you.' It's definitely crazy. I also immediately thought of ' You're the reason our kids are ugly.' Nice list.
The Rodeo Song (X-Rated). Had me rolling on the floor when my soon to be Mother-in-law (strait laced) played it for the family.
Kacey Musgraves "Biscuits And Gravy"
Can't find I don't want to go home by Bobby Bare very funny
Oh I've listened to most of these. And i love them!
There are so many Country songs that fit this category that, if you wanted to make an album collection of them, it would probably be at least 50 albums of 12 songs each and then, you'd probably be leaving out over 200
That is 100% true!
There are a lot of crazy country songs out there. Kenny Chesney's She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy, Toby Keith have several, but Beer For My Horses with Willie Nelson is one of the big ones, Trace Adkins Brown Cow Brown Chicken, Blake Shelton's Hillbilly Bone with Trace Adkins, The Dixie Chicks' Goodbye Earl, You Can't roller Skate In A Buffalo Herd by Roger Miller, Rodney Carrington's Dancing With A Man, Neal McCoy's Billy Got His Beer Goggles On, Queen Of My Double Wide Trailer by Sammy Kershaw, Brad Paisley's No I In Beer, Hot Country Knights with Travis Tritt with Pick Her Up, Maddie and Tae's Girl In A Country Song, Big and Rich Save A Horse Ride A Cowboy, Maren Morris' Rich, Joe Nichols' Tequila Makes Her Clothes Come off, Carrie Underwood's Last Name, Confederate Railroad's Trashy Women, Jaron and The Long Road To Love with Pray For You, Teri Clark's Girls Lie To, Did I Shaved My Legs For This? By Deana Carter, I Don't Even Know Your Name by Alan Jackson, Drop Kick Me Jesus Through The Goal Post of Life by Bobby Bare, You Can't Have Your Kate and Edith Too by the Statler Brothers, I Love NASCAR by Cletus T Judd, Cleopatra Queen of Denial by Pam Tillis, Its Hard To Kiss The Lips At Night That Chew Your Ass Out All Day Long by The Notorious Cherry Bombs, Guys Do It All The Time by Mindy McCreedy, Brand New Girlfriend by Steve Holy, That's My Story by Collin Raye, If I Said You Had a Beautiful Body Would You Hold It Against Me by Bellamy Brothers, Lifestyles of The Not So Rich and Famous by Tracy Byrd, Only Prettier by Miranda Lambert, Fish by Craig Campbell, The Worst Country Song Ever by Brantley Gilbert, Hardy and Toby Keith, Pants by Walker Hayes, I'm The Only Hell (My Mama Raised) by Johnny Paycheck, I'm The Only Hell (My Mamma Raised) by Allie Colleen (Brooks, yes is is Garth's daughter), All My Ex's Live In Texas by George Strait, You Picked a Fine Time To Leave Me Lucille by Kenny Rogers, Dick Down In Dallas by Trey Lewis and Here's A Quarter (And Call Someone Who Cares) by Travis Tritt.. A lot of them have more than one like Tracy Byrd have Watermelon Crawl, Blake Shelton's Some Beach, Dierks Bentley's Drunk on a Plane and so on.
That's a great list. There are so many and many were hits!
I was gonna say nothing on that list is really that crazy, but then you hit bobby bare. Then the notorious cherry bombs. Ok you got a good list. Still a few I would argue not that crazy.
@@kevinlesch9656 The song titles may not sound that crazy, but some of the lyrics are.
No country song is a dumb song. I love country music that much. I’m howling in laughter at your jokes too LOL
I'm glad you enjoy it. I got more coming.
I remember hearing a parody of "Hey Loretta" where the lyrics were changed to "hey Loretta you smell just like my Irish setter". This was back in the late 60's or early 70's. I've never been able to find it!
WOW, brings back a lot of memories. Never smoke the weed. The smell, If it smelled like that bad. I can image what it would taste like. Jerry Reed had a crazy song about his wife, "Its PMS, I guess" That was crazy, like Ray Stevens, Scribe to cable, Talking about women's product at the dinner table. Great video.
Thanks so much. I did try weed, LONG AGO, but didn't like it. But I still enjoy the songs. And yep, Jerry Reed is AMAZING!
Thank you so much. I just found your channel and I love it!!
So glad! Spread the word. It's a lot of fun to do these videos.
Many of Ray Stevens' songs were crazy country songs. That's what he was mostly known for.
Yep. He will be on every episode.
3 of those I never heard and I would add The Bird and When You're Hot , Your Hot by Jerry Reed
Jerry Reed is an icon!
“I’m Going to Hire a Wino to Decorate Our Home,” my favorite crazy country song!
That song has stuck with me for years.
Wow! Great compilation. Most of them were new to me. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed!
RAY STEVENS: THE STREAK
Or how about "the haircut song"
My vote has perhaps the longest named song ever....
"I'm going to hire a wino and he'll decorate our home" Ferlin Husky
Oliver Anthony “Rich Men North of Richmond “
Finally Friday- George Jones
The Lone Ranger - George Jones
I'm A People - George Jones
The King is Gone and So Are You-George Jones
Love George Jones ❤❤
I love the Possum too! Thanks for the recommendations.
@@CountryMusicTimeMachine my pleasure.
I Didn't Know the Gun Was Loaded, The Sasquatch Song, The One On the Right Is On the Left, Draft Dodger Rag, and The Streak are just a few that pop to mind.
Great choices!
David Allen Coe You don't even call me by my name.
I was drunk the day my mom got out of prison.
@@CountryMusicTimeMachine
Another of my favorites is Put another log on the fire.
"You never even call me by my name"!
@@kevinlesch9656
Thank you for letting me know the correct name. My brain gets things muddled sometimes.
Men by the Forester Sisters. And Women by the Flying Burrito Brothers.
Agree easily half of Roger Miller's discography would make an excellent Crazy Country song video, but a long one !!!
Sixteen chickens and a tambourine 😂
I love country music but until now I heard these songs before, but until now I’ve these are funny. I’m here laughing.
Glad you like it!
Asleep At The Wheel
David Allen Coe- You Never Called Me By My Name ❤ Best country song ever written
I WAS GROWLING UP WITH COUNTRY MUSIC 🎶
I always liked "I'd rather have a bottle in front of than a frontal lobotomy".
Also Ray Stevens' "Get your tongue out of my mouth (I'm kissing you goodbye)".
Excellent choices!
Thank you so much. I facilitate a Music and Memories class for people with dementia and their caregivers. My clients are 36-100 years old. Next week I'm going to have the theme crazy and play some of these songs.
That is absolutely wonderful Laurie. I really hope they not only enjoy it but it brings back some great memories! If they really get into it, show them the other episodes from all the years of music history starting in 1940! I would love to do a video chat with all of them one day if you feel it's appropriate! Have fun!
@@CountryMusicTimeMachine oh my gosh Im sure they would love it. I will let you know.
Johnny Cash, the bug who crawled around the world, he has an entire album of humorous songs. And of course Shebb Woolies alter ego Ben Colder. There were at least a dozen groups and individuals in the early 60s that put out entire albums of humorous songs and let us never forget Tom T Hall.
Showdown 'Rodeo Song'
How many country singers does it take to change a light bulb? 4. One to do it, 3 to sing about how much they miss the old one.😁 R.I.P. Jimmy Buffett (It's 5 o'clock somewhere).
I can't stop laughing at Southern Air by Ray Stevens
Great song
I like Willie's ain't going down on broke back mtn
Wow. I don't know that one but will be checking it out!
I’m starting to remember these. They were so funny. And Jerry Reed was cute.
You Can’t Rollerskate In A Buffalo heard by Rodger Miller, my grandpa would sing and play his songs in the tractor all the time when I was a kid, and at 86 he still does. We let him run the combine this year and I decided to go ride take a ride with him and he sang King Of The Road
Great story. Buffalo is coming in episode 4!
I quite enjoy all of those songs.
I do too. I will try to release another episode with more songs this weekend. There are so many good ones.
I Got You - by Dwight Yokum one of my favorites when my husband & I first married. Sounded a lot like your first five years.
Thanks Tracey. I love almost anything by Dwight!
Now I feel old, listened on the radio to most of them songs when they were new, while working me ass off, and loved it the whole time.
Me too!
What about that Merle Haggard song, Today I Started Loving You Again!? I think this has to be one of those crazy silly songs, because how do you stop loving someone, and then re-start loving them again?
It's a great song from Merle. But he had so many.
One of my favorites is sug by Jim Wood, it's called "Liquored Up Pickeem Up Truck"
This classic country music at it's best.....
