Kenny Rogers does a lot of storytelling in his music . RIP Kenny. Another one of his greats is “coward of the county “ . “Jolene “ is one of Dollys greatest also . It’s great To see you guys touching all music genres
Kenny Rogers songs " Coward Of The County " IS MY FAVORITE Much meaning to that song! -- "Lucille" -- "She Believes In Me" -- "You and I" -- "We've got tonight" - "Daytime Friend" & soooooo many more thanks for bringing Country to your channel!!!!!!! Love You Fam 💚💚💚
Yeah, like you said, this is a big theme in country music, to make simple sounding lyrics, that are really about something else. The Gambler isn't telling him how to play poker; he is telling him how to live his life.
Wow Nostalgia * I Cried * My Daddy Just passed of Covid last year He was 73! and this is one of the songs He sang and played He had a 63 Fender Strat Electric HUGE Amp And Many Acoustic's -- My Daddy was a country boy!

All He sang was Country and Elvis! God I am still crying I miss him so Much... but anyway........ Thank YOU for doing COUNTRY -- Always tells a story!!! that touches the HEART --- I love all genre's but Country Music IS MY HEART!!! My Dad sang Merle Haggard ( The Hag He was called ) Willie Nelson Johnny Cash Don Williams Elvis George Jones Hank Williams Conway Twitty and so many LEGENDS Of Country!!! & My Son is 31 and a Pro Poker Player since he was in his early 20's! He's BAD ASS LOL! Anyway ------ List: Willie - "Always On My Mind" -- "Blue Eyes Crying in the rain" -- Merle Haggard - "Mama Tried" -- "Silver Wings" - "Today I started loving you again" -- George Jones - " He stopped loving her today" -- "She thinks I still care" -- Poncho & Lefty with Willie & Merle ------- Johnny Cash - " Folsom Prison Blues " - "Ring Of Fire" - "Hurt" ( DEFINITELY ) His last song -- "I walk the line" -- " Man in black " -------- SOOO Many with the Older LEGENDS --- Anything Alan Jackson George Strait ------ 80's I SO LOVE KENNY ROGERS!!! I USE TO PLAY HIS MUSIC ON MY 8 TRACK PLAYER!!! YES GO DOWN THE COUNTRY RABBIT HOLE!!! THANKS FOR THIS I NEEDED THIS SO MUCH FAM!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤😢😢😢
Reckless you’ve got a pretty good mind and way of thinking. I’ve heard some of these songs you do for years and you point shit out that I’ve never noticed. Thanks
Home Free did an absolutely stunning acapella cover of this as a tribute to Kenny after his death. They also did a collaboration WITH Kenny on “Children go where I send thee”
Sir I grew up in the country right next to the rocky mountains of Montana, yesvwecare pure 100? country. We love the old country songs. Lots of love, an fighting men an women there. God gave us life to live in the country an I thank him every day every heart beat.
I love this lady's reaction. You can tell she is focused with an open mind and i think a true music lover. Kenny rogers "coward of the county" is another good story with good morals
Hey Guys… I don’t like Rap or Hop Hop at ALL!! But Jelly Roll played on a the Grand Ol Opry and he got pretty emotional being there and playing… maybe check it out sometime…
Ray Charles got into country music in the later part of his singing career. He said he loved the stories. He also did a duet with Willie Nelson that is fantastic when you are in the mood for country again. "Seven Spanish Angels." Willie seems almost nervous to be on stage with such a legend.
Kenny had some great songs. This one and "Coward of the County" have always been my two favorites. For Dolly, "Wind Beneath My Wings", "I will Always Love You", and "9 to 5".
Check out Don William's Tulsa time and I believe in you ! Charlie Richs The most beautiful girl in the world, behind closed doors, Rollin with the flow or good time Charlie's got the blues. Pirates of the Mississippi's Feed Jake!
They did a TV movie based on this song with Kenny. Ruby, Don't Take Your Love To Town by Kenny Rogers and the First Edition and When I get where I'm going by Brad Paisley and Dolly Parton
...ehh, I think the word you are speaking of is 'simile' ..either way gotsta love some Kenny Rogers. ..and his wholesome, warm, and inviting tones. ..stellar reaction as usual. ..always a smile watching you 2 and your playful chemistry
Before he turned Country, Kenny Rogers and the First Edition did a song "Check What Condition My Condition Was In". I've heard it described as Acid Rock, but I have no idea what that means.
Your next Kenny Rogers reaction video you do should be "The Coward Of The County" and just like "The Gambler" they were both made into made for TV Movies. And another Country artist you really should react to is Hank Williams Jr "Family Tradition" and if you do, react to the live performance!!
Lady was written by Lionel Ritchie. The later version with Kenny and Lionel is great. You can see the admiration and friendship the two of them have for each other.
the advice from the gambler about the game is a metaphor for the game of life. I believe that old gambler drifted off to sleep, he broke even....he passed away.
Kinda pop. I had the 45 of the Gambler when I was eight. Coward of the County is a popular Kenny Rodgers song. They are using the analogy of Poker to represent life.
Alright! Going to have to give you a follow based on the strength of this reaction, and Everlast’s “What it’s Like”. Those are two songs for life. How to live it, and observe it. Strong choices for songs and reaction!
Good reaction...you might like merle haggard mama tried. Also Martina McBride independence day or gods will or concrete angle. She has an amazing voice. Ty.
Coward of the County is another good song from Kenny Rogers.
100% agreed.
That's a rough one.
Metaphor for life.
"Somewhere in the darkness, the Gambler he broke even." RIP Kenny. such a good song about life and filled with some many metaphors and analogies.
I think the word you may be looking for is metaphor. Kenny is using poker advice as a metaphor for life.
He was thinking of double entendre.
@@nigelsreptarachnids5931 Metaphor is more correct. Double entendre usually second meaning is dirty minded.
"She Believes in Me", "Through The Years", "Love The World Away", "You Decorated My Life". Great love songs.
"Ruby, Don't Take Your Love To Town" is one of Kenny's best. Poignant story of a war veteran.
I 100% agree!
Kenny Rogers does a lot of storytelling in his music . RIP Kenny. Another one of his greats is “coward of the county “ . “Jolene “ is one of Dollys greatest also . It’s great
To see you guys touching all music genres
Kenny Rogers songs " Coward Of The County " IS MY FAVORITE Much meaning to that song! -- "Lucille" -- "She Believes In Me" -- "You and I" -- "We've got tonight" - "Daytime Friend" & soooooo many more thanks for bringing Country to your channel!!!!!!! Love You Fam 💚💚💚
Your one of the few reactors that actually understood he was talking about life (double entendre), great reaction ❤️
This song was so successful, Kenny took on the role of the gambler in several TV movies based on the song.
Enjoyed the reaction! Sang along the whole time! He is talking about life for sure. Keep up these great song reactions!
Yeah, like you said, this is a big theme in country music, to make simple sounding lyrics, that are really about something else. The Gambler isn't telling him how to play poker; he is telling him how to live his life.
One of my favorite songs by Dolly Parton is "Jolene". If you haven't already reacted to that one, please do so when you can.
DOLLY - "Coat of Many Colors" 🤙
"The Greatest" is another great song by him with a great message.
Willy Nelson. Great country..lovelovelove ❤️✌🏻🌸
It’s a metaphor for life
My mum is a big country fan and so i know a lot songs of Kenny Rodgers but first time i hear and understand the lyrics.
Greetings from Germany
He's giving great life advice. Great song ❤
"Lucille", "Coward Of The County" are some other great Kenny Rogers songs to check out!
Double entendre is the expression you were looking for, words that have 2 meanings. And, yes the card game is a metaphor for life.
"Metaphor"
Its also a movie Kenny Rogers did - The Gambler
React to Lut Gaye. Based on a true story and gets me every time. Bout a hitman and a bride
The song is a masterpiece. The story is so sad, gave me goosebumps
Even without the lyrics you still feel the story It's mad

Some more Great 90’s Country to check out is Travis Tritt” TROUBLE” Sawyer Brown “Bettys Bein Bad” Joe Diffie “ Pickup Man” Lonestar “Amazed”!!!
Middle school. Riding to school with Mom playing Kenny Roger's greatest hits. Good times. lol I still know all of these songs by heart.
It’s actually a metaphor for life! You got it right!
I’ve never heard a Kenny Rogers song I didn’t like ❤️
Lessons not just for card game but the game of Life. Good advice in this ballad.
Check out The Highwaymen, Highwayman. Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson, and Waylon Jennings a supergroup of the best country artists.
Its a metaphor for life...."you gotta know when to hold them, know when to fold them, know when to walk away, and know when to run"
React to Tim McGraw "Don't Take the Girl."
Ray Charles got into country music in the later part of his singing career. He said he loved the stories.
He also did a duet with Willie Nelson that is fantastic when you are in the mood for country again. "Seven Spanish Angels." Willie seems almost nervous to be on stage with such a legend.
Love Kenny. So many beautiful songs
He’s making an analogy.
He’s talking about cards… but he is really talking about life.
It’s a beautiful piece of storytelling.
I wish that I could hurt that way again great song by Kenny Rogers
One of the best R.I.P will ever be other great singer like him
Talk about Dolly. You should listen to "I will always love you. (WHITNEY had covered it)
rip to him
Kenny had some great songs. This one and "Coward of the County" have always been my two favorites. For Dolly, "Wind Beneath My Wings", "I will Always Love You", and "9 to 5".
react to Kenny Rogers - Lucille
It’s so nice to see young adults appreciate the music I grew up on! Much love! ❤️
KENNY - "Coward of the County" 🤙
RIP for a legend in music AND movies!! Love Kenny Rogers!!!! 😉❤✌🏼
Its a allegory for life.
Kenny actually starred in a series of TV movies called The Gambler. This video was directly related to it.
This is a metaphor for life in general.
Double entendre ..Coward of the County by Kenny is a great one
Check out Don William's Tulsa time and I believe in you ! Charlie Richs The most beautiful girl in the world, behind closed doors, Rollin with the flow or good time Charlie's got the blues. Pirates of the Mississippi's Feed Jake!

ONE OF THE BEST STORY TELLERS IN THE BUSINESS.....HE IS MISSED. RIP KENNY!

Your next Kenny Rogers reaction video you do should be "The Coward Of The County" and just like "The Gambler" they were both made into made for TV Movies.

Double Entendre

the advice from the gambler about the game is a metaphor for the game of life. I believe that old gambler drifted off to sleep, he broke even....he passed away.
Good morning too you both ha ya terrific day much love always🌹
Kinda pop. I had the 45 of the Gambler when I was eight. Coward of the County is a popular Kenny Rodgers song. They are using the analogy of Poker to represent life.
The song is a Metaphor for life, I have also heard people refer to a metaphor as "a Double" meaning it has a double meaning to it.
Kenny Roger also had a tv show called The Gambler.
Turn the Page by Bob Seger would be a good follow up to this song.
Have you done whiskey lullaby with Brad Paisley and Allison Krauss?
Alright! Going to have to give you a follow based on the strength of this reaction, and Everlast’s “What it’s Like”. Those are two songs for life. How to live it, and observe it. Strong choices for songs and reaction!
Good reaction...you might like merle haggard mama tried. Also Martina McBride independence day or gods will or concrete angle. She has an amazing voice. Ty.
