The one Nashville sub-genre tthat never gets the respect it deserves is the comic-novelty song. From Jimmie Rodgers’ “In the Jailhouse Now” to Tracy Lawrence’s “It Only Takes One Bar (To Make a Prison),” exaggerated shaggy-dog stories and awful puns have provided country music with some of its finest moments.

for your money it doesn’t get any better than when joe diffie sings “pickup man”, “third rock from the sun” (the themesong), “junior’s in love” (a classic), and the most hillarious song’s i’ve ever heard: “good brown gravy” (with the bass singer echoing the chorus) and “the cows came home” (what a statement). these songs bring back great memories from my senior year of high school which was a fun time. however, i don’t think i’ll ever be putting good brown gravy in my hair anytime soon!
