Mine would have to be "Teddy Bear" by Red Sovine.Even tho I love the song,growin up with a trucker for a dad,it makes me tear up & feel like a puss every time I hear it lol.
I'd probably have to say North Dakota by Chris Knight. I know it's a touch eery, but something about it hits a little too close to home.
Def has to be "If you get there before i do" by Collin Raye.But country music is full of crying songs im sure that ill remember a better one that will put another tear in my beer
I wouldnt take my girl to the dog fight cause Id know she'd win.. shes quite the nasty ol bitch when she aint got her chew in.. you might think Im a crazy, but i tell you no lie.. I probably be better off dead or even married to a guy.. dont know the name that song.. I like it though..
actually,another one that gets me,even tho it aint really country,is "white trash beautiful" by everlast.Don't make me cry,but it does tug at the heart strings a lil.It kinda makes me remember bein a kid ridin with dad in his rig,some nights we couldn't make it home & had to just jump back in the sleeper.even tho I was just a passenger,when I got to go on the road with dad was really the only time I got to spend with him for the most part.I've rode with him in severe snow storms,& I remember times he couldn't make it home cuz of the snow.just watching that vid,I can only imagine what my mom went thru,knowing he was livin on coffee & trucker speed,& gettin drunk when he got home just to try & sleep.I know my wife worries about me any time I do roof work,& thats fairly safe.
I'm so lonesome I could cry gets me Hank Williams Sr.We sang it at a friends funeral last week and there was not a dry eye in the whole crowd
Sittin' on the Dock on the Bay by Otis Redding. A kinda' happy sounding song but it has a dark background. Makes me kinda' sad.
whiskey lullaby & concrete angel are both great sad songs.martina mcbride & allison krauss are probably my favorite modern-day female singers.watching the old vids of dolly singin"i will always love you" can be a little sad too.granted,it's disturbing that porter wagoner was an old ass man bonin a teenagerbut there was obviously feelings there.she used to be in tears by the end every time she sang it.
oh,another good sad song,is Gary Allen,"the best I ever had".he wrote it for his wife.she killed herself right as he was starting to get famous.If you watch the vid,it's really sad
