The odds a Top 100 country song will refer to alcohol are 1 in 5. The odds one of these songs will contain a reference to “mama” are 1 in 7.14. The odds one will contain a reference to the word “train” are 1 in 11.11 and the odds one will contain a reference to the word “prison” are 1 in 33.33. Least surprising, the odds one of the songs will contain a reference to tears or crying are 1 in 3.23.

How about semis? Commando Cody and The Lost Planet Airmen did a song called “Mama Hated Diesels” ...one of the best.

Seems like the “new country” drivel the kids listen to is 50 percent hooking up (as in one-night stands, not farm machinery) and 50 percent booze.

I kind of miss songs about old dogs and rodeo cowboys.

I’m right there with you. The new stuff is normally infused with all kinds of electronica, and the lyrical content is no less perverse and raunchy than what you encounter in hip hop.
