Best ever country singer born in Essex, UK

[@darthvex1971]

He's British? Wtf?

[@desireehendrickson1951]

Just heard this song on Joe Pickett series and fell in love with it never heard of Billy Bragg but I am loving you already!❤

[@crlchs]

Love that Billy Bragg! Artists like him don't come around often...Bob Dylan, Woody Guthrie, Levon Helm, Shane McGowan to name a few...invite you into their world - very generous and kind of them. God bless them all!

[@hitchchristos257]

Tha backing vocals on this track are insane. Soooo goood.

[@Benjamin-om3ih]

I'm so grateful this session is on KZbin. It's really wonderful

[@thomasdungl8493]

So much great fine version, of such a great song, which I have heard the first time in May 14 ... thank you so much for sharing!

[@pelotasdad]

what a great sound this is song has when played live, with a dobro..... the mermaid avenue collection is truly a masterpiece. so thankful bragg and wilco brought woody’s unpublished songs to life.... thanks for posting this.

[@BlindWillieJackson]

He is not playing his Dobro. He is playing a pedal steel guitar. It's all good. . .

[@chrisinfidel]

Fantastic.

[@nixieNICLA]

He's definitely got his own unique sound thank goodness and a major skill in writing great music.

[@clash31263]

The lyrics are by Woody Guthrie

[@pbobak73]

@@clash31263 yup, but Billy is a legendary writer in his own right!

I lived in a place called Okfuskee And I had a little girl in a holler treeI said, little girl, it's plain to see Ain't nobody that can sing like me Ain't nobody that can sing like me She said it's hard for me to see How one little boy got so ugly Yes my little girly that might be But there ain't nobody that can sing like me Ain't nobody that can sing like me Way over yonder in the minor key Way over yonder in the minor key There ain't nobody that can sing like me We walked down by the Buckeye CreekTo see the frog eat the goggle-eye beeTo hear the west wind whistle to the eastThere ain't nobody that can sing like meAin't nobody that can sing like me Oh my little girly will you let me seeWay over yonder where the wind blows freeNobody can see in our holler tree And there ain't nobody that can sing like meAin't nobody that can sing like me Way over yonder in the minor keyWay over yonder in the minor keyAin't nobody that can sing like me Her mama cut a switch from a cherry treeAnd laid it on the she and meIt stung lots worse than a hive of beesBut there ain't nobody that can sing like meAin't nobody that can sing like me Now I have walked a long long waysAnd I still look back to my Tanglewood daysI've led lots of girls since then to straySaying ain't nobody that can sing like meAin't nobody that can sing like me Way over yonder in the minor keyWay over yonder in the minor keyAin't nobody that can sing like me Ain't nobody that can sing like me

[@pelotasdad]

Vicente Vidal most excellent-cy, werdz wize.....

[@devonflyfisher]

One of the many great snippets of wisdom from Billy......"....alliteration trumps grammar, every time...."....has some bearing on this song but, even more on that great 'Stones classic - "I can get Satisfaction" :-)

[@okrajoe]

Ain't nobody that can sing like me -- Intel & Bing team up to present a great number here....

[@neridawalker6623]

The most subdued I have ever seen for Billy.

[@charlyfare6346]

Great tune

[@horse5407]

I love music

[@smoath]

Yeah, music's good

[@darnhard]

fan bloody tastic

[@neilvandalsem8192]

Okfuskee and Buckeye Creek are actual places. I've even duck hunted at Buckeye Creek. Okfuskee refers to the county where Woody Guthrie was born and lived as a child.

[@Dona-fu9zh]

Really??? admitting to hunting, killing ducks : ( you're game!

[@VictorRochaGaming]

Brilliant

[@teenyparks3671]

This is my favorite version of this song! Is it available on iTunes or other? Love the pedal steel. 👌🏻

[@useacondompeople]

B.B. like no other...... !

[@tinaspicer605]

useacondompeoplel who gives a fuck

[@barnowlboxes35]

Harken back to a time after the revolution and before the Civil war. Way down yonder in a minor key.

[@dperez611]

What happened to the woman who sang with them ? I loved the contrast of their voices together

[@shelaghmoore445]

Anyone noticed Ed Sheeran has lifted the tune for "Galway Girl?" yet? "She played the fiddle in an Irish band, but she fell in love with anEnglishman" Really Eddie ?

[@blackmagikarpgaming310]

Brian Fallon also ripped off this tune for his band The Gaslight Anthem's song "Red at Night"... Still sounds awesome though, like I thought it was tastefully done.

[@billhardy3442]

A little Verse Mix-up but who cares! Great Song! Well Done!

[@bensoncharo1371]

Heard from Joe pickett 😊

[@japannational-mb2563]

times change

[@agento1001]

Looks like Billy Bragg is going to send me to Joe Pickett lmao, never heard of this show.

[@irishace11]

He's singing with an american affect in his voice because it's a Woodie Guthrie song, I presume.

[@johnkchristensen]

Woody’s lyrics bragg’s toon

[@pelotasdad]

billy walked into hugh laurie’s world.... and is a better man because of it.

[@dondraper2488]

I didn't know Jeremy Corbyn sung old Woody Guthrie songs....

[@junkyardjulie]

Life

[@rsolari]

There ain't nobody that can sing like me..(8)

[@Gngrcpl]

Joel Rafael covers it best imo

[@narabdela]

Billy wrote the music, Woody the words. This version is original, not a cover.

[@bigleebrink]

Lovely song and all but it sounds a little like Billy is losing his cockney accent in his sing voice. Shame really. Great song though.

[@HerveBoisde]

im pretty sure he was just having fun with the overtly country backing instruments, pedal steel etc.

[@squamish4244]

+bigleebrink That was intentional. It's a Woody Guthrie song about a place in the American south.

[@bigleebrink]

Fair enough guys. Just so used to hearing him with natural accent, just threw me off a little. Haha.

[@paulthomson8824]

"MY" SIGNATURE TUNE....

[@paulthomson8824]

I'LL LEARN HIM TO SPEAK, EVENTUALLY....

[@paulthomson8824]

IN THIS VERSION HE IS USING THE PROPER/CORRECT GRAMMAR = USING "WHO CAN SING LIKE ME" = THE OTHER VERSION USES BAD GRAMMAR...

[@michaeljohnston3741]

Funny as you said in the other post on this very song. He is using bad grammar. Make you're mind up

[@jpcpm1340]

​@@michaeljohnston3741 ​ You should have stated "Make your mind up"., not "Make you're mind up". When you criticize others, make sure that you are correct.

[@analogueoverdigital929]

She said it's hard for me to see, how one little boy got so ugly Yes girly that might be But there ain't nobody that can sing like me.

[@paulthomson8824]

BUT, HE IS USING BAD GRAMMAR = ...WHO CAN SING LIKE ME = DON'T LET HIM GET AWAY WITH USING BAD GRAMMAR....
