Cowpoke - Hank Williams Jr.

[@viciousKev]

This is the best version of this song

Totally agree! Can't find another this good.

Colter Wall 2nd best version

[@walkerbutler2929]

Written by Arizona's own Stan Jones, who also wrote Ghost Riders in the Sky. Stan wrote these songs while working as a park ranger at Death Valley in the 1940s.

[@ArcoZakus]

Without songwriters, singers would not even have a tune to hum. Thanks for giving Stan Jones the credit he deserves for this one.

Hahahaha Love it ....Old country that's it and the guys at work wonder I not even that old Rather listen to old country than today's country pop Music 🎶🎶🎶

Glad the whole Ballads of the Hills &Plains was here took me back to when I was healthy,Desired knowledge & didn't have to be afraid of the World. Thanks

How do we get this one Spotify lol. Like what can we even do?

[@funkyllama639]

Try the Dave Stamey version, also very nice.

Hank Williams Jr. 🤠

[@anncook553]

I wish Ballads of the Hills and Plains was available on CD. Takes me back to my young days

[@pennagainagain7491]

Keep saying that, loud and clear, until They hear you!

[@dustinbotkin2426]

Find a young kid they can take the whole album off of KZbin and put it on a cd for you

[@pennagainagain7491]

ok.Checked out the three bones of contention. Hank is being his balladeer best, puts a tiny sad break in each line, guitars for backup; Colter has the macho baritone and and a rougher, campfire, Western approach; and Staney made it swing with a great fiddle behind, and that classic hiccup to his yodel. It's apple, cherry and pecan pie - take your pick - as far as I can tell, there's no "best" herre.

[@The_13th_Hussar]

I quite enjoy Johnny Western's rendition.

[@anderander5662]

I notice the younger folks like rougher gravelly sounding music without too much emphasis on following the melody. Jack Daniels and Marlboro Reds... There are much better singers than Colter Wall but he's in vogue now.

[@eianmerino190]

Throw another in for you to listen to…. Wylie Gustafson

[@Svaber555]

Love just this song:)))

[@thedudeabides503]

Wow. Very different than colters version. Im glad he was able to interpret it in his own way

Hanks wins the trophy I'm subjective

[@NobodyinAmerica-z4r]

Perfection. A new york arts group [yeah, i know] called 'Javelin' also did a more hip hop version thats very chill. I love how songs travel, and everyone puts thier own spin on it.

[@Str3tch_3006]

If y’all like songs like this. Go and look up Colter Wall. Promise you won’t be disappointed

[@darrenwallace6161]

Haha. Colter ain’t no Hank Jr .

[@andyrew03]

What the guy above me said, I know how cowpoke should sound. And colter wall didn't do well, no offense. If anything, checkout Dave Stamey, you won't be disappointed.

I'm lonesome, but happy, rich, but I'm broke And the good Lord knows the reason I'm just a cowpoke From Cheyenne to Douglas, all the ranges I know 'Cause I drift with the wind, no one cares where I go I ain't got a dime in these old worn out jeans So I'll stop eatin' steak and go back to beans I'll pick up a ten spot in Prescott I know Well, I'm ridin' the broncs in the big rodeo Some evening in springtime a filly I'll find And I might spend all the summer with her on my mind But I'll never be branded and never be broke I'm a carefree, range ridin', driftin' cowpoke

[@Trakehner20]

Wait! This does NOT sounds like Junior, this has GOT to be Hank SR.!

[@mattreames7005]

Nope, it's Hank Jr. in the 60's. Quite amazing how different he sounds.

[@Trakehner20]

@@mattreames7005 Yup thanks for telling me. He really did sound different.

[@tonyhemingway7980]

In the movie, Your Cheating Heart, about Hank Sr. Jr. did all the singing.

[@TreeSawyer]

I’ve heard him sing about how his mama wanted him to fill his daddy’s shoes. So I’m sure this is him trying to sound like his dad.

[@pennagainagain7491]

Not only does it NOT sound like Junior, it sounds like Jimmie Rogers ... and he died in 1932!
