Merle Haggard me and crippled soldiers

[@truecountry5374]

One of the greatest songs ever sang by one of the greatest men

[@karenenderle532]

Damn, this song is more than relevant now....no one listed to him 30 years ago,,,,hoping we aren't where he sang about back then....but, it's hard to hear this song and feel it could be sung right now....God Bless the USA and ol' Merle and the crippled soldiers!

Ain't that the truth!!!

🇺🇲 Johnny Cash said it best. If you burn my flag I'll shoot you. But I'll shoot you with the love of a good American.

I buried my dad a little over a year ago. He one of the last american country boys!!! He loved merle haggard!!! I missed my dad everyday. God bless the U.S.A

I have had Hag sing this as I set their tears streaming down my face. He said that's why it isn't in my shows much Kelly. Are you alright. I said yes sir.

[@onefeather2]

Awesome song. We as a nation need to remember.

[@markoehler2752]

Unfortunately this is even more relevant today than it was then- fantastic song, Merle will always be at the top of my list. The best part to me in this live recording, is you can not only hear the anger in his voice, but you can SEE it in his face. Like he’s double dog daring somebody to set fire to Old Glory. Do it, see what happens! 🇺🇸

Brought tears to my eyes thinking of all those who gave everything to defend freedom and how our country is currently going to hell and not enough people seem to give a damn. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

The more I listen this great song I reckon Merle was in a mood as he was curt to Ralph Emery as I know they were friends. RIP MERLE AND BONNIE ❤❤

[@patrickbrady447]

I noticed that too, either that or he was getting in carichter to sing this song that was so close to his hearth.

The Hag knows how to stir your emotions in a song

[@graememurray5511]

We only have our freedom because of the fallen hero's, who've fell in glory in every war. Salute to all the fallen, lest we forget!!

[@parkerjohnson9814]

What a great song. I was very fortunate to have had a chance to meet him in person late one night in Bakersfield ca. At zingos.

[@erinfraser7949]

Merle's birthday should be a national holiday

this country is nit what it used to be where is the patriotism?

[@mollers92]

You say that like Merle Haggard wasn't an Obama supporter

[@karenenderle532]

@@mollers92 doesn't matter who he supported or who he voted for, what matters is he cares about his country and today, most people don't really give a cr@p,,,all they care about is getting handouts and trying to erase our history!

Right here boss

@@karenenderle532 How did you do that without swearing once?

[@pointingdog7235]

@@mollers92 I'll tell you this much there's one thing I can say about it but Merle loved the United States and the freedoms we have. If you don't want to believe it don't but that's the truth.
