Huge fan of this track and all Old Crow's stuff!! Sorry to plug but I'm a band which has just set up a youtube account and are trying to get our stuff heard - we're inspired by contemporary, upbeat music like this and would really appreciate anyone taking a moment to have a listen! We're looking to play a few of the UK festivals this summer and planning to get some more live tracks up on our page very soon! Thank you! Rescue - link below -

This is the toixic result of mixing hipster and redneck culture. A true american tragedy that can only happen in the age of Obama

@bayknight20 This song was sketched by Bob Dylan in 1973 (during which time Nixon was president) and was released by Old Crow Medicine Show in 2004 (during which time G.W. Bush was president). If you're going to blame anyone for this fantastic song, trying blaming (presumably) your own moronic presidents. Or just don't try to bring your illogical political ideas into a band's youtube comments. Either one is fine. Idiot.

@MARIOFREAK821 People like you piss me off, telephone tuff guys, you can talk shit, but in real life you wouldn't say shit.

You don't know me!

A good friend of mine taught me how to play guitar and this was the first song I learned from him. He tragically fell to his death two weeks ago and this song will forever hold a special place in my heart, rip Schmitty.
