...Oh you knew a country boy can survive
**This is a pretty easy song to pick out, but I thought I noticed it
wasn't up on the site.
I really like this one, these boys from KY are keepin country soundin
like country. They keep those fiddles and slide guitar wailin! Check
out the rest of their Tatoos and Scars album, its just as good.
