Imagine sitting around a crackling campfire under a starlit sky, the kind of night that feels like it’s straight out of a classic country song. That’s the essence of “Haggard, Hank & Her”—a track that doesn’t just play; it transports you. This song is a heartfelt ode to the roots of country music, invoking the spirits of legends like Merle Haggard and Hank Williams. It’s as much a tribute to these icons as it is a narrative about the impact they’ve had on generations of listeners.
“Haggard, Hank & Her” spins a tale of love, loss, and the solace found in music. The lyrics are a journey through time, reminiscent of dusty roads and the comfort of old, crackling vinyl. It’s the kind of song that gets under your skin, not just because it’s relatable, but because it captures a raw, emotional truth. Each chord and lyric seems to echo the trials and tribulations of love, much like the songs of Haggard and Williams once did.
But beyond the melodies and harmonies, there’s a deeper connection here. The song speaks to anyone who’s ever found healing in music, to those who’ve turned up the radio to drown out heartache, or sat back to let a soulful tune wash over them during tough times. “Haggard, Hank & Her” is more than just music; it’s a companion through life’s highs and lows.
This song resonates because it’s authentic. It doesn’t just mimic the style of its legendary namesakes; it embodies the spirit of country music—a genre woven from stories of real life. And in this track, the past and present meld beautifully, creating a new classic that’s both nostalgic and fresh.

Lyrics
Whiskey knows my weakness
Bartender knows my pain
My heart knows I’m hurtin’
And the barstool knows my name
This glass knows I’m empty
The devil knows my game
The good Lord knows I’m lonely
And the jukebox knows no shame
Nobody makes me cry, nobody gets me high
Nobody says goodbye or takes me back in time
To the place that we once were
Nobody thrills me, nobody chills me
Nobody kills me
Like Haggard, Hank and her
Memory and drinks don’t mix too well
It’s misery and gin
Like a whippoorwill, I’m too blue to fly
What I wouldn’t give, my baby would just walk in
‘Cause I’m lonesome, I could cry
Nobody makes me cry, nobody gets me high
Nobody says goodbye or takes me back in time
To the place that we once were
Nobody thrills me, nobody chills me
Nobody kills me
Like Haggard, Hank and her
Oh, nobody kills me
Like Haggard, Hank and her
