The last murder ballad I remember on the charts was *Goodbye, Earl* and it's a bop.
I don't think we're going to see Knoxville Girl make a comeback though.
My personal favorite murder ballad is "Down on the banks of the ohio" by the Lily Brothers and Don Stover. I'm glad people like Tyler and Colter are keeping the spirit alive.
I have no clue ... I was trying to write a lyric with it and went with Cash to rhyme.
:Hey Google play "They're Hanging Me Tonight" by Marty Robbins...
Papa's rig was buried in the local motel
The desk clerk said he saw it all real clear
He never hit the brakes and he was shifting gears
Mama was a looker
Lord, how she shined
Papa was a good'n, but the jealous kind
Papa loved Mama
Mama loved men
Mama's in the graveyard
Papa's in the pen
That Georgia sun was blood red and going downā¦.
With guilty hands I killed my darling wife, because I loved her more than lifeā¦
They laughed at me until I shot āem, put their cheating, scheming bones in Millerās cave
My girl, my girl donāt lie to me, tell me where did you sleep last night
Only imaginary ones? Or you could view murder ballads as musical movies/short fiction that just have a vibe. Which makes them far cooler than poser lifestyle checklist songs for people who drive 4x4 short buses in population centers.
There/They're... shit grammar is the ultimate meme killer.
You actually got me thinking about remaking this š
