Songs That Mention Hats

[Rmccamey]

The greatest song ever written IMHO. The best version is played on a banjo!

I dip my cup of soup back from a gurglin'
Cracklin' caldron in some train yard
My beard a rustling, cold towel, and
A dirty hat pulled low across my face
Through cupped hands 'round the tin can
I pretend to hold you to my breast and find
That you're waiting from the backroads
By the rivers of my memories
Ever smilin' ever gentle on my mind

This song was posted before by @BobHufford… but I came across this 45 that was up for sale and thought it was a nice fit here.

I used to have that 45.

I was a 10 year old living in Columbus GA near Ft. Benning when they were filming that movie in 1968. I remember seeing some of the locations with my dad while driving around town.

I'd have to be crazy to stop all my singing
And never play music again
You'd call me a fool if I grabbed up my top hat
And ran out to flag down the wind

Gotta love a good "talkin" Western song.

"East Nashville kid in a cowboy hat,
Couldn't tell a shoe lace from a lariat,
And the furthest west he'd ever been is Ohio."
.

"Just as soon as I'm able to find my hat
I believe I'll leave and head on back
Home where the tallest buildings are all grain elevators"
.

"So if you're in Nashville trying to look cool
But ya can't tell a pretty palomino from a mule
Take my advice and leave the buckaroo hat on the shelf"

Good Texan -- Jimmie & Stevie Ray Vaughan

Massive wardrobe of cowboy clothes
Top of my head to the tip of my toes
Ah, you look so good in my hat with fringe on it
So put on my boots, hmm doggone it

 

[Bamaboots]

And I'm too sexy for my hat
Too sexy for my hat
What ya think about that?

 

[Hurricane Jack]

And I'm too sexy for my hat
Too sexy for my hat
What ya think about that?

Just pretend it's dingleberrys then. They help keep the horseflies away from your face. You don't see no horseflies in this pic, do you?

No horseflies here either, but it might be due to the smoke.

Bobby Aro: There's a kapakka in the kaupunki. Aro was a finnish-american singer who sang in very fluent finglish. Line from the song: "I hang my hattu (=hat) on the naula (=nail) by the door..."
