So I just heard this violent old country song by Jimmie Rodgers and it really made an impression on me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=078MsA9m2t0
Can we get a thread going with other old songs about drinking, fighting, and killing or with newer songs with a similar feel?

Old blues singers are the hardest motherfuckers to make music in America. Their grandparents were slaves and their parents were called niggers by half the country. Imagine being raised with that history and how dark it can make you sound.

Yessss. That's what I want to hear. I have to go to bed, but I'll leave you with some Mississippi John Hurt. Hopefully there'll be some more great stuff here in the morning:

Glad you approve. They're the best Irish band, imo. But the Clancy Brothers are good too. You could pretty much fill the thread up with songs from this album.
