I Fought A Child (Live at Frontera, 1969) [obscure classic country vinyl]

- Recorded live at Frontera women's prison in 1969 as part of Tuppard’s court-mandated community service requirements, this rare ai vinyl restoration is the only legally available version of I Fought A Child. The family of the unnamed child successfully sued to keep the studio version - which directly named the child - out of record stores citing privacy concerns. “I got that f**ker in the restaurant, but he got me in court,” Tuppard said after the 1968 ruling. Tuppard would be charged with multiple misdemeanors by the state after the incident - most of which were reduced or thrown out due to lack of witnesses willing to testify in favor of the child.

“I’ll fucking do it again”
That really got me.
😂😂😂😂
😂 I could hear this in goofy 😂
Do not touch the trim!
gold til the last seconds
My dad was big into old classic country, and he had a pretty ribald sense of humor. If he was still with us I think he would have loved this. Miss ya Old Man.
Sorry for your loss man but you know this is made by ai as a joke right
@@PabloYeezus
Of course, doesn't make it any less funny.
My dad and I are both musicians from Memphis and I recently got him hooked on making Motown AI after he saw my channel. 😂
god i think about this with all these vintage AI songs coming out, dad woulda loved these
@PabloYeezus
God these comments are so annoying, there’s a few on every single AI-generated song.
“You know this is AI right?!?!”
Yes bro, we all know…. You aren’t the smartest dude in the world or anything. Literally everyone knows all these songs are AI-generated….
And I knew from that restaurant
My ass would be exiled
And I fought a child
(he fought a child)
Just right.
I’m waiting for the future when everyone forgets this is AI and people one day are gonna look back on this as if it really was a vinyl from 1969
My mom has the vinyl so.....
@@DM-qm5sc And my great grandfather was a german electrician! Guess we all got bullshit family stories, huh? :D
@@notimportant2605yeah. Everyone knows electric don’t real XD
I mean, we had "A Boy Named Sue" irl lol
This isn’t AI 😂😅
Someone posted this was fake! I'll have you know that i saw this man live at the West Texas Fair and Rodeo in Abilene, TX in 1977, right after Johnny got out of prison and went on tour at all the major fairs and festivals! I was just a kid then, and I dreamed of fighting him. It would have been an honor!
That was a helluva show. I was there too
@@WeiWuWei87 do you remember how so many grown men were challenging kids to a fight? It was crazy! I ran away to find my Dad.... then he wanted to fight me too!
@@daves2058 It was how I got my start in cage fighting at 10 years old. I didn't make it far as I was severely crippled in my first sparring match. Stick to your dreams kids. 😁
@@andrewcarlson7252 awesome!
The line "My wife was pretty silent" kills me everytime 😂
2024 : PLEASE DON'T HURT CHILDREN
1950 :
Imagine an inter-generational hatred so deep you see an old man on the street at 33 years old and know right then it's on SIGHT.
Oh I see what you did there
"I Fought a Child and the Child Won" was the also on this record.
Children were a lot tougher back then.
no not really its just the weakness of the current generation is less hidden, and is ussually broadcast on the little computer in our pockets
@@EdibleFuture you clearly don't know what kids went through back then lmao. you're as soft as they are otherwise you would have ignored this comment.
It was originally supposed to be recorded by Johnny Cash, but his record company thought it was too controversial, so he recorded "A Boy Named Sue" instead.....
Fun fact: my dad was the kid that inspired this song. They did fight. But were friends for 56 years. Johnny was a real sonovabitch and a true friend.
This is how a lot of friendships start with some dudes.

It's like a cleaner version of Wheeler Walker Jr.
thats cause its George Lucas
You mean Mason "Jar-Jar" Dixon?

Fun fact; I personally knew the 'preacher's daughter' Lee's talking about. Her name was Jolene Abel-Allen (although us locals just called her Jole for short) and before the incident, Jole wasn't that much of a churchgoer, but the song fails to mention that the knife narrowly missed her head and impaled into the wall behind her. She was mighty thankful to Lee for taking care of that devil spawn and would always mention him after the Sunday sermons when folks would gather in front of the local church. Jole would speak real highly of him and whenever old Lee came back to town she'd give him a basket of home-grown veggies from her backyard. Bless her pure heart.
This sounds like something Merle Haggard would write 🤣
It sounds like something Shel Silverstein would write and Merle Haggard would perform.
Modern audiences couldn’t handle JLT. Saw him live at Darlington Speedway in 1982
My old man took me to see him back in 77'...He spotted me about 2 minutes into his set and threw a beer bottle at me...fractured my eye socket.
We used to have this on 8track. Dad always had that tape in the truck
It was probably a subtle warning to you to not embarass him at Denny's unless you wanted to take a nap.
AI retro music is the gift that will keep on giving
Wish this song was on Bad Santa when Billy Bob started punching a kid.
My daddy was a child when this happened he was there, He still til this day says Tuppard was a Hero
69' was a hot summer and tensions were high given the Vietnam war. Many Americans could relate to this song and it soon hit #1. With the Apollo moon landing tensions simmered down but it's these timeless classics that remind us how turbulant of a time 1969 was.
That why got my pack of smoke and rode my Harley left that peckerwood ass of a town
My dad accidentally ate a big tube of Colgate toothpaste. In may 1969
It took him two days to excrete it. He wasn't anywhere near Vietnam, but in Hamburg, Germany. There may have been a Vietnamese restaurant nearby, but I'm not 100% sure.
@@UnbelievableEricthegiraffebrilliant mate 😂👍from 🇦🇺
Right after coming back home from Vietnam that was his hardest Fight ever.
Apparently Tarantino has bought the movie rights
That childs name was sue
and he had a pretty pink dress and sandals... uh oh.
This shit is my new favorite music genre 😂😂😂
Somebody's gotta do it.
Damn right.
Probably the best use for AI
This needs to become a bar band staple
This was covered by Jim Crochet in 1971 at the tri-annual Meals on Wheelies concert to benefit people who don't like to cook.
Ah, I saw that concert the other day. Jim sure knew how to sing.
Neat. I love crocheting!
Absolutely brilliant. In the first 30 seconds the lines, "Heard a mightly cry, from some evil little b**tard, with the devil in his eye." had me laughing out loud. As a big Johnny Cash fan, I feel that this captured the feel of the fight between a boy named Sue and his dad. Also, worth saying that Johnny Lee Tuppard was a man's man in a time when men didn't have to take s*it from anyone, and damn the consequences.
I was at this concert in 69, conjugal visit with my wife. Who was doing a stretch.
🤣
😂
Johnny was performing at a women's prison?! What a legend!
Finally found this masterpiece after years of searching, it was my grandfather's favourite!
I'll trip a fucking running kid in a restaurant.
"saw him covered head to toe in dressing, leaves, and slaw..."
the anthem for r/childfree
Being a father it really toutched me.
I'm a techer hahaha
I’m a leerner
The anthem of modern day public schools soon.
Just think if they made actual music videos for these songs lol
Soldier Boy at the end of Season 3 of the Boys when Ryan tried to stop him from killing Homelander.
Johnny Paycheck basement sessions...
This takes me back to Saturday afternoons truckin with my dad.
Alright, I guess there's Some good country music
After some research I found that apparently, during the 80's, the kid (Lee Telshet) went to one of JLT's concerts to meet him. The two locked eyes and Johnny knew exactly who he was before they had a good laugh
So glad they were willing to let bygones be bygones. Forgiveness is one of the foremost human virtues.
We had a bluegrass version of this song by Bud Bidet and the High Colonic Ramblers on a 8-track when I was a kid. Awesome memories!
What's a bluegrass version?
@@GazB85 Bluegrass is a style of country music from the eastern states like Kentucky.
@@postnobills4806 Thanks! 👍
I was wondering if anyone else was gonna bring up Bud Bidet, good times.
The lost album version was recorded in the Quonset hut at 804 16th Av with famous producer Billy Sherrill at the controls for Epic Records. Tuppard refused to use Nashville session musician and instead used his road band, much to the annoyance of Sherrill. David Alan Coe is also an uncredited co writer.
It was a really big kid, though.
Automatic country classic. I laughed till I was almost dizzy. Wow!
When papaw used to hit me he would let me play this old 45 so I wouldn't tell.
When is the vinyl coming out I need this for my car when I'm driving around like this is a really good song
🙂
I miss those old in-dash record players
I think we've all been in a restaurant with one of "those" kids....
Hot Damn!!! Johnny Lee is an 'Merican national treasure!!!🤠🇺🇸
I've never been much of a country fan, but I always liked this one.
This has to be Mr. Tuppard’s best song
Well we've all been there
I remember hearing this for the first time on Hee Haw
This was good wish I could get this on a real record.
I would buy this on a 45.
This is the best AI song I've found all day I'm in tears.
This is a banger, reminds me of the good ol' days🔥
We need bops like this on the radio!
This should be the 2024 children's day marching song.
Listening to the lyrics that wasn't a child, that was a thing like from the movie the omen 👿
Honestly this goes really hard for being AI.
This is the funniest thing ever and I’m so glad I now know it exists.
When Johnny Cash covered this, everyone loved it. Yet, they sound EXACTLY ALIKE
Can you do a music video featuring the fight scene between Chris Hemsworth and a bunch of kids from the movie Extraction?
This is needed like rain in a drought friend
It's always the reverb on 'porrrrk' at 2:00 that gets me lmao
Sir officer look at his eyes 👀 you’ll see it too and you’ll know why it happened like that 😂
I love this song so much
There are only two rules.
The killer is never really dead.
The toddler is never really asleep.
Can I get the radio edit?
Christ i haven't laughed like this for years
This rules.
I work in Juvenile Corrections😂
I accidentally slapped a 12 year old last night in the eye and gave him a shiner. It was an accident. The kid knew it was an accident. But looking for songs about hitting kids, in order to decompress…this showed up.
I’m not the least bit upset.
We need more Johnny Lee Tuppard!
This reminds me of my last time at a GOLDEN Corral
Brilliant!
I'm I the only who thinks the guy looks like Wendigoon.
Fallout 3 OST is kinda cool 😅
Jim Carrey me myself and Irene
I met Johnny in a bar in Bakersfield back in the day, Was kind of a dick, good guy.
Fucking gold! 😂
good grief
These comments are making me lose my mind
The kid even looks like a punk.
I always loved the live version better.
Who's listening to this in 2025?
I was. It's 2026 now, son.
@@PaulSmoker420 you two gonna confuse the future kids
I’ll just get my crystal ball 😂
@@CaptainCoons John Titor....is that you?
A long time ago in a galaxy far away, me and the homies vibed to this cut.
Fantastic Find!
Thats a banger
To my friend Greg Fisher where ever you are………I hope you remember ?………
This would have passed as country in the day.

#ReallyBringinCountryBack
Love it🍻
I need to volunteer my 30 years of experience to this! I'll work in the damn mail room, bois!
It may be a draw'.... but you'll destroy him next time. I BLEIEVE IN YOU JHONNY
Where can I find more songs involving whipping kids' asses? This is hilarious. I'm coming to this from My Daddy's Belt (1967). I need more!
Make it with ai
Like Kramer in karate class lol
AI actually just dropped a new Wheeler single
I get Alan Coe vibes😁
I think I heard this in 1985...

He looks like Wheeler Walker
