Amber, don’t feel bad- I’m 56 and have heard this song no less than 100 times and tear up every time. A whole life story in less than 2 minutes. That’s good country!! Love y’all!!
This is one of my favorite older country songs. Two of my favorite things about this song are that no matter how many times I hear this song I have a mini movie playing in my mind and also I've yet to be able to hear it and not tear up.
Hey this came out this month 50 years ago. I was 13. You couldn't listen to a country radio station 15 minutes without hearing this song. Earned SONG OF THE YEAR Awards in 1974 from both The Academy of Country Music and the Country Music Association. Didn't make me tear up back then, but it sure did today! You'll love his more humorous song "Between Lust and Watching TV" and "The Lord Knows I'm Drinking" and also "It's Time to Pay the Fiddler" Y'all are AWESOME!!!
I was raised on good ole country music. I still cry every time I listen to this song. My daddy was a country bumpkin. He passed before my mom did which was actually a blessing because he couldn't have lived without his "little woman."
Back in the mid-70’s, there was a trend toward “death songs”, both in country and pop, but none of them ever touched me like “Country Bumpkin”. A simple, sad and beautiful song about the circle of life. I’m a 50-something year old guy now, and it still brings a tear to my eye every time I hear it. Thank you for reacting to this song. It will always hold a very special place in my heart. ❤️
So-called "Death Discs" had been top 40 fair since 1958's "Endless Sleep" by Jody Reynolds, then onto 1959's "Teen Angel" by Mark Dinning, 1960's "Tell Laura I Love Her" by Ray Peterson, 1961's "Ebony Eyes" by The Everly Brothers, 1962's "Patches" by Dickey Lee onto 1964's "Last Kiss" by J. Frank Wilson & The Caveliers(originally recorded by it's author Wayne Cochran in 1961), 1965's "Laurie(Strange Things Happen) by Dickey Lee among many other great "Death Discs".
@@dicedice-yc5vn also, don’t forget “El Paso” by Marty Robbins in 1959/60. There were quite a few others too. But the death theme became a bit less popular for a while, only to be revived in the early/mid 70’s, probably spurred largely by the success of “Seasons In The Sun”.
I love country old school storytelling guys, thank you for the reaction video and exposure! Some of my favorite memories of old school storytelling are from Tom T. Hall, ‘Who’s Gonna Feed Them Hogs’ and ‘Watermelon Wine’-he wasn’t nicknamed the storyteller for nothing!-and C.W. McCall’s ‘Classified’, about going out to buy a pickup truck (told in banjo picking breakneck speed, fasten your lol belt kids), Roger Miller’s ‘Dang Me’ and ‘my uncle used to love me but she died’, and the nearly forgotten Dick Feller (who wrote the songs ‘Some Days are Diamonds’ that John Denver made big and ‘Lord Mr. Ford’, a hit for Jerry Reed), ‘Uncle Hiram’s Homeade Beer’…keep on spinning the platters!
Another classic from the vaults that I haven't heard in years. Thank you so much, Jay and Amber, for reacting to the songs you do. They bring back lots of memories for me and it makes me smile watching you all listen to the songs and discovering all this awesome new music for yourselves. Thank you as well for being honest with what you think about the songs and how they make you feel. Amber, I'm right there with you, shedding a tear (or three) at the end of the song. Have a wonderful day, everyone!
Mom and Dad always had country on the radio or on tv on the weekends (later I discovered folk, rock etc.. thank goodness). Some older country songs I heard then as a kid still give me some good memories of hearing it.
Great country classic right there. Amber, you'd definitely appreciate Barbara Mandrell's "I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool" as well that features George Jones. Not to give away too much, but she throws in a lyric "They call us COUNTRY BUMPKINS for stickin' to our roots . . . " Definitely relatable
Yeah! Finally one I’ve been pushing, I and many others knew you guys would love this song. It’s very simple, wholesome and sweet. Another one you need to check out is … “Old Dogs, children and Watermellon Wine” by Tom T Hall
Great song, great reaction video. If you want to hear something a bit more comedic and light-hearted from Cal Smith, he does a song called "The Lord Knows I'm Drinking". Definitely worth a listen.
Another good one by Cal that's even funny is called "The Lord Knows I'm Drinkin'". At least I'm pretty sure that's the name of it. If it isn't I'm sure someone will correct me, lol.
@@Nite37 absolutely!!! Marty Robbins’ “ El Paso” is an absolute must! In my opinion, probably the greatest story song ever! The lyrics are a masterpiece!
you guys keep hitting my old collection of 45's. I haven't thought of this one in almost fifty years. A true old school country song that aims for your heart and tear ducts
Another more recent country song that will have Amber (and Jay) crying is Joey + Rory's "When I'm Gone". Joey + Rory was a married duo and she died of cancer not long after the song came out leaving Joey and their kids behind. The song pretty much is her telling him it will be hard that first night when she is gone but he must carry on because life goes on.
They recorded that song and music video a few years before they even found out that she had cancer. They had a daughter with downsyndrome roughly a couple of years after they recorded the song. Then soon later found out that she had cancer, and she past roughly 2 or so years after having their daughter.. So the song was somewhat prophetic. But I agree, not enough people have reacted to that song. But many mistakenly think they knew she had cancer when she recorded it. They didn't.. The woman playing the piano in the video wrote the song.
This song is so unique in that no matter how many times you hear it... no matter how well memorized the final stanza may be... as soon as he sings 'So long Country Bumpkin'... the eyes will leak... somehow Cal Smith's delivery translates the emotions of sweet and sad so well...
This one is probably my #2 favorite country songs of all time, behind Faded Love by Patsy Cline. I thought this day would never come! Thanks for the reaction and I'm glad you like it!
Patty Loveless, You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive, live version from Austin City Limits TV show 2001. You'll be touched and impressed with Patty and the band.
This is a great song and won the CMA song of the year award for Cal Smith back in the day. Another great love song you might enjoy is "Love, Me," by Colin Raye. Guaranteed to provide a smile and a tear.
Great song. Some more great story songs, Teddy Bear by Red Sovine, Big Bad John by Jimmy Dean ( you may have done that one), Sixteen Tons by Tennessee Ernie Ford, just to name a few!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I think if they ever do "Teddy Bear" red sovine they should do "Teddy bears last ride" ( the Diana Williams version) Fair warning you guys if you do either of those you're gonna need a tissue if you do them both you might need a mop bucket and squeegee.
✨😭I have not heard this in ages❗️ A few country~pop songs that come to mind now are; “Honey” by Bobby Goldsboro, “Snowbird” by Anne Murray, & a kind of unusual song sung by Cher from an album called “ I’d Rather Believe in You” is a song called “Spring”. Real tearjerker songs, so keep a box of Kleenex close by❗️✨💖✨
I just watched Amber's face as that sweet song came to its conclusion. Amber you are a sweetheart who's really good at this. Jay you got a really got a good one, and I'm so happy for the both of you. You two make us all smile 😊! Take good care of each other... I know you will.
This is a great song, rose quickly up the charts. I even bought the album. But there was one song on it that spoke to me!!! Cal’s song I FOUND SOMEONE OF MY OWN . I was 25, with a 3 year old and pregnant with my second boy when my husband told me he wanted a divorce. I cried a million tears listening to FOUND SOMEONE OF MY OWN. It still has the power to reach me and my sons are 53 and 57.
Three Chords and the truth. As a young man, I listened to this song a lot while hanging out in dives. Drank a lot of beer back then, this was always playing on the jukebox. Thanks for playing the classic country songs of my youth.
JUICE NEWTON - " HEART OF THE NIGHT " 1980s Country Rock classic, you guys gonna love this song too. This song Country Bumkin is fantastic 70s and 80s country has such a good feel rhythm.
Great song! He had such a great country voice. A few of his other songs to check out are The Lord Knows I'm Drinking, I've Found Someone of My Own, and Thanks A Lot.
That was George Jones and Tammy Wynette at the end of the video. They were on a syndicated TV show called "That Good Ole Nashville Music" which aired all through the 70"s.
This is real country music golden yesterdays of golden voices from the real roots of country music! Not today's the only way to listen and enjoy really golden country music is to play it on TH-cam for golden ageless country music ❤
Cal Smith is from my home town in Oklahoma. His nephew played drums for us and Cal even invited us to Nashville to hear some of our songs. We never went but it's still a good memory. RIP to both of them.
I was privileged to call Don Wayne (the writer of this song) a friend for the last few years of his life. This was his biggest hit in his career, but he had other notable songs, such as "Saginaw Michigan" (Lefty Frizzell) and "If Teardrops Were Silver" (Jean Shepard), and several others for Cal Smith, including “It's Time to Pay the Fiddler”, “She Talked A Lot About Texas”, and “Woman, Don’t Try To Sing My Song.”
Can't believe you two reviewed this one...this song has a special meaning for me as my dad was a country music singer and a part time radio DJ in vietnam...he played all the good stuff for us kids fo years. That was our entertainment was my daddy playing music on his ol' 33 albums (or reel to reel tapes) or singing for us. I remember hearing this as a child and it made me cry. This was one of his faves...me too
This song when I'm drinking makes me think about my mama. Anytime I play or mention this song around her her eyes light up.... definitely means a lot to me now that she's getting older
Love this song so I just became a grandma and I sang this to my grandson I call him my country bumpkin but I won’t be around to watch my country bumpkin grow so this song is for my country bumpkin this is a very special song thank you
PLEASE REACT TO THE SONG BLACK and WHITE from 1972 BY THE BAND THREE DOG NIGHT. You're gonna love the lyrics...not to mention the cowbell. IT WAS PART OF OUR HIPPIE MOVEMENT OF THE LATE 60's EARLY 70's TO TRY AND UNIFY EVERYONE
A song from my boyhood that I had forgotten. Thank You for the memories and the genuine reaction. If you enjoyed this song and would like to react to Cal Smith again, then please check out a song called: "Come see about me"! Encredible lyrics and a beautiful message that I think you and your "family" will enjoy!
The final verse always makes me think of my grandmother. She didn't say those words but so long country bumpkin would have been the exact kind of thing that she would have said to say goodbye.
I don’t know why but, watching your reaction to songs I grew up with just brings me to tears. 🤠
Amber, don’t feel bad- I’m 56 and have heard this song no less than 100 times and tear up every time. A whole life story in less than 2 minutes. That’s good country!! Love y’all!!
I too am 56, this was my dad's favorite sad song. And yes, I always tear up when I hear it.
Me, too. I am a 62 year old man and this song makes me cry every time. So sweet and so sad.
52 here and yes, so many times
Me too.
54 here and it still brings a tear to my eye, kind of like Blake Sheldon's "The Baby"
82 YEARS OLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! STILL LOVE "COUNTRY MUSIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am getting up there myself. God bless you and I wish you another 82 years.
Great song from a great singer
Awww, Amber’s the sweetest ! 🥹
Another good song by Cal Smith is "The Lord Knows I'm Drinking."
Sorry miss spelled it is the lord knows I’m Drinking and yes that is a really good song
Yes!! Love that song!!
Great Song!!
check out "the lord knows i'm drinking"....one of the best country songs ever!! cal had a voice made for country music
Cal Smith had such a great voice, and was a good story teller.
This is one of the best old school country songs.

Oh my gosh so authentic and so full of love I'd never heard this one before thank you.

Cal Smith's voice was smooth as butter.
One of the first country music songs I remember hearing. Still makes me tear up.
I remember this song on the radio, again, again and again.
Have not heard this song in years my dad loved country music he was the one got me listening too it
Ok...Tanya Tucker singing WHATS YOUR MAMAS NAME? Surprise ending.
Another one of my favorites. Isn't female Friday coming up again in a few days?
Blood Red and Goin' Down is my favorite.
Yeah! And “Oh, What It Did To Me”.
I've said before you can't go wrong with classic country, specifically 70s country. My favorite decade for country and the greatest era IMO.
YOU GOT THAT XTRARA RIGHT ON
Yeah! Finally one I’ve been pushing, I and many others knew you guys would love this song. It’s very simple, wholesome and sweet. Another one you need to check out is …

Next country reaction:
Marty Robbins "El Paso"
You need to do the trilogy though. There are three songs in this set. You will not be disappointed.
For the record, they are:
El Paso
Faleena
El Paso City
Hard core rocker here,, Marty Robbins is GOAT!
Yes, absolutely.
@@Nite37 absolutely!!! Marty Robbins’ “ El Paso” is an absolute must! In my opinion, probably the greatest story song ever! The lyrics are a masterpiece!
I probably could have contained my tears if not for watching Amber...😢
Right??!
Me too.
Another great story song!
Love this song! You should also hear Where Have You Been? - Kathy Mattea and When I Get Where I'm Going- Brad Paisley and Dolly Parton
you guys keep hitting my old collection of 45's. I haven't thought of this one in almost fifty years. A true old school country song that aims for your heart and tear ducts

Their song The Preacher And the Stranger is also an amazing song.
They recorded that song and music video a few years before they even found out that she had cancer.

Sixteen Tons by Ford was actually a cover. The original was an early hit by Merle Travis.
I think if they ever do "Teddy Bear" red sovine they should do "Teddy bears last ride" ( the Diana Williams version)
Fair warning you guys if you do either of those you're gonna need a tissue if you do them both you might need a mop bucket and squeegee.
