You may not have a son to teach your values, but you have the ability to teach your daughters how a man with your values behaves, both in life and toward women, and teach them that they should accept nothing less. That’s just as important. ❤❤
You can teach them to protect themselves and each other too -- everything from martial arts to "Never leave a woman behind" in some party situations.
Beautifully said !
The proudest moment in my life was when my wife told me my step-daughter told her I am the standard that she judges potential boyfriends!
I was raised by my Father who didn't have a clue what to do with a daughter, so he taught me everything he would teach a son. Part of that was to always stand up for myself. Violence is never right, but sometimes there are no options left. If something has to be done, don't b1tch and moan about it, just get your head down and get it done.
Most importantly he taught me to be strong and respect myself.
So I agree, there are a lot of value in what a good Father can teach, and show by example to their daughters.
He also taught me DIY, brick work and basic plumbing, but that's a different story.
❤Amen❤
There were movies made for the Gambler and Coward of the county - staring Kenny himself. Worth seeing.
Great movies too!
They have a combo pack that has all the Gambler movies w/Coward of the County included. Believe I snapped that up, in a hurry 😂
They were good movies. I kinda thought they could have made a movie from Kenny's song "Reuben James," too. I loved that song.
@@rebeccacurtis6680 Reuban James was such a great song, yes could have done a movie to that as well.
@@tanyaglover2217 Really I have to look for it, that would be excellent to have.
Key words, “you don’t have to fight TO BE a man. BUT, sometimes you GOTTA fight WHEN you’re a MAN.
Very important message indeed.
That's the important lesson that needs to be taught this clearly in all generations.
I went to prison and met a guy who was in for LIFE for Attempted Murder of his neighbor for m0lesting his daughter. His daughter was 10. When she turned 16 she asked her dad why he was in jail. He said I failed to protect you. She then asked him, "Who's protecting me now?" This changed his life! He stopped doing drugs, drinking and being a part of a gang! He is home now!
Another vote for "Ruby, Don't take Your Love To Town" as your next Kenny Rogers reaction.
Absolutely! Early Kenny, along with Reuben James.
I vote for RUBY also. Great Kenny song
Also, indirectly, it's a pretty powerful antiwar song, too. Lots going on in that song! Brilliant writing!
Absolutely love that song!
Kenny Rogers and the First Edition….good stuff.
Not gonna lie about it, nor sugar coat it: This was my childhood. The song, I mean. I was bullied and beaten on a near-daily basis as a child. Finally, it got to the point in my mid-teens.... when I just "exploded" and beat a bully stupid.
Remember something: Just because someone doesn't WANT to fight, doesn't mean they CAN'T or WON'T. If you push someone far enough that they "Snap", you're in for a real bad time.
Thats why my dad always said "its the quiet ones you should scared of" because they dont have to show they can handle themselves
truth
Yup...I "snapped" once and I mean it was blind range where it took 2 people to get my hands off of the person! Of course that was 40 yrs ago...I have calmed down but the passion and emotion is still in me if I see an injustice being done to a child or animal, I have people I call...
@@MrBoyneboy There's a saying that goes something like, "Beware the rage of a quiet man." It's the men who don't do anything and take the abuse over time where the anger builds until it just explodes. A good friend of mine was like that until he finally beat a school bully unconscious and just walked away. That's not in his character at all, but everyone has their breaking point. I've always said that a bully only understands his own language, and that's a punch in the mouth. We don't do bullies any favors by taking their abuse. They need taught life lessons, too.
❤
The most dangerous man in the room is often the least expected one. Speak softly but carry a big stick.
Exactly. The most terrifying people I’ve known are those who are meek and quiet….until pushed past their line. Then demons run for cover.
@jimreilly917 There's a reason they warn everyone not to piss off the quiet ones. Or my favorite version, "the most dangerous man is a man pushed too far, for at that point you've just killed what that man was and now he shall unleash a righteous fury upon you."
@@CommanderRedEXE "There are 3 things that all wise men fear. The sea at storm, a night with no moon. And the anger of a gentle man." -- Patrick Rothfuss
I was a Law Enforcement Officer for many years. In an interview, they asked me what I knew about Human Behavior. I told them that any person is capable of anything depending on the circumstances. I told them overall I am a very calm person, but if someone ever hurt my child, that person was a walking dead man when I got to him. Cheers to you for knowing you have to protect and defend your family.
Like that dude whose son was molested by a dude in Louisiana, he found out they were bringing him through the laval airport, he blasted him in front of the cops
I always get a little choked up when he says “ Tommy stopped and locked the door “
It’s a great song and it gets intense reactions from men hearing it for the first time as it should.
Brother, you can teach your daughters what a man should be.
Teach them &......SHOW THEM!
This so much. Don't think that the things you know and learned only apply to boys. Your daughters can and should learn these too!
And teach your sons to respect women and daughters to DEFEND THEMSELVES. Not stay and fight but disable and get away to get help. I have 2 daughters. My wife is a karate brown belt.
I had to watch this reaction again, this is probably the truest reaction for this song I've seen so far! 40!
💯
I grew up on this song. And as a happily married father I always tear up. Exactly for the reasons he covers in this reaction. I hope nothing like that ever happens to my family and I believe in the lord. But I don’t think I could forgive without retribution.
@@dajuicebar2435 Amen brother!
Best line of the song, "But you could've heard a pin drop, when Tommy stopped and locked the door."
Chills every time
@@ginger7044Me too
Teach your daughter’s to defend themselves, and always back them up. Girls get bullied by other girls and they can be viscous. You have to have principles and the one my dad taught me was that anyone who would stand by and watch another person being violated was the worse kind of coward. I watched him on several occasions come to the aid of a person who was being either verbally or physically tortured . He wasn’t extreme in his actions but he stopped the situations. He didn’t do it for fame or show, he did it as a human being and quietly walked away. He once put his boot in the backside of a man who was kicking and stomping on a dog who just wandered into his yard. Those were the times I was most proud to be his daughter. RIP Daddy.
Damn straight! I've almost got hit in the face for standing up for any abuse I've witnessed on animals ...twice involving small children...
Always stand up to children or animal abusers...I do and almost got punched in the face a few times! You see something DO SOMETHING!
❤❤
May the Lord God Bless You ALL!!
My compliments for having a *real man* for a Father. RIP to both our Fathers. :)
Another great Kenny Rogers story-in-a-song is Ruby.
Also Rueben James.
Lol, I was just singing "Ruby" thinking Blac Pegasus should definitely play that tune.
@@bkm2797 Ruby and Lucille...2 of my favorite songs.
MsCNail
Great minds think alike, lol!
@@bkm2797 Yes they do! lol
A friend of mine met Kenny on an elevator in Vegas many years ago. Struck up a conversation with him. Kenny invited him for drinks in the casino lounge later that evening. My friend said that he was a genuinely kind man. He also told my friend that being a star was not an easy life.
My pap worked the gate where he played golf in Kennesaw, Georgia. He said he was the nicest man he had ever met.
Totally believe that. My brother met him briefly in Vegas once. He says a lot of the same things.
Coward of the County was made into a movie. The Gambler was made into two movies. All three movies were produced by Kenny Rogers.
My father always told me You have to know what your willing to live for, go to jail for and die for.
He was right from Carol in the UK
Daughters can learn immeasurable lessons from their loving, upstanding fathers. Immeasurable.
I've heard this song a hundred times, but I still get tears in my eyes every time I hear it.
I get goosebumps when the song talks about how he found Becky crying. Every time.
I always cry.
Another great story song is "Ruby, Don't Take Your Love to Town".
70s KENNY ROGERS MY faverite 70s ALL THE WAY and the Gambler
You interpreted the song exactly as Kenny wanted you to, and that's the reason Kenny Rogers is so beloved by so many people - his true gift as a storyteller. The parts in this song that really resonate with me, is when he goes down an octave during the serious parts in the track "and there was 3 of them" and "you could hear a pin drop when Tommy turned and locked the door". This is the brilliance in the song and how he sings it, he takes the emotion and drags it out of you as a listener. I actually welled up a bit watching your reaction to what happened to Becky and talking about relating that fear for you and protecting your family. This is what great music does, it makes you feel something. You really should review "Lady" by Kenny as well, it would be a beautiful tribute to your wife. You will know what I mean once you've heard it...
Nobody can write a song that paints a picture the way Kenny Rogers could. Well, maybe Gordon Lightfoot, but there aren't many who have the ability to make lyrics so vivid.
💯 right & I watered up too
I'm a 70-yr-Old-Folkie, and Son, you have a good head on your shoulders; be sure to thank your parents. You will do fine, your wife will do fine, and your children will love you. You are one of the Lucky ones. Thanks for your music.
Two words - Gary Plauche. A dad who did what needed to be done.
Your mission is so much bigger than teaching a son. Your mission is to teach your daughters what to look for in a man, and know what treatment they not only should expect, but deserve. That is a holy mission, Darlin', execute it well....
At 56 years old, I have been listening this song since I was a kid, and it still gives me goosebumps every time. Great choice.
Your girls will see how a man should act just by the way you act. You are not the only one who thinks the way you do, carry every day, head on a swivel and protect the ones you love.
Kenny Rogers is an icon. This song is deep. There are some things you cannot turn your cheek to. I don't think God would hold you responsible in this instance. This song makes me cry every time I hear it. Love your reaction!
By showing your daughters what a good and honorable man is, you have equipped them to pick good and honorable men in their own lives. Daughters NEED their daddies to help them grow up and make the right choices. Keep up the good work.
Ruby and Lucille are also great story songs by Kenny Rogers.
As a black belt myself, who trains my two daughters, I would say, train them girls! We train kids and my husband regularly says, "We teach girls how to defend themselves and we teach boys how to control themselves. Don't discount how much your daughters need the training you can give them. Be blessed!
It doesn't mean your weak to turn the other cheek.. but when your woman has been raped by 3 men.. well in this song. he stood up.. which I would expect every man to stand up . This is a powerful song.. Country songs tell life stories. My oldest son at barely 19.. went to a party and got drunk.. maybe did some drugs.. and a man came on to him.. My son said not into it.. the other man wouldn't leave him alone.. my son.. unfortunately, under the influence, beat the heck out of this man.. put him in the hospital.. My 19 yr old son was looking at life in prison for a hate crime in Florida.. I'm just so blessed.. the man lived. and my son spent 11 months in Jail.. not prison.. and we were able to get him out.. He's now 36.. never been in any kind of trouble since.. He's clean, sober, married for 10 yrs.. I'm not proud of what he did that night.. but I'm very proud of the man he's become.
As an only child girl, whose father also would have loved to have had a son, know that you can also pass those lessons of strength on to your daughters. I was blessed to have a dad who thanked God every day that he had me in his life… and let me know it. Do that for your daughters and your wife, and I am sure that God will bless you with graces to not regret the lack of a son.🥰
As the dad of an only child daughter, I thank you for this. She is grown now, and I have never regretted our family.
@@Cap10VDO she was blessed to have you for her father.
My father has two daughters, just like you. He’s the best father a girl could ever ask for and I think your daughters are equally blessed. You can’t teach them to be a man, like you can a son, but you can teach them what a real man is, and what to look for in a husband and father.
@BlackPegasus great reaction fren. The line “they took turns at Becky” is the line that tells you what they did to her. Thanks for the reaction. Your wife and girls are blessed to have a good man in you.
Daddy was in Martial Arts too…he spoke about self control in his Art…(he was also an Artist as well) five girls and two boys…he made sure all of us learnt both arts….now my nieces and nephews are learning from ago 5 and up…He always used to tell us when I am gone always remember “What is worth doing is worth doing well”😢Miss you Daddy😢
You are right Pegasus, Tommy locked the door to make sure none of the three could get away, while he dealt with them.
U may not have a son, but you will show your daughters the kind of man they need to be with! Kudos to u for being a stand up man!
You can teach them how they deserve to be treated with respect by how you treat them, how you treat their mother, how you treat your mother and how you treat and talk about women in general.
I love Kenny. Yes, you are correct to protect your wife and girls. Remember, someday, you may have grandchildren, and you can pass down your wisdom to them, too.
It actually is a movie. Kenny was a successful actor as well.
This idiom originated in England as a nickname for people from the Lincolnshire Fens, a marshy area containing eels. It is said that both the eels and the people have yellow bellies. The term has come to mean cowardly. Thank you wike :)
It goes back further. Cowardice was often associated with jaundice which can cause a yellow hue to the skin and swelling of the liver. This gave rise to two terms for cowardliness- yellow belly and lily(white) livered. People thought that the liver was the 'home' of courage. Thank you Oxford Dictionary.
The only thing you can't teach a daughter that you can a son is how write their name in the snow. The same qualities that make a good man also make a good woman. Make sure they know their worth by being secure in your love but don't underestimate their abilities and strength.
Starting around age twelve, every year have a talk with your daughters about good and bad qualities (in men). Each year have them right down what they’re looking for and not looking for in a man. Refreshing that line of thought regularly will keep them focused in the right direction and decrease the likelihood that they will get involved with the wrong type of person. Also tell them if they want to get a good man, they need to be the kind of woman a good man will want.
The fathers role in a daughter life is super important. Her first relationship with a man is you- teach 😅them how valuable they are, self respect. A daughters relationship with her father will teach her how valuable she is . This will eventually help her to choose her/ their future husband . You will be greatly rewarded.
I am mom of 3 daughters. I felt their fathers (2) needed to be their male guide. I am a proud grandma of soon to be 3 grandchildren.
I am so proud of my sons in law. They honor my daughters, are great fathers, and include me and our daughters father in all family gatherings. Your rewards are waiting for you as you and your wife go through your life journey with your daughters. God Bless.
You can teach your girls about men, that's important info. As to turning the other cheek, I find it takes enormous strength.
Thank you for saying how you would defend your family to the death. I agree. So many country songs are like that. Defend your family AND your country. We are all Americans. We defend our rights!!
I am glad you caught that, "if you can".
Sometimes, thankfully rarely, you have no choice
just because you have girls doesn't mean you do nothing but coddle and shield.. i'm a country girl and taught my daughter to be even tougher than me.. give them shiny as hell backbones and always be honest no matter what with them and watch them soar..
I remember when this came out in 1979....yes, once your children are older, please share this with them ❤
I cry every time I hear this song. It evokes so much emotion. It makes me wonder - why?
I shared your reaction to this song with my mother-in-law, and her comment was that she loved your brutal honesty and appreciation of the song. And, now she's subscribed to your channel too. ;-)
For some interesting country or southern rock story telling songs maybe (if they haven’t been done yet)…
Uneasy Rider or Still In Saigon by Charlie Daniels
Watermelon Wine or A Week In A Country Jail by Tom T. Hall
remember all those lessons for a son - your daughters will one day give you beautiful grandchildren that you can pass those lessons to.
Teach some of those lessons to your girls so they look for those traits in their husbands. Also, even as a father-in-law, you may have to share that wisdom with your son-in-law.
Dig back into the 60s and listen to Kenny Rogers & The First Edition singing I Just Dropped In(To see what condition my condition is in)
Great song!
I forgot how much this hits my emotions. Said by a retired Marine. Turn the check until it can't be turned any more.
Raise the daughters right. Don't let them be victims. Show them what a man is.
A movie was made of this song back in the 1980's. Kenny Rogers was in it.
Hey Pegusus! Here is another Kenny Rogers song that I think you can relate to. Please react to "She Believes in Me."
Kenny Rogers great singer and even more of a great actor. The film to this song of the same name just shows how good kenny is
Kenney is the best! More people these days should listen to Kenny's life lessons. I think America could use a little backbone these days.
Several of Kenny’s songs were made into movies! He was so good at writing.
Reactor's reaction to the intendent with his girl gets me every time. Great song amazing artist RIP Kenny
I'm so glad you listened to this song!!!! Yes, he beat the tar out of those 3 men. He was no longer the coward of that county. 👍🏼
Shows you are a great man to even care about what happens to your wife and daughters!
This song really hit home for me... because my Daddy was always in my life and never backed down when it came to protecting me or my mother and my daughters father walked out on her and me so I have to be the father and the mother for my daughter !! And I will hurt anyone when it comes to my daughter!! ❤
I have complained to 3 people this morning because I've had this song stuck in my head all morning!
We had to wait so long, but it was worth it.
Ever since I was a little kid, this song would bring tears to my eyes
I was never into country music, but I liked Kenny Rogers. I was a teen in the 1980’s. Great artist.
That's always why I comment to you when you become emotional, My Daddy told me when I was young that only real Men cry. My Daddy was a big tough man,he was a welder and a pipefitter. He would always walk away if he could. One time though, we were swimming at a local rock quarry. I was 12 and had 4 girlfriends the same age and my Mom and Daddy were there. A group of probably 12 older teenaged boys who were cussing like sailors, throwing sand, and just generally ruining our day were there .Daddy said Young Men? Please see that my Wife, my daughter and her young lady friends are within hearing distance of your foul mouths, and I would appreciate it if you would stop or move to the other side of the beach. Thank you. This kid probably 17 years old,and was definitely a quarterback or a wrestler and this was in 1978. This guy was solid muscle. My Daddy was in his 50s. This guy said EFF you old dude and laughed. I had never seen my Dad mad. The veins bulged in his neck and his forehead. My Daddy took two long strides, grabbed dude by his throat and held him up in the air. His " friends" ran. My Daddy said I'm going to put you down, you're going to apologize to my Wife, my Daughter and her friends, and you're going to MEAN it, and follow your intelligent friends, or I'll just hold you up until you lose consciousness and your "friends" can call an ambulance. He put the guy down, the guy burst into tears, apologized profusely,he said his Mother would kill him if she knew that he had even talked like that, especially in front of ladies. My Daddy said Good Man, stuck out his hand, they shook hands and the group moved to the other side of the quarry. I'll never forget that. What you just said about your Wife and your Daughters made me remember that. Thank you. You know if my Daddy had been alone, he wouldn't have said a word.
This damn song gets me emotional every time.
This is easily one of my favorite Kenny songs. I got goosebumps when he said “Sometimes You got to fight when you’re a man”. One of the best sentences I have ever heard. Thanks for this video. A couple other songs of Kenny that is worth the listen is “Lucille, Love Or Something like it, She Believes in Me”.
I'm 67 years old man also with no son and your reaction triggered something in me I've never teared up to this song before and I've heard it hundreds of times. Thanks for bringing that out (and I appreciate that) I'll now forever choke up inside and that's a good thing. Thanks again.
Thanks for sharing Garry, it touched me also, and I'm glad others felt the same as me.
I always bawled when I heard this song. This time was no exception.
In early 2000's I saw Kenny Roger's in a small concert (less than 2000 people). Best concert ever. I was sitting within 15 feet of him. Such a great performer.
I remember as a teenager I watched the made for TV movie of this song in prime time on antenna TV. It didn't even have parental ratings back then. I haven't looked for it since but I may now.
a good country song always tells a story.
One of my absolute favourite songs of Kenny Rogers, I love his voice and this song is so good, what a story it tells, I had the single way back in 1979 and played it so much! Some of the other favourites I really loved too, 'Ruby, Don't Take Your Love to Town', (1979) and 'Something's Burning' (1970) I had the singles of these two as well! Great reaction, BP, many thanks. 😊😊
Kenny Rogers and the First Edition.
@@tomjohnson2543 Gosh, I'd forgotten about that, of course there was the band too! These songs were played so much in the UK, we loved them and hearing them again, it just takes you back in time! 😊😊
Old country music singers and songwriters were always great storytellers.
Coward of the County was made into a movie in 1981.Kenny played Tommy's uncle.
Kenny Roger's made this song into a movie. It's a great movie, and goes into more detail...
i have listened to this song since i was little, i am 45 now and i always looked at it like gRape and in my head when e says "he watched the last one fall" i always imagined it was due to copper and lead because no man would abuse any woman in my life, daughter, wife... and only get an ass kicking
"I Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)"
I'm 53 and family listened to country music growing up I consider the Gambler and Coward of the County some of the best country music ever done. Such great songs that tell great stories.
Kenny was with a band called 'Kenny Rogers and the First Edition' before going solo and they had a song 'Reuben James'...that's a great song
You don’t have a son, but lots of kids need the skills you have! Mentoring one could totally change his life.
Based on what I've seen, most mothers have a very strong protective instinct and it doesn't go away when the children are adult men and women, either. And I don't know if it's universal (no one can know that), but most women would do everything they possibly could to protect their husband or wife as well. I don't think men and women are all that different when it comes to protecting their families.
I have been listening to this song since I was a kid and I’m 52 . I get emotional every time Kenny Rogers has beautiful songs I’m glad you’re listening to these songs.. Enjoy
You can teach your daughters strength; you can teach them by example what it means to be an honorable man so that they choose wisely; and, maybe someday, you will have a grandson to teach and guide in the most important life lessons.
Actually it became a movie based on the song.Tommy,Becky,the Gaitlun brother's, really a decent lifetime movie
In the 80s they turned this into a made for TV movie and Kenny Rogers played a preacher in it, they bass the TV movie off of the song.
Ps
Also the song The Gambler was turned into a made for TV movie starring Kenny Rogers + it was four other sequels to The Gambler series
I'm 51 and have been listening Kenny Rogers my entire life. He truly was a storyteller with his songs, and just had one of those really great voices. So glad you're checking out his music. Give Ruben James and Ruby Don't Take Your Love to Town. Keep up the great content.
Love Kenny Rogers thanks to my father...RIP Dad. I know what you mean about the family...I'm a single father..You mess with my daughter--If her Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu training doesn't stop you I guarantee my country ass whooping will. Another great song is Tim McGraw's " Don't take the girl".I can't watch the video without tearing up
I don't see why you can't teach your daughters the same things you'd teach a son. They need the same knowledge of responsibilities, strength, courage, leadership etc.
Back in 2011, my wife and I adopted our two grandchildren at the ages of 1 year old and 10 months old.
Now, she’s 16 and he’s 15.
🎉heoughout the years I would pray to God to help me to be the best father I could be. Now she’s graduating Highschool a year early and my grandson is making A’s and B’s in school.
Some time ago I didn’t know if I could do it and then realized they were gifts.
I lost my sister at the age of 8 and then my son(from a previous marriage.
I as thought about them as I often do, one night I realized why God gave me those gifts.
If I learned anything from my lifetime of experiences, don’t worry; God has a plan and He’s there to help you.
I didn’t treat them differently being a girl or boy but gave them all the love, teachings, and God’s wisdom He had given me.
You’ll be fine, don’t worry, God’s with you and soon and the time comes sooner than later, you’ll have a grown woman standing with you on that dance floor and just be goobsmacked when she looks into your eyes and says “I love you daddy!” It’s then when you know, you must of did things right.
what you have been describing is called "situational awareness". its not being aggressive, its being prepared for any threatening situation. its something everyone should do, but few are.
I saw Kenny Rogers in concert a looooong time ago. He's one of the greatest modern story teller entertainers who's ever lived. I think the last time I heard this song, I was a late teen. I had no idea what it was really about back then. This time, the song really hit home. Thank you.
Another great storytelling song by Kenny - The Greatest!!!.
True Story: in 2006 kenny rogers released a song called i cant unlove you, which played on the radio station and i like that song. 6 or 7 years later i called that same radio station and i requested that song and the DJ told me we dont play old country and i was like, are you kidding me? That song was released in 2006 and it played on this station. He said sorry cant play it. Aint that some BS?
This is why I finally stopped listening to country radio.
@@connieclarke8552 yeah same here.
Kenny went to school with my older brothers in law (and they have stories..lol)....we are happy how far he went. Houston Proud.
Growing up I listened to these songs, it's unbelievable now when I hear the lyrics how really mature the lyrics actually were without saying graphic things. I knew as a child, what happened to Becky, and also that Tommy went in and killed all of those men. I have never condoned violence but grew up knowing that Tommy did what he had to. It occurs to me as an adult, that maybe, growing up understanding these life lessons, that we shield our children from, gave me many of my core values and maybe some of these songs would be beneficial to the new generation. Thank you for exposing people to these songs. The contrast between Coward of the county and Bridge over troubled water is huge, but both are strong life lessons on how to be the type of person you should be.
