    Default Funny Country Song Titles

    I used to play in a classic country duo, and while looking for material I came upon some lists of funny country song titles. They weren't all funny, some were just weird, or stupid, but most of the time, clearly an attempt had been made to create a memorable turn of phrase though using puns and other wordplay. I compiled a list of these, four pages long, and would read from it for comic relief. Funny to think it was through this process that I first heard of Kenny Chesney (''She Thinks My Tractor’s Sexy'')

    This has been on my mind for a few weeks, since I saw Jeff Daniels (yes, the actor) do a song he wrote called ''Baby, Take Your Tongue Out Of My Mouth, I'm Kissing You Goodbye'' on Craig Ferguson's show. It was two minutes of brilliance and sarcasm served up with a rollicking ragtime-blues progression. I later learned there are a few songs with nearly the same titles, by Ray Stevens and John Denver, and Waylon Jennings had a song ''Kissing You Goodbye'' with that entire sentence in its refrain. Here is the song that started it all, with a couple others for comparison. I assume this particular turn of phrase was irresistible to songwriters of a humorous bent.









    This came up recently on another thread, and I thought it best to start a thread devoted to this immensely illuminating topic, rather than continue to derail that one. I've lost the old list, and had to take a little time to come up with a new one. So I present this list for your amusement and enlightenment, and it surely will be added upon over time. It's in two parts owing to its length. Sorry the break comes right between the eyes. Nothing to be done; too many I’s on this list …

    [Disclaimer: Don’t shoot the messenger! If you have questions regarding these, bear in mind I am the editor, not the writer or compiler. I know only about twenty of these songs myself; I make no claim as to the accuracy or even existence of all of these. Indeed, some of the songs on the list are all-time country classics; I assume their inclusion is due to the taste of someone who doesn’t know better. And since country music deals with adult themes and strong emotions, some of these titles may be offensive and even risqué. Please just enjoy them as you will. And feel free to add more titles as you see fit. And moderators - My eyes began to glaze over after a certain point. If I let anything too naughty slip through please just remove it rather than the whole thing. Don't throw the baby out with the bath water. Hey - that could be a song right there! Hmmm ...]

    Most of these sound like Irish sayings, like "Though the honey be sweet, do not lick it off a briar".

    I can't help thinking that this recurring "I am over you" topic is just wishful thinking and thereby opposite proof, and that this is the really funny part (like Fred Flintstone mumbling "I love my mother-in-law, I love my mother-in-law"). Whatever you are over with is supposed to be out of your mind, so how can you write a song about it, etc. etc.

    My dad knew a version of the one song: I Like Bananas Because They Have A Peel. I sang that one and the other (because they have no bones) to my kids (the title is the whole song, by the way) and cemented my place in their hearts as really, really eye-rolling.

    When I was a kid I use to sing an old Homer and Jethro song: "Daddy Played First Base" sung to the tune of Daddy Sang Bass.

    one of the lines: we played the red legs and beat their legs off, we played the red sox and beat their socks off, we played the Astros, but it rained that day..

    I've done a little more sifting through the interweb and turned up some more entries, plus the ones you've been posting, and am adding these to the list. Well, eventually - this is the to-be-added list. I think some of these are more novelty tunes than country songs, but I'm also pretty sure they would track well in a sawdust-on-the-floor honky-tonk. The version of the UFO song Charley came up with is by Joe Dolce, who had a good-sized hit a few years back with ''Shaddap Your Face,'' in mock Italian. Good call with the Vince Gill song, Gerry - that's real recent, as is the Brad Paisley song about ticks. Shows the tradition continues. In fact, I first heard Vince's song when he played it on a talk show, and I about fell on the floor when he got to the punch line! I really wasn't ready for that.

    I already listed I'm My Own Grandpa and Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer.

    (Just kidding ; this is all fair game.)

    Funny thing is, if you take the time to work out the genealogy in I'm My Own Grandpa, it actually does work: A family tree with circles and spirals in it, but nothing naughty.

    I played in a bluegrass band in upstate New York many years ago, and the guitar player used to do a funny version of a famous country gospel tune, which he titled "Mother's Not Dead, She'd Only Been Drinking."

    Wasn't there a song something like "Please Daddy, don't get drunk this Christmas"? Many years ago, I think on the old WLS Barn Dance, somebody sang a song with a title or line, "I'll never forget what's her name"

    But - but - Did you not see the very next phrase: "plus the ones you've been posting???" OOPS!

    I vaguely remember that. I think that was a big hit back in I forget when by I can't remember who. And the other song - that's not funny; that's so sad!

    Conway Twitty has a song called "I've Already Loved You In My Mind", which, combined with the album cover, always struck me as kinda creepy...

    one of the lines: we played the red legs and beat their legs off, we played the red sox and beat their socks off, we played the Astros, but it rained that day..
    I like this one. Reminds me of the image I conjure up when I think about the spring training Astros - that would be in Kissimmee.
