My official rankings:

#1 My Old Kentucky Home
I have a lot of love for our country's western most commonwealth.

#2-50 Who the fuck cares? Just listen to My Old Kentucky Home, then pledge Allegiance to the flag.

People from Kentucky are way more ethical.

^^? It's a pretty sweet jam. John Denver is technically singing about Virginia. Still, it's a great song for anyone who frequents their fair share of country roads.

Also, John Denver was a wife beater. Sorta. LOL

YIKES!

ours sucks.

I looked into it. It wasn't "sorta." John Denver confessed to being a full-blown wife beater.

But his comically mellow tunes still kick ass.

2/13/2014 11:30:47 PM

he was also apparently full of shit.

2/13/2014 11:32:35 PM

TN has a few good ones. Rocky Top and the TN Waltz.

Kentucky's should be "Blue Moon of Kentucky"

AHA, tell me more though. I've always been slightly fascinated by the notion of "John Denver."
