This here is Tater Totts and I helped out David Snyder with his submission to the Xtra Styles Country Category, because I am in it to win it, and I'm gonna kill it and skin it. https://soundcloud.com/david-snyder-gigs2/i-know-countrySpecs: Category_Country (Is there another???) Main style:DethVly3. Then I added some Xtra Xtra Styles5. Which ones? Well, my first thought was to say none of your business, but if you really have to know I used pretty much ALL of them, because I didn't hear a bad one in the bunch. They all sound country to me. And so I'll tell you the same thing I told Gregg Allman: I know country, like a can of spam, like a cold Budweiser, in a tall Deer Stand. I Got CountryBy David Snyder Intro: Yeah this is Tater Totts And I heard there was a contest going on here You know I had to throw down if it’s country So let’s do it V1 Popping out my skoal can Little bit of hot damn Slinging in My Dodge Ram Smoking up a big ham Hanging with the big dogs Walking like a fat hog Throwin down a beer can Getting me a sun tan Playin’ in a jam band Little bit a Alabam Little bit of Jack Black Girl I’m gonna throw back And I can drive your truck And with a little bit of luck I'm gonna get me some white tail Cause I’m the big Buck And I hunt white tail all year year round V2 And you can cut my heart out But I love you anyway Cause your bourbon kissin Is what I’m missin’ I need it every night and day CH Cause I got country Like a big hot damn Like a can of spam Like cold Budweiser In a tall deer stand I know country like the back of my hand V3 And sometimes I wish I had Just a little more of you But you’ve given me enough of that stuff And I guess that'll do! V4 Cause I’m a racing And I’m running And I’m driving like a bat out of hell V5 But sometimes I'm lonely And I wish I could write A song that sounds like Floyd But I’ve never worn those cowboy pants So it’s a dream I have to avoid V6 But I can write song that sounds like Nashville With a tailgate party that will stand the test And I can rock and roll, I can rock and roll With the very best V7 And think about our mountain home When you was only sixteen Barefoot and pregnant in those Appalachian Hills While I ran that still in the mountain stream V8 Then old Neil Young came and wrote about us But Neil Young better watch his self Cause he’s been wearing that same old plaid shirt for three decades And I tell ya, I kinda hate the smell CH But I got country Like a big hot damn Like a can of spam Like cold Budweiser In a tall deer stand I know country like the back of my hand I got country, like can of spam like a big yes ma'am like a cold Budweiser, in a tall deer stand I know country like the back of my hand I know country like the back of my hand Words and Music copyright 2018 by David Snyder, ASCAP/Day of Faith Records Tracks include most of the Country Styles in Xtra Styles Pak 5, so they are too numerous to mention. Produced, arranged, mixed and engineered by David Snyder. Vocals by the legendary Tater Totts, the "King of Country."

It is a combination of REM's It's The End Of The World As We Know it, Billy Joel's We Didn't Start The Fire meets The Stones The Girl With The far Away Eyes meets Ray Stevens, The Streak and Charlie Daniels' The Devil Went Down To Georgia! What a oombination! Totally enjoyed this one. Sounds good enough to win. Great job.

David,
Ok, let's see if I can describe this...
It's almost as if Bob Dylan's Nashville Skyline tapes blew up in a million pieces and were reassembled by Roger Miller and Weird Al Yankovic. LOL!
It's great - so very creative and full of energy... LOVED IT START TO FINISH!
Bob

Very well done, my friend.

Hello, David
Your interpretation on this is really really wonderful.
The proper use of characters is so good.
I think that you are very very versatile.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

Hey Tater,
Have you thought about doin' a country song????
Love the changes throughout. An the lyric, well it's just downright awesome! I particularly like this part:
Cause I got country
Like a big hot damn
Like a can of spam
Like cold Budweiser
In a tall deer stand
I know country like the back of my hand
Reminds me of my father. He died in 1969. But you gave him a short breath of life - thanks! Now, I like a fried Spam sandwich (A little mustard please) and an ice cold Bud Select.
That was downright awesome! You can breathe now!
I think tater outdid Hank Snow's "I've been Everywhere" for most words in a little over three minutes. BTW, this is your best vocal, in my opinion. Standing "O"!

Some great funny stuff here Tater!! I rarely listen to a song where I can't read the lyrics fast enough to keep up with the vocal. I particularly liked this verse, and the Neal Young one too!
And you can cut my heart out
But I love you anyway
Cause your bourbon kissin
Is what I’m missin’
I need it every night and day
Great stuff David!! You have a unique mind! Take care. Greg

You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Thanks Floyd.
You know I just can't seem to write a country song without getting you in there someone.
It's kind of like trying to say Jack with adding Daniels.
It just ain't country and it never works.

Bob, That is probably the most mind-boggling concept I have ever heard. I think I will start writing a concept album on that!!
