Blake Shelton - Boys 'Round Here (ft. Pistol Annies)

Boys 'Round Here is a great example of a country song that really tries to get as many stereotypical country references in as humanly possible. To wit:

• Honky tonk
• 4 wheel drive
• Truck
• Beer
• Man upstairs (God/Jesus category)
• Chew tobacco (spit)
• Girls
• Dirt roads
• Backwoods
• Dixie
• South

That's a LOT of country references! Let's compare them against the standard against which all perfect country & western songs are gauged:

• Mama  X
• Trains  X
• Trucks  ✔
• Prison  X
• Getting drunk  ✔

Sorry, Mr. Shelton. You only hit 2 of the 5 requirements for a perfect C&W song. Step it up.

Also, this song is awful.
