I am not a huge fan of country music but there is something in the stories… particularly the music and voice of Don Williams. If you have never heard him take a listen.
Two of my faves… this one just leads me to relax and revel in the simple joys:
“I’m Just A Country Boy”

and this one makes me cry sometimes…. I played it for my wife. :-)
“Your My Best Friend”
