One correction -- You Never Even Called Me by My Name was written by Steve Goodman ad John Prine -- folk singers joking around. Steve's best song is short -- I Ain't Never Heard You Play No Blues. (It will get you to laughing.)

But his best known song is City of New Orleans.

Can you tell I'm more into folk than country? But Willie is one of my favorite all time singers.

Seriously dude, what's wrong with you? The man is dead. He died September 12,2003. DO YOUR RESEARCH before you accuse people of being insulting. Oh and btw, June Carter Cash is dead too. Johnny died of complications from diabetes.
