American country singer - after time spent in prison he became a country singer - his first album was "Same Train, Different Time: A Tribute to Jimmie Rodgers". Perhaps Merle came to prominence to many in 1966 with 'Swinging Doors' and 'The Bottle Let Me Down'. Although not his first hits, they were among three hits he had that year in the Top Ten. Later hits followed, including 'Branded Man', 'I Threw Away the Rose', 'Mama Tried', 'Today I Started Loving You Again', 'Working Man Blues', 'The Fightin' Side of Me', 'Okie from Muskogee' and 'If We Make It Through December'. The last two songs seem also to have had a major impact in America.

Am I Standing In Your Way Lyrics
Merle Haggard
If he ever gets to you I know he'll ignite the flame
And it hurts to know how close he really came
Last night you both kept dancing when the music ceased to play
Is it all over do you still love me or am I standing in your way
Tell me the way feel I've got to know
Should I stay and keep trying or should I go
Last night he almost made it he's still on your mind today
Is it all over do you still love me or am I standing in your way
[ guitar - horns - steel ]
Tell me the way feel I've got to know
Should I stay and keep trying or should I go
Last night he almost did it he's still on your mind today
Is it all over do you still love me or am I standing in your way
