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.

Chill Factor Lyrics
Merle Haggard
Seems like every November
When the weather gets bad
I start to remember
all the good times we had
the long nights get longer
I Wish an friend would come by
The forecast is zero
And the chill factors high
you know the chill factors higher
On a cold windy day
but theres no wind this morning
And no wind on the way
Theres a snowstorm inside me
With record high wind
And i'm colder this morning
Than i've ever been
Seems like every november
When the weather gets bad
I start to remember
The good love we had
And the long nights get longer
Wish an old friend would drop by
The forecast is zero
And the chill factors high
