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.

I Always Get Lucky With You Lyrics
Merle Haggard
I've had good luck, and bad luck
And no luck, it's true
But I always get lucky with you
I've been turned on, and turned down
When the bars close at two
But I always get lucky with you
I've had two strikes against me
Most all of the time
And when it's down to just a phone call
I'm minus a dime
I've had good days, and bad days
But when the day is through
I always get lucky with you
Oh, I always get lucky with you
