Merle Ronald Haggard (April 6, 1937 – April 6, 2016) was an American country singer, songwriter, guitarist, and fiddler. Haggard was born in Oildale, California, during the Great Depression. His childhood was troubled after the death of his father, and he was incarcerated several times in his youth.

Merle Haggard - "Big City". A decade-plus out from "Okie" in 1981, this chart-topper had lyrical content that was in line with some of his best work - a song about the plight of the working man. Haggard’s tribute to slower pace in life made for one of his biggest hits of his run on Epic Records, thanks in part to some tasty fiddle licks from veteran instrumentalist (and one time Bob Wills & The Texas Playboys member) Tiny Moore. 19. Merle Haggard - "Someday When Things Are Good"

These 15 timeless Merle Haggard songs still define one of country music's master storytellers, greatest singers and truest rebels. Haggard updated the old, sorrowful tale of watching an ex-lover leave town, sending her off on an airplane instead of a train. An alternate title could be "I Wonder Why Planes Make Me Lonesome?" 13. "Leonard". This moving story about a musician's mentor pays tribute to Tommy Collins, a fellow songwriter with Oklahoma ties. Collins, born Leonard Raymond Sipes, wrote "The Roots of My Raising," "Carolyn" and other songs recorded by Haggard. 12. "Pancho and Lefty" (With Willie Nelson)
