Songs about the outdoors, the country, being in nature

[Greggorios]

Catfish don’t jump out of the water but like that doobies song.

, well, no they don't...unless you use a little bit of dynamite.

 

[Chiogtr4x]

One of my favorite John Prine songs. Man I miss this guy:

" ...Shadows!! "

( one of the loudest John Prine vocal moments I can remember )

I'm picking at home right now, and play a lot of early John Prine songs mostly for finger/brain exercises ( and do some at gigs too) everyday.

Just finished playing Sam Stone, Fish and Whistle, and All The Best- something intoxicating about playing these simple/solid guitar progressions, you can't stop, they just "roll!"

He was a real gift to the world

 

[Greggorios]

" ...Shadows!! "

Agreed. That full line that goes with "...Shadows" is just so, so..?...so John Prine!

This song shouldn't be allowed to be posted here. Political content (communist).

I've always preferred the alternate, more historically correct version, myself.

This land is my land
This land is my land
Just had to kill off
Those pesky Indians....

....This land was made for yours truly!!

Heart Of The Country - Paulie and Linda (post-Beatles, pre-Wings)

 

[Whatizitman]

This felt amazing to me since I was very young. Long before I was old enough for TDPRI to tell me I'm not supposed to like Eagles.

 

[Whatizitman]

Another one for the haters. I grew up in the SoCal. There's a special place in my heart for the all the southwestern deserts regions. So, as an extremely dorky teenager, I would blast this on road trips.

Reminds me of another Greg Brown tune (maybe my favorite) that fits this thread to a tee:

When Fall Comes To New England ~ Cheryl Wheeler

 

[schmee]

I guess Hurricanes are 'nature':

Reminds me of another Greg Brown tune (maybe my favorite) that fits this thread to a tee:

Alright, one more Greg Brown, from my favorite GB album; I would like to point out that he does have a livelier side, though.

sitting under the oak, among the old folk



the last time we had a bonfire
