As I write BFMH and venture deep into the psyche of contemporary country, I'm finding more sides of the country coin. This entry...is about the country sex jam.
There are some deep unrequited love songs in country, the very frame of the genre. From George Strait to Johnny Cash, the love song runs deep in the blood of the country community. But the sex jam, that's a little more difficult to find. The only older proper *bedroom jam* I can find is Jimmy Buffett's "Why Don't We Get Drunk (And Screw)", which is thoroughly excellent, but a rare sex jam in a field of love songs.
So thanks to Big and Rich, who bring the fuck jam with "Save A Horse (Ride A Cowboy)" -- thanks to yallwire.com, another fierce retort to the Washington Post's critique of internet-loving country fans*.
Big and Rich really tap into the R&B sex jam on "Save A Horse," name-dropping Escalades and "Bling-blinging", although I'm not quite sure they know what that means, since the video makes it look like they think it means "a weird parade on a bridge". What I really love, lyrically, about this song is the fact that they're not about cherishing small-town values, but instead bringing the small-town dickswinging to the city, or as Big and Rich put it, the citayyyyyyyyy. In the country tradition, a country sex jam *should* be about the things the singer likes about doin' it, but instead asserts that any city girl can't resist a country boy, especially when he's introducing her to his "bird dog" and singing her Willie Nelson.
My point is, I say thumbs up to referring to your dick as your bird dog.
* Although I will note, Brad Paisley needs to update his effin' twitter.
