Wow what??? Story time please...💖

My 3 brothers and I had a band in the late 70s and we must have done that song 1000 times. Really brings back memories. Fantastic job.

@@carsonmckeemusic Back then very few people knew about John Prine so the audience thought we wrote all those songs.🤣

He was such a great songwriter. Thank you for doing him proud with this great rendition. The pause for a swig killed me! 🍺

Great rendition of that John Prine song Carson. The socks and beer were a classic, I think John would have liked that

The break for beer and socks was a great touch! 😊👌🏼

I literally woke up this morning wishing you had some more John Prine covers. lol :D

Gotta love John Prine! Quintessential American song writer. He could have you laughing one minute and crying the next. Nicely done.

This Carson McKee is my new favorite country singer! Makes me want to buy an old, beat-up car and drive for the desert and keep driving until it all runs out.

John Prine was one of the best story telling song writers ever. This is an awesome cover Carson, keep em rollin'!

I had a history professor introduce me to John Prine. He would burn CDs for me, for which I have become eternally grateful. Love this cover.

Great work my friend! Nice playing and sweet sound! Keep the covers coming! 🎸

Handsome Johnny would love this. I wish he was still here to listen with us. RIP

Carson - thank you for choosing John Prine to cover. Great job. Love your music.

Good lord, John could straight up write his ass off. Good job.

I was smiling even before i heard you sing the first note. And, as always, you really delivered the goods. I hope you realize how much joy you bring to folks with your musical talents, sense of humor, and caring attitude. A friend of my recently shared and old youtube vid of a song he wrote that contained the following line, “be kind, self-aware… and just be.” I think you’ve got that down pretty good. Hey, if you are taking requests, Jim Croce’s tune Hey Tomorrow is one I think you could really wrap your vocal chords around. Take good care and thanks for the great music. ~ Mark

Love the drop D. I have to practice the funky way you do the G chord. I always watch for your latest Carson. You and all your friends are so talented. Always love anything Prine. This is Burlington Bill busking on the road and here on YOU TUBE.

What a hoot! Gotta love a John Prine song. Thank you, Carson. Great stuff!

Sweet Revenge was one of many albums i started listening to at the ripe ol age od 6 years old. Been a huge John Prine fan ever since. My first concert was The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band in 1973, i was 5. Thank you daddy for my love of music, i got it from you.❤

I’ve been playing that song for 40 years and never thought to stop and drink a beer… but I will now!🤣 Thanks Carson!

All truth and no hanging back - Prine cuts!

LOVE IT... Saw John in 79 at UNC-G ...My family knows this is the song they will sing at my funeral...(Do Dear Abby)"You are what you are and you ain't what you ain't"..

Brilliant - I loved the pause to take a sip of beer!

What a nice song. You’re truly a talented young man.

Absolutely love it, one of the great underrated John Prine tracks, glad you picked it Carson 😀

Very nice, Carson!

Love it and the beer was a nice touch! Please more John covers!

Great cover. Ooh "Give my Love to Rose", there would be great song to cover.

Voice like butter and always entertaining. That was fabulous!

Great rendition!

Well done Carson, thanks for everything you do.

RIP John, one of the greatest lyricists ever...and my big ears dont make me biased at all....... lol

great video, and still superb voice Carson! way to go!

Awesome cover Carson . That is a great song of John’s .

Nice cover Carson and you sound great! 😊🎵

Really nice. Always love hearing folks singing John Prine songs. One of those people I never got to meet but miss every day.

I enjoy everything you do, and yet, this is a standout! ❤

Excellent! Thanks for making the contemplation of death so humorous!

Thank you Carson. Very enjoyable.

Man that was an excellent rendition of that song! Listening to you singing some of my favorite songs brings me joy. So thank you! Keep on pickin brother…… 😎

i’ll be honest it’s 1am in munich right now, i’m drunk and you and me just downed a beer to this tune. vibes!

Great job singing this John Prine song Carson, John would be impressed and pleased of your rendition. I really like John Prine's songs and his brilliant wit and way with words. I saw him in concert at Portland, Me. -- R.I.P. John Prine and thank you for your contribution of wonderful songs and entertainment for us to enjoy.

Loved this Carson.

Thanks - one of the first songs I learned back in the 70s

Love it! Thank you 🎉

Good one, thanks!

Thank you once again Carson for putting a smile on this old soul.

Super Super cover!!!!!!! I have never heard this song. I will be checking it out. Thanks for sharing. Great job!!!!!!👍👍👍 Be Happy, Dave 😎

Another delightfully well done cover. ☺️👏👏👏

John just had the best lyrics. So excited you covered this. Well done man. Now, do you dare do Donald and Lydia?

Love & a sense of humor ❤ that’s what we all need, thanks for that

Great stuff Carson

Certainly made me smile!

so good that voice !

awesome!

Well done!

Even Elvis loved this song...True Story...

❤❤❤

Prine was a genius 😊

Carson, you are just great!

Haha, pure magic. Thank you Carson!

Made my day 😊

I was introduced to you because of your cover of "Wagon Wheel Take 2" with Josh Turner! Being a guitarist (who had yet to develop any meaningful vocal-ability) I was besotted by the talent of you young dudes! (I'm probably 20 or more years older!) For a few years, I wrongfully assumed Josh was the "bigger talent". HUGE as he is, I finally have come to realize that YOU are actually the more "gifted with the magic"! (NOT to poo-poo on the technique-technical-minded Josh!) ...anywho, You are my other favorite!

Nothing like a John Prine song sung well.

Good song, well rendered... from limb to limb!!

Thanks! Carson

You do this so well...thanks!

Excellent! Great job.

Great cover. And the drink break lol

More Prine!... C'est la vie

Fun!

Lol, that’s awesome

Well done my friend

Americana needs Mr. McKee.

When u do your fine covers of Dylan and now J.P. - your voice is too perfect - kinda throws me off lol

Poifect. Like JP wrote it just for you.

OK, I thought the tempo was just a bit slow however, the beer break was awesome!

Can you put together a compilation video of your tunes. 180K seconds of Carson.

What happens at 50 seconds? Am I hearing something that's not there, or is there a little twitch in the recording?

I'm not sure - since both mics are in a figure 8 (or close to) pattern, I think one of them was picking up some slapback from my computer monitor or desk. That might be what you're hearing.
