all I have to say about that is... wow... from the lyrics alone, you wouldn't be able to tell if this song was rap or rock. I'd never expect this to be country of all things.

thanks for tabin this out. I can't wait to play it

Yeah it threw me at the end when the guy started rapping, I guess if they want to be different than any other artist they are succeeding. :o) -Shantel | 7/19/2004 |
HAHAHAHAHAHA. This is crap. I will admit that there are a 'few' decent songs on their album, but this is nothing but (c)rap music. -WildCard76 | 7/20/2004 |
personally i think big and rich goes hard but can anyone tab out the little riff in this song -rettuc2006 | 7/20/2004 |
Very Very Well said there Creekflatts. Embrace this different style of country. I have never liked anything in the country genre since early 90's...till these guys. -lancehicks | 8/4/2004 |
Country music, as does all music fringes on many areas, rock, blues, classical,etc. If one wants to narrow their interest fine, but it's a fun song and more fun to play. If you think your music knowledge exceeds that of your neighbor then maybe you need to go learn to play Toby Keith's song " The Critic" and pay close attention to the lyrics. Play on Ya'll -john_wagnon | 8/8/2004 |
I love country music, and this definitely isn't country. But its a damn cool song. Good tab. -mystikal1116 | 8/9/2004 |
I wonder how many people had these same "This ain't country" comments about Johnny Cash when he first came out. He was just as different than what was coming out then, as these guys are now. -armeeb0i | 8/14/2004 |
what you all complaing about country is gettin newer everyday this is just the ideal they see it..and i think its kewl b'cuz its fun to play on guitar...and can neone tab out Saved by Big&Rich? email me when you do fish_man4@hotmail.com -lil_playa | 9/8/2004 |
How can you compare these guys to Johnny Cash? Do y'all even know who Johnny Cash is? I bet he would never think of doing a song which mixes country with lil jon -jordan mergele | 9/9/2004 |
Just depends on if you love country because of the music or country because of the name........country. Keep your type casting.I'll take the music everytime...Keep Rollin'!!! -gartarz | 9/23/2004 |
hi mom! ! ! .> .> | \ / \________/ -flea_jr | 10/12/2004 |
I think it rocks the are putting some diff stuff in there, why not have some fun with musicka -huntinguy88 | 10/28/2004 |
...Funny, but in my defense of all musical genres, I use Johnny Cash music, (Jerry Reed, too) as examples of early rap. Do "Y'all" remember "A Boy Named Sue?"... or "Amos Moses" ?!!! Also, hon- don't ever forget - Johnny Cash was all about being yourself... and not falling into a line, just because someone thought he should. Have we finally lost ALL freedom in this country... I mean, I figured there were a few weeks more, at least!!! By the way- take a listen again (hopefully) to a Johnny Cash song called "What is Truth"...pretty much sums up Cash's feelings about youth and new ideas. -Mrsblu66 | 11/9/2004 |
If you like country music, then you like Hank Williams Jr. and he happens to be a really big fan of these 2. and we all know that he has always been a little on the wild side. -firemanffd669 | 11/10/2004 |
OMG... Johnny Cash did a Nine Inch Nails song, and god forbid even worse, a Danzig song..... lmao people are a bunch of retards fightin about what category they fall into... obviously Johnny wasn't as narrow minded as the people viewing these tabs that shouldn't even be lookin' at em' in the first place if they dont like them.... As I said in my post on the intro to this song, if you dont like it, dont listen, and i'll try not to drown us all a with my tears as I cry for you when you have your button pushing induced fit when you hit your "tune" button on the radio.... roflmao Anyway, thanks Shantel, sounds right on to me...;) -travo777 | 11/22/2004 |
instead of "just want to hear everybody sing" its "just want to hear everybody SAY" -TGcountry | 11/28/2004 |
The basic Idea about johny cash ... with what is being said about the difference in music for the time of country music in OUR generation? Take another look @ someone else Elvis for that matter. People critisized his Hip movments and sexual gestures...But he is just as much rock as Big and rich is country. He created his own style or rock Just what Big kenny had in mind when he formed the group. Their own style. It's amazing that someone can come up with a new style of music considered how many their are out there. It is nothing more then a sub-genre in country music. It's like slow country, and rock country. Just another sub-genre mixed into the melting pot of country music. Who likes Rascal Flatts? Damn good country group but Gary Levoux sounds nothing like the stereotyped country voice...No tang, just nasal. And he is amazing. IT's great they have rap in country. I hate rap but it is bold and brave to stick something like that out on the shelves:) -CountryRocks | 12/19/2004 |
If you ask me about any of this stuff, i like big & rich, i think people should just forget about genera and listen to the music they like and not worry about which category it fits in. -guitargurl35 | 2/20/2005 |
I hear a songwriter describe this group, the other night. She called them a 'spectacle'. I could not agree more. -WildCard76 | 2/21/2005 |
These guys are awsome, no question. Making the kind of music they want and hoping people like it. Some will and some wont.
Kid Rock bought rap into country with Hank Jnr and also some of his own stuff could be considered country too.
Just listen and enjoy. If you like it, tell everyone. if you dont, keep quiet and let me enjoy it. -takerUK | 3/3/2005 |
The good thing about country is this: it is open to anyone and everyone. Big Kenny and John Rich are as country as Alan Jackson or George Jones: they just have a different interpreation of what constitutes country music. If you don't like the music, then why in God's name are you lookin at the tabs for their songs?
Great job on the tab, Shantel. You're one of the few people who consistently hits the bull's eye. -twizzle05 | 3/5/2005 |
this is just me. but i like to play this song in drop D tuning.
Love everybody -Lenderman_k | 3/9/2005 |
Do you guys even know what country music is, big and rich sucks, if Johnny Cash were here he'd "take a hit of cocaine, and shoot {Big and Rich} down" Im with mergs -naterman1 | 3/10/2005 |
To embrace tolerance is to cease to believe in anything. -WildCard76 | 4/29/2005 |
Like Big and Rich or not, you have to give them credit for taking the risk with this song to help a friend....yes help a friend. Cowboy Troy had no record deal and no real way to be heard, heck, no one had ever heard of him. He just released his first cd not two weeks ago. I wont say that Cash would have went out of his way to put lil john on a cd, but i know he was MAN enough to help a friend git a start, even if his friend was a rapper. and yes, compare Cash with his contemporaries. he was every bit as over the edge at that time as B&R is now. When it comes down to it, you have to say screw genre lines and listen to what "moves your soul."
oh yeah, great tab shantel, i've never found one of yours that isnt perfect -henry | 5/25/2005 |
"To embrace tolerance is" WHAT?!! Hey wildcard (ironic title...) R U a Neo-Con? ...-Or just a communist?
There's only one thing I completely do not agree with... people who hate Freedom, and freedom of expression. How truly sad... -Mrsblu66 | 6/18/2005 |
i think the song rocks and you gotta hand it to Big and Rich for doin somethin different instead of the same sound everone has. -fretboardfreak | 6/23/2005 |
Who ever said this song was crap is a dumbass. Who are you to say any thing? -amandatomboy13 | 7/13/2005 |
wow dude how could you hate on this song or on Big & Rich and not hate on Garth, Tim or Kenny who combine country music with a different genre...this hybrid style is sick and is definitely a huge contributor to the recent popularity of country music...good tab -KevLeg915 | 7/15/2005 |
