One of the greats. I have to wonder though... are they going to prop him up beside the juke box?

RIP Joe Diffie
My favorite song of his was Ships That Don't Come In.

Re: Joe Diffie, Nineties Country’s ‘Pickup Man,’ Dead at 61 From Coronavirus
It’s just frightening how fast one can come down with the virus and die within a couple days. Joe was, from all accounts, a fine man. An everyday Joe for the people.

Re: Joe Diffie, Nineties Country’s ‘Pickup Man,’ Dead at 61 From Coronavirus
"you can set my truck on fire and roll it down a hill....I still wouldn't trade it for a Coupe d'Ville…"
RIP Mr. Diffie I used to have a coworker who's actual name was William Robert (he went by Bill) and his wife's name was Sharleen... Their song was John Deere Green... Billy Bob loves Charlene. Heartbreaking. May the Lord help us through these crazy times.
