What"s the saddest country song?

I'd nominate "The Backside of Thirty."

"He Stopped Loving Her Today" by George Jones (1980).

"Old Shep."
Having to shoot your best friend, your dog, to put him out of his misery? Not exactly a toe tapper.

One of my favorites is a song [i]about[/i] sad country songs:

"They Ought To Put Warning Labels on Sad Country Songs..."

I'd never thought of it as sad. But...I see what you mean.

"Lady," by John Denver. 💔
"Burning Memories" --Ray Price is a great one. But I thin kit is a tie--and the two were released wituin a year of each other. Either

"El Paso" by Marty Robbins or
"Give My Love to Rose" -Johnny Cash
I find a lot of covers johnny cash did to be sorta sad...hurt,desperado,tear stained letter were tough ones
**sober Saturday night and whiskey lullaby**

Anaconda. Sorry, I'm just joking
For me it's between "Whiskey Lullaby" and "He Stopped Loving Her Today".
