Oh I’m lost in a world without Haggard It’s a world I thought I would never see [Instrumental Bridge] [Verse 2] He gave his life to country music he’s the best that’s ever been An honest voice of reason like we won’t see again If I could hear one last song it’s Merle that I would choose He was my greatest inspiration the reason why I sing the blues He was my greatest inspiration the reason why I sing the blues

La chanson évoque la perte d'un immense artiste, une figure emblématique de la musique country, dont l'influence a marqué profondément le chanteur. En parcourant les routes, il se remémore la vie et l'héritage de cet homonyme, dont les notes ont façonné sa carrière et son amour pour la musique. Il décrit comment cet artiste a surmonté des épreuves personnelles et a su inspirer des générations avec une authenticité rare. La mélancolie se fait ressentir alors qu'il imagine un monde sans la voix sincère et vivante qui a tant compté pour lui. C'est un hommage rempli de gratitude, mais aussi de tristesse devant une absence qui laisse un grand vide.
