If this was a top 10 list, Long Black Veil would be in it along with 25 Minutes To Go, Five Feet High and Rising, Orange Blossom Special and Dont Take Your Guns To Town.

pretty tough call.....

as a solo artist

5. Hurt
4. Man In Black
3. I Walk the Line
2. Ring of Fire
2.1 Sunday Morning Coming Down
1. Folsom Prison Blues

There are dozens of songs that could easily be in this list, but these are probably my favorites.....

collaborations

5. Will The Circle Be Unbroken
4. Highwayman
3. Ghost Riders In The Sky
2. It Ain't Me Babe
1. Jackson

June Carters voice sounded like grating aluminum, but together they were special.....

Jackson is my favorite country duet.....

No love for A Boy Named Sue?

Best description of a bar fight in a song, ever.
