Roger Miller - Dang Me
This was Roger Miller's first major country hit and first Top Ten pop music hit. Miller, in his official biography, recalled as having written in four minutes in a Phoenix, Arizona hotel room. Johnny Cash in his last major interview would claim Miller wrote the song at Joshua Tree in California when Miller got out of the car with pen and paper to go write the song. Cash asked Miller what he was doing to which Miller replied "I'm writing a song. You can't come look."
