Songs About Kickin’ Ass

I’m starting a series on The 9513 titled “Songs About” and then I’ll choose a topic and find as many country songs about that topic as I can. Today’s topic is “Kicking Ass.” Below are a few of the songs I came up with that are about kicking ass, and a couple of them even make you want to kick some ass of your own after hearing them.

Songs like This Cowboy’s Hat are about sticking up for what you believe in and not letting people trample on you, some of them are just story songs (Pancho & Lefty and In Lonseome Dove), and maybe others you can apply to your life, such as telling your boss to shove it. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the ass kickin’.

• This Cowboy’s Hat – Chris Ledoux
