2. Mama Tried by Merle Haggard
No matter what shenanigans you get into this weekend, this song perfectly captures the facts: that you’re the only one to blame, because Mama tried.

3. Livin’ On Love by Alan Jackson
Alan Jackson perpetually steals our hearts with his songs, and this one is no different. It may not be the super upbeat dance song you were looking for, but it’s pretty darn hard to not tap your toes along to the beat.

4. Gypsy, Joe and Me by Dolly Parton
A free-spirited, somewhat solemn, lesser known song by Dolly Parton brings an element of sweet sadness to this playlist, but is still irresistible because of Dolly’s spot on vocals against her cool musical backdrop.

5. He Stopped Loving Her Today by George Jones
Many consider this the perfect country song for a variety of reasons, and we choose to end this week’s Friday Five with it for that very reason. Enjoy some classic Jones with us.
