im a 22 year old who believes in jesus and god and boy i am a small town southern man because god is the superhero and i love it

Who still here in 2024🎉🎉❤❤❤

This song and this music video represents the best that American conservatism can be.

I'm 58, Born in Dallas Texas, raised in Los Angeles CA. Served 21 yrs USMC, Traveled all over the world, lived in 8 different states, been thru every state in the U.S. raised 3 kids, currently raising the youngest number 4 on my own. got 4 grand kids, a yellow lab, pick up truck don't have to live in the south to be a small town southern man at heart.. . Love this song..all about being true to your family, have faith in God and fight for your country. "Greatest contributions are the ones you leave behind" 😁🇺🇸

I'm not a Southern Man. I'm not even an American. But I think you have no idea how many time I've watched this one. Seriously, what happened to this kind of country? This is the American Soul and one of the many reasons why I love the United States so much. Greetings from France

This song was dedicated to my grandfather by the priest in their small southern town.. It was played at his funeral in front of 400 people. Family man, rancher, honorary director for Texas cattle raising association, county commissioner, county judge, man of the year in agriculture, POW korea, but most importantly, my grandfather. This song warms my heart and make me smile so big every time I hear it. Almost like it was written for him.

I’m a a 64 year old English man. This is the song I want played at my funeral. The sentiments in this song resonate with me. Thank you Alan Jackson.

You can break a back, but you can’t break a spirit of a small town southern man 🤠

I'm not also a southern man in America.i'm a Filipino,a cordilleran.. cordillerans loves country music..Allan Jackson is one of our favorite country music singer.. God bless you guys...

I'm french but somehow this speaks about my gramps. Guess small town southern men who bow their heads to Jesus and stand for Uncle Sam are found everywhere somehow.

European descendants that turned a land into a first world nation. I grew up in a small town in Texas, did my time in the Marine Corps, lived out in CA in Orange County and ended up in Kentucky. Reclaimed my pride in who I am and where I come from after getting sucked into left wing politics as a young man. This is a great song and video showing the joy and love that’s worth fighting for ⚡️⚡️

Turns out people from all over the world love Alan Jackson makes me happy

This is the real and genuine country song. 0% nudity 0% bad words 100% talent.

I absolutely love this song; it illustrates traditional American values perfectly, regardless of which part of the U.S. you call home.

By the hand Don't you cry And don't you worry I'm blessed And I know I am 'Cause God Has a place in heaven For a small town Southern man And he bowed His head to Jesus And he stood For Uncle Sam And he only loved One woman He was always proud Of what he had He said His greatest contribution Is the ones You leave behind Raised on the ways And gentle kindness Of a small town Southern man Raised on the ways And gentle kindness Of a small town Southern man

This song reminds me of my grandpa. He was a small town boy from Michigan. After he graduated high school, he married my grandma and had my dad, aunt, and uncle shortly after. They relocated to California for my grandpa’s work. Even though he’s been living in California after all these years, he’s still a midwest man at heart.

This is my favorite Alan Jackson song. It's so reflective of how many of us grew up and where taught by our parents, grandparents and other family. To be hardworking, honest, humble, and love your family, love your wife or husband. To put yourself second behind them. Support our country, respect and help others. To put your faith in God.

I'm Brazilian, in the center of the country, in the southeastern and southern interiors, listening to Alan Jackson a lot. Hugs straight from Brazil ! 🇧🇷

This man has the perfect country voice. No disrespect to George or any other country artist, but Alan's voice just speaks to me. Solid country. Love, love, love his voice.

If you ask anyone what is REAL COUNTRY MUSIC This is the definition From steel guitar to singer you can understand every word he’s saying

I am an African on its center I come. I listen to the song nearly every time when I am to village to see daddy it's playing all the long and it has contributed such that it has given me the courage to build this farm by buying animals eg cattle,pigs and goats... Thanks so very much Alan your song is pushing me on the positive side of my vision. God bless you thanks once more.

It’s sad to see what country has become nowadays. This is real country music.

Born the middle son Of a farmer And a small town Southern man Like his daddy's Daddy before him Brought up Workin' on the land Fell in love With a small town woman And they married up And settled down Natural way of life If you're lucky For a small town Southern man First there came Four pretty daughters For this small town Southern man Then a few years Later came another A boy, he wasn't planned Seven people Living all together In a house built With his own hands Little words with love And understanding From a small town Southern man And he bowed His head to Jesus And he stood For Uncle Sam And he only loved One woman He was always proud Of what he had He said His greatest contribution Is the ones You leave behind Raised on the ways And gentle kindness Of a small town Southern man Raised on the ways And gentle kindness Of a small town Southern man Callous hands Told the story For this small town Southern man He gave it all To keep it all together And keep his family On his land Like his daddy Years wore out his body Made it hard Just to walk And stand You can break the back But you can't break The spirit Of a small town Southern man And he bowed His head to Jesus And he stood For Uncle Sam And he only loved One woman He was always proud Of what he had He said His greatest contribution Is the ones You leave behind Raised on the ways And gentle kindness Of a small town Southern man Raised on the ways And gentle kindness Of a small town Southern man Finally death Came callin' For this small town Southern man He said it's alright 'Cause I see angels And they got me By the hand Don't you cry And don't you worry I'm blessed And I know I am 'Cause God Has a place in heaven For a small town Southern man And he bowed His head to Jesus And he stood For Uncle Sam And he only loved One woman He was always proud Of what he had He said His greatest contribution Is the ones You leave behind Raised on the ways And gentle kindness Of a small town Southern man Raised on the ways And gentle kindness Of a small town Southern man lyric by: azmir@malaysia

His voice was just perfectly crafted for country songs. pure gold ❤

I am hungarian, and I wonder, how Alan Jackson could sing such a beautyful song about my grandfather, the man I always tried to resemble.

Real music, real life, real stories, real country.

.Everyone who's scrolling and listening, I pray that God visit your home with healing, blessings and miracles, hope you live a healthy and joyful life ❤

Reminds me of Grandpa…he passed in 2010…this song still makes me cry, I miss him.

George Jones was so proud of Mr. Jackson. He felt he was carrying on the tradition. Quite an endorsement.

"You can break the back but you can't break the spirit of a small town southern man"...no truer words have ever been spoken...I'll cry when you pass on those words alone...

This song speaks to me of a man that loves God, loved one female, and raises his family until he died.

Pure country music and the song is so touching since l came from a small village up in the mountains.lsland of Borneo.Thank you so much Alan.. God bless you and your family.

Alan jackson’s music makes me really proud to be American and I’m not even American. God’s own country 🇺🇸 🦅

If you're feeling down, listen to classic country music. Nothing makes you feel better than listening to a song about losing your truck, your barn, or your sweetheart!

Its July 2024 partners, and this is still a hit, whos with me? 🙏🏻💪🏻

I remember hearing this son as a young man, but hearing it today in the combine at 37 years old it brought me to tears... It is going to be played at my father’s funeral

Oh, my Daddy, ex-marine, was a small man who worked his life to provide for me and our family! Dad was my best friend, we always sang together! I was lucky, had great parents!

I played this at my Paps funeral yesterday.. He was 84 and boy this song describes my Paps like no other! 🥺

Country music at its finest. Vintage Alan Jackson. Nostalgic . Seeping through with something difficult to describe

As someone born in Russia, I admire Alan Jackson’s music. Was raised in the southern part of it and was raised as a hard worker myself

I'm a small town Southern man, but from the UK. We still play this out here drinking a few cold ones by the fire, sending all the best to you guys across the pond.

My dad was a small town Northern man. These lyrics are a tribute to him! ❤

I love songs because they let me visualize the people they're singing about. I've been listening to this song for so many years. It was sad at the end, though, when death came calling for the small-town southern man.

I'm a fan of Alan Jackson, he has an amazing voice

Now THIS.... this is what country is. Im 15, from Kentucky. Over the years ive seen a few things, unfortunatly- One of those things being ¨Country¨ transformed into something unspeekable. God Bless ya, wish me luck with the rest of my life.

The lyrics moved deep in me. Most especially the last part of death. And i just remembered time will come when I shall accept death. Life is too short indeed

A reminder to future generations: Never let this legendary masterpiece die.

the part where says "you can break the back, but you cant break the spirit of the small town southern man" always remember me to my grandpa, we are from argentina, and with 80 years on his shoulders he still forcing himself to always puts everything he has. I love him so much

I love this song makes me wish I had never married a northerner and allowed him to move me up north it's time to go back home the northern didn't want me he's now married to another northerner may they be happy and may I find a southern in Jesus Christ name

I dedicate this song to Robert ( Bob ) Early 1939-2023 , my friend and role model. RIP Bob ....Godspeed

I am a 60 years old woman from Poland. I used to live in Texas for several years. At that time, I did not realise what treasure the country music was. I love this song and the lyrics - Bowed his head to Jesus, stood by uncle Sam, only loved one woman - what beautiful values... I only wish uncle Sam and all the uncle Sams of other nations stood by the small town man not by the globalists, financiers and international corporations ... but this is another story.

Yup! This nation was built on the backs of small town southern men. Amen, and GOD bless Mr. Jackson!

Can never get tired of alan jackson, brooks and dunn, george strait.

❤❤❤Beautiful song lyrics beautiful song & memories thanks buddy beautiful song for your dad thanks buddy

Campina Grande, Paraíba, Brasil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷 ouvindo a melhor música do mundo, country Music! ❤❤

This man made my life better thru the crap I had to live and endure

Could anyone wish for more? If you you try your best, If you're lucky enough to find a good woman to settle down with, lucky enough to raise your own kids and family and make it work all the while being true to yourself and beliefs...And live a life you can hang your hat on....that's the real American dream. We all die, some of us never live.

Alan singing the most beautiful meaningful songs 🎵 ❤️ Always a country girl 👢 👧 ❤️

This song reminds me of my daddy so much. 😢 today is 8 years since he lost his battle with cancer

I wonder, Mr. Jackson, if you ever read comments on your music here?🥰😇So many people truly love your music. I think you've touched alot of lives and hearts. I love your music, and it has been intertwined with some of my important life events. It has been there with me as I live, creating lasting memories. Words can't express enough all that you have given to me..

Jesus loves y’all so much and never forget that and Jesus died on the cross for our sins and rose the third day

A pride of song!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍👍👍❤❤❤

I lost my Dad in September 2023. This song makes me remember what it was like growing up on the farm. I'm 51. Still cry just about everyday.

This... is the most valuable thing in the world! No money can buy it. The simple, heartfelt life... People should understand that. Thanks Jackson for this!

My dad passed in 2015....he loved this song so much he had it burned on a cd 25 times....he had a 51 disc changer and it is stuck on that cd.....

To my friend and band mate, Jimmy Finch. RIP, will see you again. You embody this song, were the original small town Southern Man. Fair winds and following seas, will sail with you into the mystic someday.

one of my favorite Alan Jackson songs of all time

The best of the best and the last of the true country singers

I am from Botswana (Africa) but this song makes me wanna be a southern man that's for sure.. The narrative and the essence of the song just makes me wanna relocate to that area because in a mystical way it connects me to the ways of southern man.

I am from Europe, but damn I like country music. While growing up, I always wanted to listen to country and drive an 18 wheeler in the USA. Now I am a doctor, but I would still like to fulfill this "fantasy" of mine. I am sorry to see that disgraceful "music" shadows this genre, which in my opinion, is the true American spirit.

In the heart of country music land, A voice rings out so clear and grand. With his cowboy hat and guitar in hand, Alan Jackson's the name of this southern man. His twangy voice, so smooth and warm, Sings of love, heartbreak, and life's many storms. He paints pictures of small-town charm, With tales of whiskey, women, and farms. From "Chattahoochee" to "Remember When", His songs take us back to where we've been. He's sung of angels and the devil's sin, And captured the spirit of Americana within. With over twenty albums to his name, Alan Jackson's legacy will always remain. A true legend of country music's game, A shining star in its hall of fame.

❤❤ it is what you leave behind thats the buitaful thing about life what you leave behind 💯 what ypu take with you 💯 and what you have when you leave trust you can be earth bound 💯 ✨️ and t hat the buity of life god 🙌

I am born in the mountain side of Kibungan, Benguet, Philippines. We love Alan Jackson's songs and some country musics here!

My son is in this at age 11. He dances with Alan’s daughter behind the soldier and you see him come through the crowd carrying a drink

You can break the back, but you can't break the spirit of a small town southern man 😊

I never been to the south I’m from Michigan but god I love how country music really makes me wanna get out there and see everything I haven’t seen all these places people and the meaning behind and beyond it.

As a 27 year old business owner, I feel this. Once you put yourself out there you will do what you have to do to see yourself succeed for yourself and your family. All the uncertainty in the world, I truly feel like a "small town southern man"

This is the type of country music song I love to hear. Songs which define the spirit of humanity. I wonder why don't we have more singers performing such songs! ? !

🙏♥️♥️♥️Very beautiful 😍 song 🎵 and beautiful memories by Alan Jackson youtube music video thank you 🙏 ♥️🥰

I'm Mexican and I identify with this song too. More of this songs and less woke ideology.

Now this is what I call real country music. No sleezyily dressed women just folk enjoying the music including myself. By the way, i'm from the Highlands of Scotland. Xx

I love country music, listening from jalisco, mexico

For those that dont know. This song is the story of Alan Jacksons father. 4 daughters and then Alan was born.

I AM COMPLETELY AND ONLY COUNTRY INSIDE AND OUT INSTANTLY COMPLETELY FORCEFULLY AND FOREVER!!!

I dedicate this song to my husband (to be), and our 6 children... Jonathon Michael you work so hard to give us everything we need and want; You break your body down to provide for us, and you have helped build our dream on this little country edge of the earth that we call our own... Thank you Jesus for the love of my life: J.M.C.! I love you so much! Please be mine forever my Small Town Southern MAN ! Xoxo I love you forever and always!

Pure country music. And a message.

Melhor música, melhor letra, que música, amo demais!

All your songs have something special. This is mainly due to your wonderful way of singing, but also to the choice of very good musicians and of course the good compositions and lyric writing. All of this was essential to be so successful and you certainly didn't miss it! Thanks as always Alan for your beautiful songs. ❤

"He bowed his head to Jesus, and he stood for Uncle Sam".... Yep!

Country always touches the souls across borders n cultures coz it sings of the life n loves of the common man. Awesome video and lyrics and wow that voice.

First heard this song while airborne on a trip to Dubai in 2019. Couldn't just stop as it resonated with my reality. I appreciate my beloved dad and mum for their sacrifice and commitment to raising us their children. I pray for more long life fothem both. Of course, I listened to the song on my return journey to Nigeria 🇳🇬!

My grandfather is in this song. He passed in 1976 and I still get weepy when I hear this song. Thank you Alan! God Bless You.

I am a Kenyan who loves country music. Alan Jackson music is good... I grew up listening to Dolly Parton, Don Williams, Porter wagoner, Kenny Rodgers Charlie Pride, and am hooked to this day

Amo esta música Que viva USA♥️🇺🇸EL mejor país del mundo 🎈🇺🇸💝

Pense numa música que traz uma sensação de paz e alegria. ❤ 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
