Billy Joe Shaver, 2 of 6
Aired on Cinemax: 2017.10.20
By all accounts, Billy Joe Shaver should never have made it in country music. A poor Texas kid from a broken family, he lost three fingers in a sawmill accident before ever writing a song. Despite his physical challenge, Shaver landed in Nashville as a singer/songwriter with hard luck songs about real life. A chance meeting with Waylon Jennings in the back of a peanut trailer led to the breakthrough 'Outlaw' album Honky Tonk Heroes, featuring Waylon singing songs written by Billy Joe. A decade later, Shaver made a name for himself after shooting a man at a roadside tavern for allegedly talking to his soon-to-be ex-wife. The gun play led to a celebrity trial and a shocking verdict. And, of course, Billy Joe wrote a song about it.

Jerry Garica lost a finger chopping wood and Toni Ioni lost that same finger in a factory

Texas was still segregated at the time, the nurse could not have been black.

"can i has them fingers" sounds a lot more like aave than how a white texan girl would talk though to be fair
