Pirates of the Mississippi

You got to get me to the church on the Cumberland Road

Ah, Feed Jake by Pirates of the Mississippi, the song that proves country music could make you cry while also reminding you to check on your dog, your friends, and possibly your emotional support possum.

Released in 1991, this heartfelt tune became one of the band's biggest hits, with its story about friendship, loyalty, and a dog named Jake, who apparently had a better retirement plan than most humans.

And speaking of feeding Jake, when are they gonna write a song called Feed Pongo? Yeah, I know, buddy.

It's all good.

I got you covered, my friend.

Here's Pirates of the Mississippi.

This is called Feed Jake.

Bless Texas.

That's a double shot of hot country videos right there, Pirates of the Mississippi and Aaron Neville.

That's a big song that was made popular by George Jones many years ago.

The old possum.

...

Mississippi.

No. What? [laughs]

I thought you were about to say Pirates of the Caribbean.

That was my first thought.

Oh, there was a, there was a band, my friend's dad was in a, a band called Pirates of the Mississippi.

What's his name, man?

What was the name of that movie, Zeph?

Jake? Yes.

Pirates of the Mississippi.
