“I Take A Lot Of Pride In What I Am” #3 Country 1/18/1969

Here’s a country Top 5 from this week in ‘69 by Merle Haggard. He had four #1’s in a row just prior to this, and four more #1’s in a row just after. Dean Martin redid this one later in the year and had a Top 20 on the easy listening chart. Merle’s version was played at the funeral of original Lynyrd Skynyrd lead singer Ronnie Van Zant, who was a huge fan of the Hag.
