Dog died, cat left, my horse threw me, my wife is sleeping with my best friend, I'm drunk, and the juke box won't play Willie.
Well, do you?

Not a country song so much as the Jesus & Mary Chain: I'm going to the darklands to talk in rhyme with my chaotic soul. As sure as life means nothing and all things end in nothing. And heaven, I think, is too close to hell. I want to move, I want to go, I want to go. Oh something won't let me go to the place where the darklands are, and I awake from dreams to a scary world of screams....

The stock market's down, I'm too far away from 62, I might lose my job at any moment.
Is there a country song like that?

My life is less a country song than a really badly written soap opera with no viewers because it is so damn boring. Ooooooh, the mailman came!!! A magazine and an American Express bill!!! bumbumbum.

Well, do you? Well, I didn't, but in the last six months I've been abandoned, gotten a divorce I didn't want, been left with debt that had been accumulated without my knowledge, and wrecked my car (by crashing it into a Ford pickup driven by an elderly man who didn't realize my car was coming on the highway). So yeah, a little bit.

If you play the record backwards, everything turns out ok. You get your job back, your girlfriend comes back, etc.

Most quintessential C&W song title ever: "What Made Milwaukee Famous Made a Loser Out of Me."

I like my life, so it probably wouldn't make a good country song.

Seriously, the song that describes my life isn't a country song:

Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Im begging of you please dont take my man
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Please dont take him just because you can
Your beauty is beyond compare
With flaming locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
Your smile is like a breath of spring
Your voice is soft like summer rain
And I cannot compete with you, jolene
and...
I hit the city and
I lost my band
I watched the needle
take another man
Gone, gone, the damage done.
I sing the song
because I love the man
I know that some
of you don't understand

And I had a ticket to see Emmylou Harris, but forgot to go! Now THAT is something to cry over!
She is the fourth act I forget to go see in my 32 years of concert-going:
Desmond Dekker
Pretenders
Los Lobos
Emmylou Harris
It must never happen again.
