Nobody's keeping those one-hit wonders country.
This list could get really touchy with the crossovers and the "what about that song" possibilities. For example, I WON'T list Billy Ray Cyrus since his whole Some Gave All album was really good....but I wish they'd have put that ONE song on the end (his Greatest Hits disc producer did).
Another artist whom I consider a two-hit wonder to be excluded here is country star Johnny Paycheck (Take This Job and Shove It, Colorado Kool-Aid).
And now, the particulars:
Don Cox - Honey Don't Pay The Ransom (I Escaped)
Jeannie C. Riley - Harper Valley PTA

Anthony Smith - If That Ain't Country
B.W. Stevenson - My Maria (WAY before Brooks & Dunn!)
Yankee Grey - All Things Considered
Ty England - Should've Asked Her Faster
Pirates Of The Mississippi - Feed Jake

Note to Okiefan, who despite our common love for country music somehow never puts me on friend's list: I went back and did legitimate research without looking at other people's lists..the first batch I did on my own. I was a country broadcaster through the 80's and you'll get some obscure ones there. Any that match the other's lists is not by stealing. You know me better than that!! Is there a reason I can't put an hour into a great question??
Please E-mail me, Okie....Dodge

I love Anthony Smith.
There's a few Australian country artists that like his songs too.
