As seen in this video herewith….Mel Tillis sings I Got the Hosswith his band live on stage at Austin City Limits in 1979….as one of the many things that we truly enjoy about Mel Tillis….along with his songwriting and singing talent….is the fact that he has three fiddle players in his band….which made the Austin, Texas crowd “tickled pink”…..cuz everyone knows that if you are going to play music in Texas, you gotta have fiddle players in the band….and Mel has three…..plus, this love song is also hilarious….I mean, I’ve got the hoss and you’ve got the saddle.
