Like everyone else, my list might change tomorrow.

"Living Bubba"...probably always be on my list.
"The Company I Keep"...not Patterson's best lyrics, but come on.
"Righteous Path"

Hard to leave off "Uncle Disney", and a lot of others.....but the list calls for 3.

Living Bubba, of course
Righteous Path
Mercy Buckets

As tough and as changeable for me as for everyone else, I guess, but "Living Bubba" will probably always be on any list at least 2 songs long.

Special mention for "Everybody Needs Love" perhaps Patterson's best vocal on record even though it's not "his" song.

1. Bubba (think any list has to start with this)
2. People on the Moon (IMO the quintessential DBT song)
3. Incredibly tough to choose - basically take your pick from SRO

"The Living Bubba" -- the song that put Patterson on the map as a songwriter

"Heathens" -- One of Patterson's signature songs

"World of Hurt" -- It's great to be alive
