I got the cover off the '68. I fired it up, and let them horses sing.
Chug a lug a luggin' 5 miles an hour On my International Harvester

I'm ok with those lyrics.
Zac Brown in reference to the last song above:
“If I hear one more tailgate-in-the-moonlight, daisy dukes song, I’m gonna throw up.”
That's actually pretty funny!

Isn't that the "western" portion of country AND western music?
I don't regularly listen to much C&W stuff, except a bit of older Joe Diffie and Alan Jackson's "Mercury Blues", oh and any of the Hayseed Dixie bluegrass style riffs on rock songs. But I have heard quite a bit of the southern rock and southern pop that passes for the Country side of C&W as my wife goes around the Sirius XM dial. I dont' mind it, but I'm not going to search it out.
But, then again, I like a bit of J-pop and Japanese metal and punk in my collection so what do I know? (Babymetal and Band Maid rock!)

Murder songs. I will soon have a new pandora station consisting of murder songs.

I actually like this a lot more then most of the modern "country music".
I won't embed the video, but here is a comedy routine deconstructing modern country.
May be NSFW, since it is an adult comedy routine.
