Songs of the Year - "Ray's Automatic Weapon"

I'm surprised - very surprised - that "Go Go Boots," the 2011 effort from the Drive-By Truckers, isn't showing up on more "top of the year" lists. It's certainly their best album in a while, maybe going all the way back to 2003.

In any event, the band just keeps truckin' on, and this Patterson Hood gem is the second-best song on the album (hint, hint).
