Merle Ronald Haggard was born on April 6 in 1937 in Oildale, California. In honor of his birthday, check out this Austin City Limits performance of “Working Man Can’t Get Nowhere Today.” Happy birthday Hag.
Haggard appeared on a number of TV shows during the 1970s. We have previously mentioned his appearance on the Centennial mini-series in 1978. You may check out another 1970s TV appearance on a 1976 episode of The Waltons, where Haggard sings “Nobody’s Darlin’.”
