A good country song might illuminate your pain, but a great one can make you laugh at it. From yarns to puns to old-fashioned punch lines that twist the predictable into something delightful and new, the tracks here stand as proof of not only how funny country music can be, but how directly its sense of humor stems from its humility and hardship—the laughs you laugh when you don’t have anything else. So sit back and let yourself be healed. Our editors update picks here regularly, so if you hear something you like, add it to your library.
