David Alan Coe was born in Akron, Ohio, on September 6, 1939. The country music star is well known for making outlaw country music.

He was influenced by Hank Williams, Kris Kristofferson, Merle Haggard, and Buck Owens.

Like Haggard before him, Coe served time in prison before setting his dreams on becoming a country music star. He headed to Nashville in 1967 and found his first big success over five years later as a songwriter. Coe wrote Tanya Tucker's controversial hit "Would You Lay with Me (In a Field of Stone)."

In 1975, Coe came into his own as a solo artist with the self-proclaimed perfect country-western song, "You Never Even Called Me By My Name." He later wrote the outlaw anthem "Willie, Waylon and Me." He experienced success as a songwriter once more with Johnny Paycheck's "Take this Job and Shove It" in 1977.
