Let's make this birthday one to remember.

90 years old (Born on August 09, 1934)

Happy Birthday, Merle Kilgore! You're the man who penned timeless hits and kept Hank Williams Jr.'s career rolling smoother than a Nashville melody. Your knack for storytelling and your legendary sense of humor have made you the life of every party—especially when you're recounting those backstage adventures that somehow always ended with laughter (and occasionally bail money).

From crafting classics like "Ring of Fire" to expertly managing Hank Jr.'s booming career, you've proven there's nothing you can't handle—except maybe blowing out all those candles in one breath! Here's to another year filled with great music, unforgettable stories, and fewer fire hazards.
