Country legend Merle Haggard dies at 79 of pneumonia. Merle Haggard knew the inside of prison cells and box cars as intimately as he did some of the biggest stages in the world. He was a member of country musicâs Mount Rushmore, yet he never lost touch with his working-class beginnings.
Merle Ronald Haggard was born in 1937 near Bakersfield, California. According to the bio on his website, his father worked as a carpenter for the Santa Fe Railroad and the family lived in an old boxcar that they converted into a home. Merleâs father died when he was 9, which devastated and unmoored the boy.
