5. Prop Me Up Beside The Jukebox

joe diffie hits

Prop Me Up Beside The Jukebox is a single from the 1993 album Honky Tonk Attitude.

The song was a #3 in the US and a #2 hit in Canada. There was a music video produced for this song also and I often wondered if they got the idea from the Weekend At Bernie's movie which came out several years earlier in 1989.

Considering that the dead man gag appeared in several Joe Diffie videos, it's probably a safe assumption that movie inspired the video format.
