Nat Stuckey

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nat Stuckey (born December 17, 1934, Cass County, Texas - died August 24, 1988) was an American country singer / songwriter.

Stuckey worked as a disc jockey before starting his own country band in the 1950s, which appeared regularly on the Louisiana Hayride. Stuckey hit in 1966 with "Sweet Thang", the first of many minor country radio hits, but his most famous tune, "Waitin' in the Welfare Line", is best known in the hit version recorded by Buck Owens. Stuckey recorded a string of successful albums in the late 1960s and 1970s before he fell off the scene.
