"Prop Me Up Beside the Jukebox (If I Die)" is a song written by Kerry Kurt Phillips, Howard Perdew and Rick Blaylock, and recorded by American country music singer Joe Diffie.
After the introduction, the tempo increases and the narrator elaborates on his initial point, by stating that he wishes to have his body placed against a jukebox should he die, so that he will still be in a familiar atmosphere after death.
[1] The music video for the song begins with two men smuggling a fully dressed male corpse out of a funeral home.
The night of fun ends with the now-abandoned corpse (wearing sunglasses and a party hat) propped up next to the jukebox.
Lainey Wilson, Tracy Lawrence & The Difftones covered the song on Hardy's 2024 mixtape, Hixtape: Vol.
