"Hillbilly Shoes" is a song recorded by American country music duo Montgomery Gentry. It was released in February 1999 as their debut single and the lead-off single to their debut album Tattoos & Scars. It peaked at number 13 in the United States, and number 7 in Canada. It was written by Bobby Taylor, Mike Geiger and Woody Mullis. The song features Troy Gentry singing lead but in some parts there's Eddie Montgomery singing alone as lead vocals.
Deborah Evans Price, of Billboard magazine reviewed the song favorably, calling it a "high-energy brand of traditional country blended with loads of outlaw attitude." She goes and says that the song has an "absolutely infectious guitar riff, sassy sawing fiddles, and Gentry's high-octane lead vocal."[1]
