Growing born in Oklahoma and serving in the United States Army, Miller embarked on a musical career in the late 1950s as a composer, writing such songs as “Billy Bayou” and “Home” for Jim Reeves and Ray Price, as well as “Invitation to the Blues.” As a result of his recording and touring career, he achieved his greatest popularity in the mid-1960s. He continued to record and perform into the 1990s, scoring his last country hit “Old Friends” with Willie Nelson in 1982, which peaked at number 20 on the country charts.

His songs continued to be covered by younger singers, with Alan Jackson’s version of “Tall, Tall Trees” and Brooks & Dunn’s cover of “Husbands and Wives” both hitting the top of the country charts in the early 1990s. The Roger Miller Museum, which is located near Miller’s hometown, is dedicated to him.
