I'm probably one of the worst guys to mix this kind of track as I'm not big into Country (I do like me some Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, and Chet Atkins though!), but here's my attempt at this cool little track.
Cheers,
Doug
Update: Not much really changed here, I added some tape saturation to my mixbuss and added an octaver and parallel distortion to the bass during the chorus to fill them out more. The backing vocals in the chorus have a touch of pitch correction on them to tighten them up also. When listening in the car the bass seemed to work better and give more contrast between the verse and chorus sections.

Mixing is way more art and soul than science. We don’t really know what we’re doing. We do it because we love music! It’s the love of music first. Eddie Kramer
