" Sing A Song About The Heartland"
Smokey Bearinski (get it?) was having an argument with good ol’ Festus.
Smokey: "Listen…..You can call me anything that you want, Festus. The fact remains….(2.) I’m the Fireman, that’s my name, and that’s ALL that I’ll answer to!"
Festus: "You knucklehead! Just because you put out a small kitchen fire over at Ma Smalley’s don’t give you no right to claim title to that there name!! Don’t ya see? And furthermore, you are sitting in the chair that I wanted!!"
Smokey, AKA "The Fireman," stomped off!!
Festus yelled after him:"(1.) That wasn’t my chair after all. Come on back and let’s discuss this using our brains!"
Doc Adams overheard this last comment.
Doc:" Did I just hear you say that you’re going to use your BRAIN?! Now THIS I want to see!!" Now it was Festus who stomped off!
Doc strolled on over to the LongBranch Saloon; Owned and managed by his friend, Kitty Russell. Kitty, still trying to recover from her broken relationship with U.S.Marshal Matt Dillon, was "nursing" a glass of whiskey.
Doc:" Kitty. Do you have a beer in this establishment for an over-worked,underpaid doctor of medicine?!" Kitty smiled.
Kitty: " How about one on the house?" Doc thought that was a fine idea. As they sat there talking, in wandered Festus.
Festus:"Well, howdy Miss Kitty? What are yer sitting with this mangy old buzzard fer?!" She laughed.
Kitty: Festus? Could you use a beer?"
Festus:"Well, that would be just fine, ‘cept I done spent my last dime at Sunday morning collection." Doc rubbed his face.
Doc:"Kitty….(3.) If you’ll buy that, I’ve got some oceanfront property in Arizona I’d like to sell you!" Kitty laughed and sat a spell with her two friends.
In a few minutes, Matt popped in as he was doing his rounds. Kitty perked up, pinched her cheeks for some color, and smiled .
Doc:" Hello, Matt. Care to join us?"
Matt:"No thanks, Doc. I’m beat. Going back to the farm for a little R &R." The farm he was referring to was owned by his new girlfriend, Sunshine MacGillicutty.
As he turned to leave, Doc and Festus started giggling. They knew what kind of R&R Matt was talking about.
Kitty, dejected that Matt didn’t want to stay, turned to her two friends….."What are YOU two fools laughing about?!" She started to pour another drink but changed her mind. She simply put the bottle to her mouth and took a long gulp!
CUT TO COMMERCIAL.
When Matt reached the farm,he paused for a minute to look at the beautiful wild flowers down by the lake.Sunshine’s favorite flowers: http://www.danish-schnapps-recipes.com/images/landscape-lake-wild-flowers.jpg
He heard Sunshine singing and playing her guitar. That always brought a smile to his face and a feeling of pride. He rode his horse down a secluded area .There sat Sunshine, lost in her music:
Sunshine: (4.) "Baby, (Quick!!) write this down! I just thought of some great lyrics to my new song." Matt got a pencil and some paper from his vest pocket.
Matt: " What’s it about?"
Sunshine: "Not totally sure, yet."
Matt:" Why not(6.) Sing a song about the Heartland?"
Sunshine pondered that thought……"Well,…hmmmm…. Let’s see." As Matt watched, Sunshine started playing her guitar and stomping up some dust as she belted out her song:
♫ " Sing a song about pigs and horses. Sing a song about a big barn bed. ( She winked at Matt.)
Sing a song about about flowers in the meadow….Down by the lake next to the shed.
Sing a song about wild geese flying . And sing as loud as you can.
Sing a song about this life that we’re living. Together hand in hand ……Hmmmmm….together in the heart~land.♫"
She then put her guitar down,smiled at Matt and ………………..
Jumped in the lake!!
Matt , as always , was taken aback!
He laughed:"(5.) That woman that I had wrapped around my finger just come unwound!! …..And I love it."
He took off his gunbelt and joined her!!
Does everyone buy General Admission? How do you know where to sit?
I belong to the George Strait Fan Club and they have said that all the tickets have been sold. You could contact them at www.georgestrait.com and they might be able to tell you if there are any general admission tickets available. I really doubt that there are any, but it is worth a try.

A song from George Strait. I think it is pretty good.Good song, bad video.
The song is based on George Strait talking to a woman. He says that if the woman were to leave him, he wouldn’t love her. That’s where the Ocean front property comes in. There is NO ocean front property in Arizona, so if she would believe he wouldn’t love her/miss her, she could have some ocean front property.
It means he still loves her, and would miss her if she left.

She’s written more songs on one album than they’ve written in their entire careers.
Have never heard anyone say that about their song writing BUT GET REAL they are so much better than Swift is who can’t sing on key to save her life, that they don’t need to write their own songs. Being able to write songs like Swifts requires very little talent. Just another attempt at irritating and annoying others.
What song would break his heart every time he sang it?
LEFTY’S GONE
"He played the fair in Dallas one year in the cold October rain
Most folks stayed home and warm but he sang just the same"
Do you think he can smile bigger than what Alan Jackson did when she sung drive?
During the ‘Should’ve Said No’ ordeal where she was positively dumped with water at I believe ACM awards 2008, Taylor mentions in an interview that she had such a face of shock because George Strait was standing up and applauding for her. So as you imagine, pretty big. 
The full version of George strait and Allan Jackson live singing murder on music row in 100% quality.
