Give me stars and bars and collard greens, sweet lemonade and simple things, Stevie Ray Vaughn and Lynyrd Skynyrd, Texas brisket and beans for dinner. Deep fried okra, and cornbread, Black Diamond melons on a flatbed, don’t be stupid, but if you start, we’ll just say, “well bless your heart.” Always fixin’ to go do something, usually fishing, or maybe hunting, running ‘round our stomping grounds, never know what can be found. Jack and coke or Coors Light Beer copper still, dripping out clear, fried catfish on Saturday, in the barn for a roll in the hay. George Strait sings out The Chair, while we enjoy fresh country air, sitting on the truck tailgate, holding her hand and feeling great.
