Okay, I'm lying. Again. There really is a reason...
I was reading a blog post, and looking on The YouTube for Lacy J. Dalton's classic "I'll Be Damned, If I Go Home With A Wild Turkey Like You!"
I was going to drop a link to make a purnt.
I didn't find what I was looking for. But, I did find this one by Lacy. So, I decided to give up on being clever, and dropping that link to a song I can't find on The YouTube! My comment was not gonna be that good anyway.
Lacy's older now...just like the rest of us, I guess. (I mean all y'all...not me, of course)
But the gal looks good. I'm not sure when this was filmed. But the gal still "had it" when it was.
For y'all non-country music folks, 16th Avenue in Nashville could be considered kind of like Mecca to aspiring rednecks with a song on their lips, an acoustic slung over their shoulder, and a dream in their hearts.

Admit it, you're getting old. You don't even know what your purnt was.
ReplyDeleteUh oh, 9:48, past my bedtime!
I always loved Lacy J. Dalton.
ReplyDeleteJim, you are correct! This morning, I have NO idea what my purnt is/was.
ReplyDeleteGettin' old...
Paul, Yes Sir! Lacy always had it, and still got it.
Andy, I love this song, but I've never seen this particular version of it. As you say, the song is like a hymn to those hundreds of pickers and grinners that are drawn here annually with hopes of reaching their dreams. The video also gave me an idea for a post about Nashville's music scene(if I can find the video), so a double thank you for posting it.
ReplyDeleteLacy J will be 64 in October, according to The Wiki... or right in YrHmblScrb's demographic sweet spot. Shorter: I would.
ReplyDeleteDan, I thought you might appreciate that one.
ReplyDeleteBuck, I didn't know you'd appreciate it QUITE SO MUCH! But, I hear ya'...
