  • If his voice doesn't represent country music, I don't know who's does. <3

  • one of my fav songs of all time

  • youtube disgraces this song with a taylor swift ad

  • Terry Stafford and Paul Fraser both wrote this song originally, Chris ledoux did do a cover and then George strait did a cover.

  • I could have had the chance to meet him in Nashville a few years ago. I work in talk radio and our sister station had people working at the concert. I would have loved to have met him, but was afraid I would have gotten fired for asking. I never forgave myself.

  • gotta love texas boys. amarillo from san antone. and by morning. loong drive.

  • 89 people must have not made it to Amarillo By Morning

  • man i love this song 

  • If you are a fan of country music you have to be a fan of George. If you're not then I feel sorry for you. LONG LIVE THE KING OF COUNTRY!

  • Most of us who were raised cowboying or decided to rodeo lived this, the names of the towns were different

  • life is a highway is also a cover, that was originally done by Chris Ledoux

  • best country artiest along with Chris ledoux

  • This actually a cover, the original was done by Chris Ledoux.

  • @DanielEJ013 terry stafford wrote and recorded it originally

    i meen like he is an amazing guitar player and theats why i rank him high as a great country star

  • how can you not loke this song?

  • BY FAR THE GREATEST COUNTRY SONG OF ALL TIME!!

  • @t1l1m

    Its Strait not Straight

  • George Straight,

    I love your music, but your what is wrong with this country. Your a minstrel and your pay should be commensurate with any other side show. We've elevated a voice and a guitar or a face that can lie above those that speak for truth and justice. This country as a whole and those who worship you as a god deserve the coming wrath.

  • @t1l1m I think you're a little off your rocker. I don't think there's anyone that worships him. People just love his music because, for most, it takes them back to what they remember and enjoyed. What's wrong with that? Bringing joy to this dull and depressing life? I bet you're part of those Westboro Baptist freaks (which aren't even real Baptist) that are fuckered in the head, aren't you?

  • @t1l1m Its Strait Not Straight

  • I have a Niece who never heard of "King George" When he came out with his new album she got a brief education. She said I would marry him in a heart beat. I answered by saying "you and every other female on earth" Met him one time, didn't say I knew him, that was when my Mother was on the board for the HLR during the 80's and 90's. They had the Cattlemens Club down below and he made a brief appearence. This video is all about the HLR and I will treasure it always. I went 16 years in a row.

  • @MyBayouCity no one gives a fawkin sheet

  • @linemanbiermann You must, you replied. Have a great day.

  • @MyBayouCity :D ThisMade My Day

  • He was soooooo Handsome! Still is for his age.

  • Who says newbies

  • Just where in the hell is my 2:47?

  • george strait for president

    and hank williams jr or george jones for vice

  • Whoever said that kids didn't like 'old people' music? I <3 it!

  • good stuff. it don't hardly get better than this

  • 88 people dont like this? i'm thinking someone voted more than once!

  • @Buckingfury, Chris LeDouxs the kind, glad to know theres people out there who still listen to the good stuff!

  • Great song. I miss Waylon Jennings and Marty Robbins though, that was real country. Oh and can Towns Van Sandt sing me into heaven.

  • @benjavari Agreed.... this is classic country. The good days of country are gone now, unfortunately. I'll take George Jones over any of the newcomers. They're too "pop".

  • Love this

  • Fun life when you're 12 foot tall and bullet proof. Not so much once Father Time catches up with ya.

  • one of the greatest country musicans there will ever be . Got to have respect for the real country folks

  • George Strait = King of Country! :) Gotta love him!

  • ScienceBringsTruth says he's not racist and uses the N word in his comment, LMAO, idiot...

  • un saludo desde mexico d.f

  • one of the best country songs ever! love George Strait! people don't even respond to ScienceBringsTruth, if he hates country music then why is he on here? he's just a troll trying to spread hate. ignore him, not worth your time.

  • @00John316 - No our race has spread enough hate. All I am doing is spreading the TRUTH.. But some of you cant swallow it because you're too IGNORANT. You will hang a nigger on saturday, and then go to church on sunday just to damn your neighbor to hell.. I am ashamed to be part of the white race, and instead of accepting our mistakes, most of u just wonder why all the minorities hate us, well take a look at the REAL NEWS, not the bullshit life george straight lives. he was as racist as them all

  • @ScienceBringsTruth - How do you call other ppl racist when you stereotype the whole white population for being racist? That's ignorant and you're the racist. You're generalizing a group of people based on skin colour, when the truth is there are good and bad individuals from every race, because its not based on race. In most developed countries people of all races have equal rights. And thats been the work of decent people, white, and all other races. So stfu you stupid hypocrite.

  • @ScienceBringsTruth it's music, get a life. btw I'm mixed race, you assume you know ppl and you don't. I'm half black/white you moron! the only racist here is YOU! and for the record I don't hate anyone white, black, hispanic, asian, indian, or middle eastern, and have plenty of friends of all these races and can guarantee you most blacks don't hate whites. People are just people, let go of your hatred, why are you trolling country music if you hate it don't listen! PATHETIC!

  • @ScienceBringsTruth

    I'm sorry, I was being harsh as hell. It was too easy. I deleted my comments. But seriously you are out there. You are halfway between this world and some other imaginary world. You are probably schizophrenic and yes it is classified as mental retardation. ( :  I smile to tell you it will be OK. I don't want to be too condescending but the truth is the truth.

  • the world needs more singing cowboys

  • Elvis isn't a king compared to George

  • What the heck is wrong with you people ?

  • Shut up... Stop playing the blame society card. We live in a new era. Music is what makes up happy. Let it go.....  Mmmk. Thanks.

  • LOL yall are really dumb arguing over a country song and not evan making sense if you dont like country why are you evan listening to this song, typical niggers...

  • @stoneratx420 - No i am white and i hate country music.. I also hate racist fucks like you that make our race look the way we do now in history.. White people will forever be remembered as the MOST HATEFUL RACE of all time.. Unfortunately WE, are the biggest spreaders of evil IN THE WORLD.. But most whites claim they are "Christians" and follow "Jesus".. But then judge everybody elses souls to hell whenever they want.. I wish i was a nigger so i wouldnt have to be associated with a troll like u

  • @ScienceBringsTruth Country music is very pretty. I dont see how you could hate it. Its like hating your mother.

  • My mom played George Strait a lot when we were kids. Now that I'm an adult country music is definitely not my music of choice, but I still love George Strait. My mom's fiance happens to be one of the riders in this video too.

  • They don't call him the King of Country Music for nothing, but who's the Queen of Country Music? I think it's Loretta Lynn.

  • Fuck country, just a bunch of Swedish and European immigrants yodeling about their new homeland they brutally stole from the native people... White people are the biggest spreaders of HATE i have ever seen on this planet, and then its church for them on Sunday, SMH.. Ignorance must be bliss, but i would know

  • @ScienceBringsTruth are you fucking retarted? like honestly? ive seen country singers of every race and or nationality sir and your fucking comment was probably up there with some of the dumbest and most hateful shit ive ever seen on this site

  • @kisame777 -Exactly, Because I'm white... It's what my parents had taught me until i woke up and saw the world for what it really is... Wake up and smell the truth and quit wondering why the world hates us.. It isnt because we are free or good looking, those arguments are so vein, why dont they attack sweden or germany then? Because the White American is the BIGGEST SPREADER of HATE in the worlds HISTORY..

  • @ScienceBringsTruth Listen buddy, we've all been there and had that "Revelation" but we dont go around spouting bullshit at the top of our lungs.. or in this case on YT pages. And don't blame it "because your white" well you white piece of shit you are what the fuck YOU ARE cant nobody change that, don't matter your race, nationality or anything. Quit blaming the world, it don't owe you nothin... just play the cards and for gods sake grow up.

  • @imhightoo Youre the exact reason the world is the way it is.. Instead of standing up and doing whats right, you just play the cards u are dealt. That is the biggest crock of shit quote i have ever heard. You're just too stupid, ignorant and country to see that the people that are DEALING the cards, are cheating and robbing you blind.. Go ahead and start another WAR with a MINORITY and then say it is because u are defending "freedom", riiight... Youre an ignorant toad just like the rest of them

  • @ScienceBringsTruth You been reading to much Catcher in the Rye. You cant jsut complain about things and expect them to infact change. I assume you are vagely referring to the upper 1% the financial monopoly that the rich have on the poor and the corporations slowly chocking the American Dream to death. I don't start the wars but i will gladly fight in one, because we arn't fighting a minority, were fighting the poor and the sick and the unfortunate.

  • @ScienceBringsTruth But i fight for country, and for the honor of my family. And what do you mean standing up? a load of good sitting on YT comments is doing right? But no you think that an Internet petition will change the world! so how about helping the poor and the sick with the money i have but you will never give up, or your time and dignity? Truth is you don't know me, or how much ive helped people less fortunate. so how about you go piss up a rope?

  • @imhightoo -Ya u're a mindless drone fighting a mindless war, instead of having some BALLS and standing up for what is right, u support a country even when its WRONG. U dont have a brain to think for urself so u have the army do it for you. U murder, rape, and terrorize innocent people in an innocent country and then claim it was for the safety of the country. I do more with internet petitions and PUBLIC PROTESTING that you do firing a weapon at some innocent child. At least i target the enemy.

  • @ScienceBringsTruth Wow. I sure wish I could see you face to face.............

  • @BensonBMD -To do what? Talk some more shit? To profess how you're this "BIG CHRISTIAN" then bash my face in and claim its what God would have wanted? You're pathetic

  • @ScienceBringsTruth to reply to your original comment, and really, your entire incoherent string of self-righteous bullshit: You preach like you are against hatred, but you deliberately commented on a great classic song just to start a fight. You are the ignorant one here, sir. If you want to debate the war, or any wars, or your hatred of white people, start a blog, and stay there. This song is one of the best classics ever written. What, pray tell, do you listen to, btw?

  • @ScienceBringsTruth I love Country music. I dont think of Rap/Hip Hop as black hatred. Your comments are just silly. Country has a little something for everyone. I love the Western Swing style that comes out of Texas.

  • @ScienceBringsTruth So you are saying you are a racist?

  • @ScienceBringsTruth ok whoever the fuck you are, you think that all rednecks and hillbillies are those racist pieces of shit? well your way wrong. Theres only a few like that, but thats all people actually look at, the few. So why don't you just shut the hell up, and quite your bitching!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i have my first ride in the second division bullride just after x-mas. big step from junours.

    everyone at my school listens to that stupid rap music but im proud to say that i listen to george strait, chris ledoux , justin mcbride , justin moore etc.

    COWBOY UP.

  • WISH I WAS IN TEXAS

  • King George could sing the phone book and I dont know bout you but id buy it

  • Been a FAN since day one. George Is the best. No debate!

  • First time I ever danced with my wife, we danced to this song and remeber it like it was yesterday. Thank you George for all that you have meant to REAL country music. God bless the King of Country Music not only for his talent, but his class and style!

  • country cowboy music... beautiful!! :)

  • Best. Fiddle. Ever. !!!!

  • bery good

  • In 15 years, no one will remember Lady Antebellum, Zac Brown Band, or Miranda Lambert. But everyone will rember George Strait, Brooks & Dunn, Alan Jackson, and everyone that came before them, Like George Jones, Conway Twitty, and Faron Young.

  • @bobthefreak09  AMEN!

  • @bobthefreak09 them newbies don't even make country music

  • @bobthefreak09 how can i like this comment again

  • Reminds me of my rodeo days

  • This is real country music, not Toby Keith, not that stubby Kenny Chesney, George Strait does it right.

  • @Weissmenchland There is a version of this very song here on Youtube in which George Strait invites Kenny Chesney on stage to sing this song in concert. Shows alot of class to invite someone on stage to sing a signature George Strait song. Have a great day!

  • Oh George<3

    You make my heart race

  • I agree you got the reason !!!

  • I was there to watch this, thanks Mom for all the Rodeos, I had the time of my life.

  • got shit faced while rocking out to this song last night!

  • Just got on this video after seeing Colt Fords song what i call home. When i heard that i started asking myself what has country came to? I later realized that that isnt country its RAP CRAP. With their holy jeans it hurts me. I mean i was raised to look as nice as you can and respect the things that are givin to you. Holes are a given if your a cowboy they will apear in your jeans NATURALLY. My dad would beat me down if he saw me buying a pair of holy jeans. It just seems disrespectful.

  • My first trip to California 1987, this was all over the radio, especially the closer to Amarillo we got. This and U2's Joshua Tree album, heard that a thousand times on the way out there and back. 

  • @Tman28666 You know Amarillo is in Texas right?

  • Muy bueno el video.

    gran artista de este tipo de musica.

    ¡¡¡¡Me encanta!!!!!!

    Desde Santiago de Chile
