Mine too, that’s my kinfolk he’s talking about. I live on Lake Texoma and I have a teenage niece whose name was recently painted on the Denison water tower. 😆
There's not much on youtube that can hold my attention for close to 9 minutes but I listen to this alot. Every line is gold and you absolutely can not be in a bad mood with this on.
First point, he mentions catching a blue cat on a drifting jug line, then mentions his cousin who coached a AA football team they were 2 time champions but they won't be this year. And he bought a .50 caliber"That's one big ol' pistol made by some badass Hebrews " If that's not America in a nutshell, I don't know what is!!
Someone uploaded this song to the internet and shared it on a UseNet group long before UA-cam was a thing. I enjoyed it as a fun novelty song and forgot all about it. Years later James was featured on World Cafe, played this song and I was hooked!
OMG, this IS Oklahoma! The highlight of going with my grandparents to see family in Arkansas and Missouri was getting to stop at the McDs and walk the tunnel across the turnpike! Back in the days when I rode in the back window of the Olds 88 or sat between my Papa's feet while he was driving. Hell, my Papa had me driving that 88 up and down the turnpike by the time I was 10. Eufaula, yep, me too. Friends in Choctaw, yep. Oklahoma anthem for sure!
I adore James’ music, but I listen to the whole package- I never focus on particular lyrics, and when a fan focuses on a particular possibly offensive issue in his comments it annoys me, because it propitiates negativity and I don’t believe that was the intention of the song
So many story lines that don’t go anywhere. Just awesome observations lol. I love this song. There could be fifty songs wrote off of every situation put forth here lol. I think that’s why I love it so much
Well, his father wrote Lonesome Dove and Terms of Endearment, so it would make sense. And this song? It's so country it literally needs translation for an urban dweller to follow. One does not learn about drifting jug lines or Bodock fence posts in the big city.
I live in Maine and we have Stephen King who is buddies with Larry McMurtry. Stephen owns several radio stations here and he is a big fan of James's music. They play alot of it and we wish everyone could hear this.
One of the great things about this version is that you get to hear McMurtry tear into the guitar. Although primarily known as a songwriter for a couple of decades now, my understanding is that in his early days he was primarily viewed as a touring guitarist, which is to say, dude's actually got some serious guitar chops.
I actually worked at the smoke shop pictured in the thumbnail had a casino room off to the side. In the late 90s. We broke up fights, got flashed in the drive through, sold crack pipes traded for gold, had a off the chain casino room. Long live north sheridan in tulsa oklahoma. Not for the faint of heart but a hell of a time to be strung out
Thanks for posting this version of one of my favorite songs. This live recording by J.M. and this band is the best. The real capper is the montage of photo's to match the lyrics as this gem of a story/song rolls along. It's so good that I played it twice in a row! Nice work, Clay!
nothin' wrong with that at all...we all got our places and it was real neighborly of larry to sing about yers! i think i'll have to find my way through to have a look
I heard this a few months ago, every morning I wake up with it playing in my head. When I leave for work it’s always the first song to play, just can’t get enough
I love this song.. bad subject sorta, but I can identify with my dads side of the family. Fam reunions.. and whiskey on the pacifier... old as dirt uncles fighting in the yard over which was worse, the Vietnam war or the Korean war.. and grandma tearing out wires in an uncles harley so he wouldnt drive it drunk. driving with a maniac we called dad with no seatbelts cause cars didnt have them. traveling all over the place sleeping in the back window. Uncle Jimmy with PTSD ( no one knew the name of what vietnam did to him.. he was just nuts but we loved him) and a trashbag full of smoke in his trunk. Lord, memories. Now Im old and would die if my kids acted like we did! HAHA!
I hope my kids, all daughters, kick it in high gear and pass everything I'd done when I was young. I only want them to live through it and realize that being young is for cutting loose.
When people say "flyover country", this is the type of epic shit they're flying over. I say this as a West Coast baby who spent a damn lot of time right between America's tits.
Lol! My Choctaw wife's uncle designed the arched restaurant at Vinita OK in the late 1950s when the Will Rogers Turnpike was built! We are from the Joplin MO area and know all of these places well! Baxter Springs! Great stuff!
😅🤣😂👍👍👍💃💃💃......Doin' my happy dance .....Thanks . Great FUN . Great day in TBILISI !.......You should come sing over here.......Georgians love all American music !
People always talk about their greatest rock n roll moments. I spent a fair amount of time in N.E. Oklahoma with my wife's family in the 70s,80s,& 90s. Lived in North Texas. Been to Baxter Springs to buy 3.2 beer at Johns Icehouse, driven by MacDonalds at the Big Cabin exit, Driven through the Eufala lake area, went past Choctaw Bingo. I liked James McMurtrys music, then I heard this on the radio before I bought the album. Life suddenly made sense. McIntyre HAD BEEN FOLLOWING ME AROUND! For years. You know the meth problem had been going on, and still does, but I have never heard any lyrics so accurately describe the whole thing of growing up like this. Now I gotta find a therapist to get me past the feeling James may STILL BE FOLLOWING ME AROUND! I admit to going up to the bookstores his father had in a town up towards Wichita Falls. But I am not following James. Life can be so confusing. By the way, saw James McMurtry with Jason Isbell at the Bomb Factory in Dallas 2019. I'm in my 60s, and I'm here to tell you they burned the place to the ground.
@Allen Kennedy i think he could have been following me around back then.... Just Sayin. My best friend lived N. of Blossom. If you know where I'm talkin about then you know.
As someone who travels from Fort Hood Texas (The "Great" Place) to Fort Leonard Wood Missouri (Fort Lost In The Woods) all of the time, I (LOVE) that McDonald's over around Big Cabin!!!....
man oh man I know what you're talkin about. I'm 58 years old but all my elders came here from Oklahoma Arkansas Texas and New Mexico where I'm living now used to be one hell of a damn place seems like everybody in this area used to talk with some type of southern accent that's long gone now too many Outsiders moved in fucked it up for the rest of us. Me and all my cousins and relatives and friends we're brought up this way. Good or bad I ain't ashamed of none of it! But that's all changed now the past 20 years sure did screw up my home but I tell you what any kind of people from the outside used to come around in the old days and tried to fuck with us we would tell them and show them what was what!!! This song pretty much tells the way it was when I was growing up and at least till my mid too late 30s. too bad them times had to go away.
Ha !! I had 2 serious girlfriends that were Choctaw beautiful ,both of them had x father'n laws that were the Sheriff of McCurtain County Ok,both of them went to FEDERAL PRISON the day they left office !! True life in this song !
I like this song! I heard it for the first time about a month and a half ago, April 2014, featured in the movie, 'Beer For My Horses'. It rocks! Thank you for sharing, clay foster!!! : )
Stumbled onto to this! Stunned by the fact that I know all these places most of the personalities! Shocked that you all made a great song out of the whole menagerie. Don’t stop now! This is great stuff! Love your style and talent!!!
Suggy1970 that cracked me UP! I love your post about how this song rings to your family.....We ALL have family like this. It is just soooooo TRUE and REAL. I am still giggling.....You made my day dearest!
This song is supposed to be about Oklahoma, but at around the 1:54 mark when it mentions "Lake Eufaula", that picture is of Lake Eufaula in Alabama - the bridge between Alabama and Georgia, we call it the Causeway. I grew up in Eufaula, AL and in Lake Eufaula. Just sayin... :D
There is a Lake Eufaula in OK, southeast of Henryetta and northeast of McAllester; I know this won't mean much. (My Dad the minister had a revival back there, when I was knee high to a grasshopper). This doesn't really matter, but just letting y'all know.
Love it!!!!! Love South Dakota, too!!!! Must’ve been here... got a snow shovel w ur name on it...😂😂😂😂😂 the cold has come quick and there’s cows still out....
Because for a song to get the airplay to chart, it needs to run about 3:30 in length. The had to chop the Beatles Hey Jude nearly in half to get radio play.
The longest & best run-on sentence in music. Period.
💯🤙🏻😎
North Rocky Mountains
UssA
McMurtry's got a helluva damn nerve, singing about my family that way.
Mine too, that’s my kinfolk he’s talking about. I live on Lake Texoma and I have a teenage niece whose name was recently painted on the Denison water tower. 😆
Your family? You mean mine!
I’m related to him
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Especially, while you're playing it and listening to it at the same time! Amen!

Same
Many mornings, to get started, we rev up the job site with this. It sort of sets a mood….
Americana...I now live amongst these people...one of the best songs ever written
I can't think of a better example of a song that captures American culture.
First point, he mentions catching a blue cat on a drifting jug line, then mentions his cousin who coached a AA football team they were 2 time champions but they won't be this year. And he bought a .50 caliber"That's one big ol' pistol made by some badass Hebrews "
If that's not America in a nutshell, I don't know what is!!
This should be our national anthem
If you’re from this part of the country it might as well be...
Yeah yeah yeah
Haha, it kinda is - at least for me.
The rest of the country wouldn't get it.
Only if yer from OK
I’ve been hooked on this song since I heard it. Each time I hear it I appreciate it that much more
Same here!
This is basically the entire southern Midwest. This was the fringes of society in the 90's
Someone uploaded this song to the internet and shared it on a UseNet group long before UA-cam was a thing. I enjoyed it as a fun novelty song and forgot all about it. Years later James was featured on World Cafe, played this song and I was hooked!
i hear more lyrics and more jokes err time
OMG, this IS Oklahoma! The highlight of going with my grandparents to see family in Arkansas and Missouri was getting to stop at the McDs and walk the tunnel across the turnpike!

Roscoe tried to miss 'em, but he didn't quite. That and the badass Hebrews line never fail to crack me up.
There's an old indian term for him. It's called "wannabe."
I adore James’ music, but I listen to the whole package- I never focus on particular lyrics, and when a fan focuses on a particular possibly offensive issue in his comments it annoys me, because it propitiates negativity and I don’t believe that was the intention of the song

I like "with a great big hard-on like a bodark fence post you can hang a five rail gate from".
The details about the SKS and the cheap steel eastern European ammo is delicious as well
Gets better every time you hear it. I have listened to this song probably 325 times.
That's so specific and relatable 😂😂
a lil sister twistin'
If this isn't an actual account of a family reunion, then this man needs to write movies for Hollywood, cuz those folks are out of ideas. #classic
We've all got folks like this. Or close.
He could write him a badass Cohen Bros. Movie for sure😀
Should be the national anthem
Well, his father wrote Lonesome Dove and Terms of Endearment, so it would make sense. And this song? It's so country it literally needs translation for an urban dweller to follow. One does not learn about drifting jug lines or Bodock fence posts in the big city.
His daddy wrote some pretty famous books that were made into movies….. it’s clear writing’s in the blood with this father and son.
When ever I go to Oklahoma , I always play this song!!! Because it makes oklahoma kinda fun......for minute.....😄😄👍🏻
As America descends into the pit this song just keeps getting better and better. James, you are truly a genius.
He didn't write so g
Dad's a great writer of novels. Sons a wordsmith also but puts music to it. What a gifted family.
Lonesome Dove is one of my favorite novels. Choctaw Bingo is one of my favorite songs.
I live in Maine and we have Stephen King who is buddies with Larry McMurtry. Stephen owns several radio stations here and he is a big fan of James's music. They play alot of it and we wish everyone could hear this.

I LOVE LARRY!! "The Last Picture Show" & "Texasville" are my favorites. But I had no idea he was James dad. Certainly talent in their genes.

Although primarily known as a songwriter for a couple of decades now, my understanding is that in his early days he was primarily viewed as a touring guitarist, which is to say, dude's actually got some serious guitar chops.
He's reworked Chuck Berry's "You can't catch me" in a masterful fashion and made it his own.
He's phenomenall !

Yep
Love it
good times! and dammit...fun for the whole family
Best comment I've seen today lol
@@Indiancreekgunsmithing right on.
Thanks for posting this version of one of my favorite songs. This live recording by J.M. and this band is the best. The real capper is the montage of photo's to match the lyrics as this gem of a story/song rolls along. It's so good that I played it twice in a row! Nice work, Clay!
This needs to be a Guy Ritchie movie, something like Snatch.
is it wrong that I know every place he's singing about. Lol. South East Oklahoma born and raised
what about that Mc Donald's?
Lived there for 14 years. Grew up in Durant before there was Choctaw bingo. Can't believe how much it's changed.
I think it's KOOL!!!
nothin' wrong with that at all...we all got our places and it was real neighborly of larry to sing about yers! i think i'll have to find my way through to have a look

Somebody needs to make a movie based on this song ;)
They made a TV show. Justified.... lol

I made the movie, I just forgot to put film in the damn camera. Most people from North Texas lived this stuff in the 80s.

I dance on stage while he did this song. I agree... National anthem. Lol❤

Yes indeed....sadly
When people say "flyover country", this is the type of epic shit they're flying over. I say this as a West Coast baby who spent a damn lot of time right between America's tits.
I live in DFW but got a little place down in Texoma. Okie and Texas proud. This song is truth.

Saw him in Nashville last weekend. Wine bar, not sure what they thought of this song.
I was glad to hear him do this one.
A fav for sure
I love this song it's literally describing my entire family and I was born and raised in oklahoma too 😂😂 guess we ain't got much to live up too
Cousin fuckin too?
This song is an 8 minute smile.
Your comment is a one second smile!
You got that right brother!
nodrip1 you’re breathtaking!
Not when you put it on repeat
That's no lie
James McMurtry is right up there lyrically with Dylan as far as I'm concerned. He writes about my part of America and nails it!
"Breaking Bad" meets "Justified".
Greatest song I’ve ever heard. Church groove with thoughtful lyrics. Brilliant
EXCELLENT imagery that makes this song even better. Thank You Clay!
Made me jones
Very true.
I liked when it was a Howard Johnson’s over the Will Rogers Turnpike.
Lol. So many memories. I now live by Toronto but grew up In Tulsa. That smoke shop is the Cherokee Smoke Shop on N. Sheridan

I’ve heard the okie state song..
Great lyrics! Song reminds me of a Chuck Berry tune from 70 years ago, You Can’t Catch Me
Chuck Berry couldn’t write anything close to this
My wife said "this song is a run on sentence."
It has punctuation!

It is a speed rap
That's almost a line from the song.
That's what the judge gave him.

Been there, done that, got the T-shirt, & tattoo... :-) McMurtry nailed it !!!
Could also be about the north Arkansas southern Missouri methamphetamine industry
OR, Winnipeg Manitoba methamphetamine industry and the zombies it creates.
This song is one of the main reasons I bought the Beer For My Horses soundtrack. Toe tappin' good tune.
Got an Army buddy from Baxter Springs. First time I heard this song way back it brought one hell of a smile to my face. Great song!
I do like that I've been everywhere he mentions. Lol.
Ah, ah....those of us from Southeastern Oklahoma understand this stream of consciousness all too well......up and down that 69/75 corridor we go!!!
I LOVE this song. James McMurtry has SO MANY awesome songs.

Wow. This was meant for Boomhauer to sing!!
I didn’t know how great he is as guitarist. When I saw him live, it was a bass guitar, drums, and him. He could crank some licks on Guild guitars.❤
Love the line, "Do some sister twisters, til the cows come home"! LOLOLOL
Loved his lyrics from day 1 , keep it coming , he's a rare treat in Canada to see live , awesome!! come back to Alberta the south of the north!!!

There is a poetic beauty to this song. Love it
Give this one a listen every year when we're rolling out to go work Rocklahoma. Hit a lot of those landmarks on the way. Won't say which ones.
Still makes whiskey cuz he still knows how
He cooks that crystal meth because the 'shine don't sell.

Love it!!!!! Love South Dakota, too!!!! Must’ve been here... got a snow shovel w ur name on it...😂😂😂😂😂 the cold has come quick and there’s cows still out....
Basically what goes through my head every time it comes up on my playlist. Feels like a song about my family, and where I grew up.
It remains me of a couple from Columbia GA exactly like this song!
Holy smokes, how is this song not a top 100, pretty damn good!
Because for a song to get the airplay to chart, it needs to run about 3:30 in length. The had to chop the Beatles Hey Jude nearly in half to get radio play.
