Ring any bells? smile smile

Usually you can type in a line of lyrics from a song & Mr Google will give you that songs title.

Tried it but zero results on this occasion.

Hi Ge
It may be this one??

Artists
David Frizzel and Shelley West.

The song
"You're the reason god made Oklahoma"

The lyric is
I work "10 hours on a John Deer tractor" just thinking about you..
Not 12 hours.
This lyric is in one of the verses.

I hope this is the song you mean...

If it is you can come on and sing it for us.. biggrin biggrin

Ge,

There may be other artists that sing it.

I have a mate that was a DJ for many years and his collection of songs from different artists other than the original atists is absolutely amazing.

Hi Ge,
Can you come back and let us all know what song it is when you find it..?

I'm a country music tragic and the only song I can think of is the David Frizzell one or the same song by Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert

Thanks to all and i must say it was good to get a heap of replies.
After hearing the song "You're the reason god made Oklahoma" a few times i think that must be the one.
The tune i had in my head was that sorta tune so must have made up the last line myself as normal i could not
carry a tune on a road train. So this must be it "You're the reason god made Oklahoma". As Heather says
i am a silly old fart that was the tune all along, i no when to surrender ( She told me to ).

Thanks again one and all

Regards Ge, now i'm going to listen to this "You're the reason god made W.A" again.
See ya confuse biggrin

Hi Ge, Neil Young is a Canadian singer songwriter who has dabbled at times in straight country music during his 50 year long career. In 1984/85 he actually did a tour with a country backing band called The International Harvesters and one of the members of that group was David Frizzell's brother Lefty maybe there is a link there to the song that others have mentioned or maybe it's just a coincidence. I've got most of Neil Youngs work including his country albums and I can't say that those lyrics ring any bells.

Cheers

BB
