Start Jamming...
Speaking about Haggard, I know you all have spent quite a bit of time on the road with Merle.
We did, yes sir.
Tell us a little bit about that and any wise words for Merle you could share with folks?
Stay off of Willie's bus.
No, I saw Merle Haggard lose part of a lung and go on stage within three to four months after his surgery
and do a 90 minute show like you've never seen.
And that's what it's all about.
These people that fly around in helicopters and planes and do it that way,
Merle's still, he's pushing 80 years old and he's still traveling up and down the road like guys used to do it in the bus
and doing 90 minute shows, even with sickness like that.
We can learn a lot from those guys, that's for sure.
Yeah, I mean he's an American icon.
He is, he is for sure.
Okay, we're going to do a Merle Haggard song since we've talked [D] about him so much
and dedicate this one to Merle.
This is one called The Farmer's Daughter.

[D]
Tonight [G] there'll be candlelight [D] and roses
in this little country chapel that's almost [E] [A] falling down.
[D] There'll be tears in this [G] old farmer's eye
[D] as I [E]
give my one possession [F#m] [A] to that city boy.
Now, [D] his hair is [G] a little longer [D] than we're used to,
but I guess I should find [F#] something good [G] to say
about this man who's one with the [D] farmer's daughter
and [A] will soon become my son-in-law [D]
today.
[Am] [G] Our mama left ten years ago [D] this December
and it [A] was hard to be a dad and mama [D]
too.
But [G]
somehow we made a home up this [D] old farmhouse.
[E]
Love was all my baby ever [A]
knew.
[D]
You know, he could be [G] the richest man [D] in Seventh County
and not be good enough [Am] to [G] take her hand.
But he said he really loved the [D] farmer's daughter
and [A] I know the farmer's daughter loves [D] the man.
