Heres a song by Ronnie Milsap that reminds me of Daisy and Enos if the WOULD'VE actually gotten married

She Keeps The Homefires Burnin'

Crack of dawn I hit the road, set my shoulders for the heavy load

Coffee leaking through the paper sack

The foreman says I'm late again, he can't stand it when I only grin

He's got me eight hours, she's got me after that

I can't wait 'til it's quittin' time

She got something cookin' for me tonight

She keeps the homefires burning

While I'm out earning a living in a world

That's known for its pouring rain

She keeps the homefires burning

Ooh and it's her warm loving that keeps me returning again

and again

Out of gas, just my luck, four bald tires on my pickup truck

No more credit on my credit card

When I come home and hit that door

I remember what these aching arms are for

She's my one light when the world goes dark

Tomorrow it's the same old grind

But she'll be burning in my mind

She keeps the homefires burning

While I'm out earning a living in a world

That's known for its pouring rain

She keeps the homefires burning

Ooh and it's her warm loving that keeps me returning again

She keeps the homefires burning

Ooh and it's her warm loving that keeps me returning again

Homefires burning

While I'm out earning a living in a world

She keeps the homefires burning

Ooh and it's her warm loving that keeps me returning again

She keeps the homefires burning

While I'm out earning a living in a world

That's known for its pouring rain

In any case, here is the lyrics to the song.:p

I'm a charger that charges through the night,

Like an orange bolt of lightning passing everything in sight.

I'm the best pal that you boys ever had,

I'm thunder on the highway lookin' bad, bad, bad.

I'm a knight, like the kind in shining armor,

With my polished body gleaming, I'm a fighter and a charmer.

If trouble comes your way just ask for me,

My Friends all know me as the General Lee.

I'm the Gerneral Lee,

A pistol pumpin', steel belted cavalry.

I'll never let you down when you're riding with me;

Buckle up and I'll show you what I mean.

Take a look back there:

Sirens blownin', red lights flashin' everywhere;

We'll cross the fields and we'll be running free,

They'll eat dust compliments of me:

The General Lee

I'm a hero, and that's how I'll make you feel

When you're riding shotgun with me and the law is at your heels.

I'm glory bound, but when the chase is done,

I'll take off through the mountains and have fun, fun, fun.

I've got style, tearing through the curves;

Let my flag wave proudly to the people that I serve.

I'm number one, and I will always be

The pride of the South they call the General Lee.

I'm the Gerneral Lee,

A pistol pumpin', steel belted cavalry.

I'll never let you down when you're riding with me;

Buckle up and I'll show you what I mean.

Take a look back there:

Sirens blownin', red lights flashin' everywhere;

I'll jump that pond and we'll be running free,

And they'll go swimmin', compliments of me:

The General Lee

The General Lee

General Lee

I didn't know that Johnny Cash sang a song about The General but good to know, I'll have to find it. Thanks dukefan!

You are welcome Texasdaisy, when and if I can I will try to post a video of it, but you can search it by typing, "The GeneraL lee Johnny Cash utube" and you should see the song.

I tried to yesterday, but could not find the video I have , but I will keep trying.:)

Thanks for letting me know. I can't use youtube cuz i only got dial up but i'll find a way I'm glad you mentioned that song. My honey is a big Johnny Cash fan and he didn't know about this song either so now I'm going to prove it to him that there is such a song.:)

hahaha,, Am glad I was able to supply you with a secret weapon to prove hubby wrong...lol

If you have limewire, you can see if you can get it there, I got the song from there as well.:)

Verse 1

They wake up in the morning and they drink their coffee black

They love their woman one beat shy of a heart attack

On the way to work they might stop by a fishin’ hole

That’s how country boys roll

Yeah, they work, work, work, all week til the job gets done

Weekends they bar-b-que and have a cold one

They run on a big ol’ heart and a pinch of Skoal

That’s how country boys roll

Chorous

Yeah, they’re spinnin’ their wheels

Castin’ their reels

Way back on them ol’ county roads

Singin’ in bars

Soupin their cars just to see how fast they’ll go

From a ball and glove to them fallin’ in love

They do everything heart and soul

That’s how country boys roll

Verse 2

Well if you don’t know your way around

They’ll draw you a map

And if you’re broke and you ask

They’ll give you the shirt off their back

All they need is a little gas

A few dollars to fold

That’s how country boys roll

Chorous

Yeah they’re spinnin’ their wheels

Castin’ their reels

Way back on them ol’ county roads

Singin’ in bars

Soupin their cars just to see how fast they’ll go

From that ball and a glove to them fallin’ in love

They do everything heart and soul

That’s how country boys roll

Aw come on now!

Yeah they’re cryin aloud

Humble and proud

They love momma and Jesus and Jones

That’s how country boys roll

Don’t you know

(Thats How Country Boys Roll-Billy Currington, I think its a nice way to describe Bo and Luke lol)
