We played this at my Brother-in-law's funeral. At 41 years old he lost his battle with cancer. He was always kind, joking, never one to complain. It fit him perfectly!
HEY! We are Canadian... and we absolutely love George..AND Americans~make sure you don't group us all together... We love our southern neighbors..and when we come there to spend our money in your economy we have a damn good time trust me. We love visiting there..and love having Americans visit here. Just an FYI for you :)
My cousin recently lost her battle with cancer, and way too young, too. When she got sick this song kind of became her anthem; she always had an optimistic outlook to things, and she'd quote it frequently, "I ain't here for a long time, I'm here for a good time." She was such a lively, spirited person who could make anyone smile and she would give the shirt off her back to help someone in need. I always think of her when I hear this song. Here's to you, Janine! Fly high.
Shaletail it's 3 year from your comment and one of my very good friends just lost her battle with brain cancer she was 24 years young and the most beautiful girl I had ever met rest easy haley!! I miss you so much beautiful
I'm so sorry for your lost .George Strait will also join our sentiments because his music is our soul .I'm sure she hears his music ,but most of all she feels your love . God Bless you .
This is what I love about George's music. you can have 60 year old fans, and 16 year old fans. I'm 16 and George helped me fall in love with country music.

I lost my precious son Jan 1 2021 .He would always say I'm not here for a long time I am here for a good time. Today I celebrate his heavenly Birthday he was born on Nov 7 and would have been 57 years old today. I love and miss you son .
I must add this cd to my collection. Been a "King" George fan since "unwound" came out . Last of the true Country singers......no fuss ...no catchy songs just the heart and soul of country.

Yeah, new music from King George and it is great. A fun uptempo song, "I'm not here for a long time, I'm here for a good time." I'm hoping he has both. Can't wait for his new album. Love him as always.
George Strait is the one and only who got me addicted to country music! Can't say enough about what a great performer he is. Was lucky to see him live about 10 years ago in concert. He's the greatest.

@George strait hi George, this is Melissa from new Hampshire, replying to your comment, my dad John is 94, soon to be 95 in September, and loves watching you on TH-cam!
LOVE THIS SONG!!!! This has to be my favorite by him. I am so going to tell my mom to get me his CD. Got to love country music. Nothing more country then George Strait.
Anyone else notice lately his songs have been about not being around much longer? Kinda makes you wonder what he knows and we don't. Either way, alive or in death, George Strait is a legend and one of the greatest country music artist to ever walk and will always be remembered for that. He is one of the reasons why we still enjoy country music today, he was a huge impact on a lot of current artist. God bless'em! Long live the King!
Why are you people arguing so much about this Canadian - American stuff. Why don´t you just shut up and listen to KING GEORGE and his totaly awesome song!
Good advice from the King of County Music. Pick up the pieces and move on. We have a number of days on this old earth and we should take those days and enjoy them.

I have loved this man and his music for 38 years nobody like him
You should give Huey Lewis a try since Strait basically stole the melody and chorus from him.
I was 23 years old the first time I heard George Strait... I'm 60 and he's taken me through my life!!! Love you George!
Me too..I was 22 when I first heard George...fell in love with his music...My Daddy loved his music too... I'm 62 now..from: Sheree in Louisiana
Hey I'm 60 too! And absolutely agree with you. George strait is my favorite to sing along with but especially to dance to those great songs
I’m brook and I’m 12 and I grew up listening to his music
@@bennietoups1719 been listening since 1984
This is what I love about George's music. you can have 60 year old fans, and 16 year old fans. I'm 16 and George helped me fall in love with country music.
One of the best country songs I've ever heard in my life
The guitar that plays at 2:30 stirs up feelings and sends chills down my spine
Beautiful song King George Strait. My friend Yadria in college from Houston TX shared this on her story

George's formula is great. Awesome hooks and he doesn't let the song last longer than 3:30. so you have to keep playing it over and over. brilliant.
He has such Class through and through.
This was my best friend's song before he died drugs are bad kids don't do em you harm everyone around you when doing them.
My mom was talking about George the other day and I was driving home yesterday and this song came on and I instantly fell in love with it.
Thank you for wishing me a Happy 90th Birthday George.. I would like to thank All in Carrolton, KY and Seabrook, TX for your Good Times..

Another great one from King George
