    I remember driving my dads truck after he passed and he had this in his cassette player (this was in 2009.....he had a 91 Ford F-150 Lariat, in IMMACULATE condition). I remember turning the truck on, and this song starting, and I just sat there crying. Every time I hear this song, it makes me tear up. I remember going to rodeos with my dad when I was 5-6.....he rode the bulls and I rode calves....my sister did barrel racing......Oh what I would give to have it to do all over again.

    I can't listen to this without crying. I lost my husband to cancer nearly 7 years ago. We were married for 38 years and loved one another so deeply that it nearly killed me after he was gone. I had always hoped and beleived that we'd last until our 90s and would dance on our 60th wedding anniversary to this song. But it wasn't meant to be. I love him with all my heart and always will. I'll never find another love as true as ours.

    I know this song is about rodeo, but as a retired OTR truck driver this song takes me back to those long days spent driving from one city to another, including Amarillo. The line "I aint got a dime, but what I got is mine. I aint rich but lord I'm free" fits how I felt. George is a country music legend, and deserves to go down in country music history as one of the greats like Hank Williams Jr and Sr.

      The name of that "fiddle player" is Gene Elders, and he's been with George Strait's "Ace in the Hole Band" since 1985. Trained in classical music, Gene's discipline in playing violin is obvious and he has such a casual manner of delivery. That wailing final solo very nearly steals the show :)

    The guy that originally wrote a recorded this song is from Amarillo Texas. He graduated from the same high school I did and is buried here in Amarillo. His name is Terry Stafford. He was a friend of my friends brother. George just made it even more popular and took it to the top of the charts years after it was a rock song.

    Terry Stafford's words and George Straight's delivery perfectly convey the pain, loss, and futility of the cowboy chasing his dream. By the time that fiddle comes in at the end, if your eyes aren't welling up, you weren't paying attention.

    I have had three marriages, first gave me two kids and we lost their mother and I raised them by myself. Then I met a lady and fell for her. Turned out to be hell on earth but I made it 26 years before walking away and giving her the ranch and taking only my truck, dog, and saddle. After a bad spell in East Texas I met a lady from a ranch 60 miles south of Amarillo. We both rodeoed, her as a barrel racer and break away and I roped calf's. Happy now, love each other and spend a lot of time with the horses and some cattle, swapping rodeo stories, horses we've had, people we knew and just enjoying our lives. Oh yeah, it ain't a country western band without a fiddle.
