Whoever decided to label Troy and Don unknown singers obviously does not know their musical history.

God bless you and their families always!!!

P.S. But then again, what do you expect when so many people are wanting to do away with historical statues these days?

Take a guess at #3!
We will all die. Just the facts.
As there is no godly status we can achieve.
As I said, there are no WEAK gods.
And NO omnipotent, godlike beings.
Please keep up.

Got it!...YOUR..Tulsa Time. Sounds like . For me.

What I like most about Don Williams songs are the lyrics. Most country music lyrics don't appeal to me.

Was I close with the Billy Ray song? Seems he used that (Tulsa Time) as a base for
his newer song.

Are you younger than 40? Williams's last hit was in 1989 and most of the best known ones in the 70s/early 80s, so maybe he's just before your time - I'm not sure he gets much air play anymore. He's one of my favorite country artists ever - I'm not huge on country music, I've enjoyed just a few country artists/groups over the years, and Williams was one.

#1 and #4 are really good songs, too. Try those first.

Billy Ray's tune sounds like upbeat twang-twang to me and the melody seems its whole point.
In Tulsa Time I hear a constant beat more representative of time passing used in a supportive role, not the main dish .
