George Harvey Strait (born May 18, 1952) is an American country music artist. George Strait has marked a monumental career achievement by having more number one hit singles than any living artist, a total of 52, second only to the late Conway Twitty. Out of all the new country singers to emerge in the early '80s, George Strait stayed the closest to traditional country. Drawing from both the honky tonk and Western swing traditions, Strait didn't refashion the genres; instead, he revitalized them for a new decade. In the process, he became one of the most popular and influential singers of the decade, sparking a wave of neo-traditionalist singers from Randy Travis and Dwight Yoakam to Clint Black, Garth Brooks, and Alan Jackson.

All My Ex’s Live In Texas Lyrics

George Strait

Chorus:
All my exs live in texas
And texas is the place Id dearly love to be
But all my exs live in texas
And thats why I hang my hat in tennessee
Rosannas down in texarkana
Wanted me to push her broom
Sweet eileenõs in abilene
She forgot I hung the moon
And allisonõs in galveston
Somehow lost her sanity
And dimpleõs who now lives in temples
Got the law looking for me
Chorus
I remember that old frio river
Where I learned to swim
But it brings to mind another time
Where I wore my welcome thin
By transcendental meditation
I go there each night
But I always come back to myself
Long before daylight
All my exs live in texas
And texas is the place Id dearly love to be
But all my exs live in texas
Therefore I reside in tennessee
Some folks think Im hidin
Its been rumored that I died
But Im alive and well in tennessee
