Wait 'till Hank Ray gets his hands on "Buck's Red, White and Blue Guitar"...the song, that is


For those about to celebrate July 4th, we salute you!  Hank Ray will be helping me out with his signature guitar style on a July 4th song I recently wrote about Buck Owens' signature red, white and blue guitar. 

Hank Ray puts a magic touch on songs, so I'm looking forward to seeing what he can do with this one as we get together in the BuckarooM this evening.  We'll also be working on a song I wrote for his movie soundtrack, so it should be an exciting evening of recording at the Buckaroom.  In the meantime, if you'd like to sing along and add the song to your July the 4th collection, hear are the lyrics and a sample of the pre-Hank-Snow edition of the song.

nothin' helps me celebrate

July the 4th as much

as Buck's red, white and blue guitar

nothin' helps me play my songs

with just that special touch

like Buck's red, white and blue guitar

 

I pledge allegiance to that guitar

and for the country it stands for

I pledge allegiance

to the stripes and stars

on Buck's red, white and blue guitar

 

let me have it for a season

let me hold it for a spell

just to know that  Buck Owens played it

makes every thing that's gone wrong

all turn out well

 nothin' helps me celebrate July the 4th as much

as Buck's red, white and blue guitar
