Has George Strait ever written a song?

Every writer writes their own songs. George does write songs, but his most successful and upper chart songs for the most part (if not all) have been written by Nashville songwriters. Dean Dillon being one of George's most successful writers has penned quite a few. Other notables would inclue Hal Neuman (songwriting 'professer' at Middle Tenn. State University), Baby Your Baby, and Pam Belford, If I Know Me. Many are not so fortunate as the past mentioned names. But in a city of over one million people it is said that 10% of us are songwriters. All of us long for success and less than 5% achieve the level of simply having a 'cut' (song recorded). Many, if not most of the 'famous' songs heard on the radio are not written by the artists, but instead by professional songwriters. So do us all a favor and hug a songwriter daily.

Blessings To All,

Douglas H. Toalston a.k.a. Toast

a Nashville songwriter, sorry, no cuts yet, just a few abrasions.

Yes, George Strait is still married to his wife Norma and they have one son George, Jr. (aka Bubba). George Straight has always been a very private person, family man and is now retired on his ranch.

***EDIT: George dropped out of college, eloped to Mexico, and married Norma. After a few weeks they returned to the states and said vows in a church. This was in December of 1971. Shortly after Strait joined the ARMY, they had a daughter named Jenifer Lynn Strait. Sadly, she was killed at the age of 13 in a car crash. They DO have a son named George JR who goes by Bubba. George is a very private person and family man however he has NOT retired and is planning on kicking off a NEW tour with Reba in 2010.

Was George Strait ever arrested after a Houston rodeo concert for drug possession?

Once, in 1969, by the same Drugs Squad sergeant who had arrested John Lennon and Yoko Ono months earlier (and allegedly planted the found drugs in both places). Harrison's then-wife Pattie answered the door and permitted the search; a block of hashish was discovered in one of Harrison's shoes in a closet, by a sniffer dog named Yogi.

Harrison was in the middle of a recording session, and left to come home. He and Pattie were taken to the police station, booked, then released. Harrison went to court days later, paid the fine, and told the media on his way out that he hoped the police "will now leave the Beatles alone".
