Andy Griffith also covered Midnight Special with the Darling family on his show. He replaced the line "Or the sheriff'll grab you" with "Cause Deputy Fife will arrest you."
  7:29pm
Betsy:

Ha ha! Happy to oblige. :)
  7:32pm
Hegemony Jones:

There's a part of central Texas where everything is named after Lyndon or "lady bird". Never figured out if there was a connection with this song but in my loco mind they are joined...
  7:32pm
Betsy:

Wow, cool jim! Love that Darlins stuff. And I love Deputy Fife!
  7:35pm
Listener:

Lady Bird Johnson was the nickname of first lady of the US from 1963-69. The Sinatra/Hazelton song was put out during that time. It's up to your interpretation if there's a connection.
  7:37pm
Betsy:

Hey Listener, I assumed it was about her too, I guess! Who knows...
  7:39pm
Ike:

Hey folks! Bobby Bare Sr. is great.

  7:44pm
Corey:

We also interviewed Roni Stoneman, she scared me a little.
  7:45pm
Betsy:

  7:45pm

  7:45pm
Jim:

  7:55pm
Ike:

@BG: Irwin, is that you? In some "socialist" countries like the UK, they figure it out for you! Someone (probably a Brit) joked that it's weird to them that if Americans don't figure out a bunch of math problems once a year, they end up in jail. :) Not all "big gov" is alike and there are always improvements needed.... (Sorry for the tangent, Betsy. He baited me.)
  7:56pm
Big Gov:

Seriously, Ike, we LUVVV you! Back to work on those tax forms, now. Love hurts sometimes <3
