Ladies Love Country Boys

Trace Adkins

There’s a really good, older country song called “Ladies Love Country Boys” by Trace Adkins.  These are the lyrics:

“Ladies Love Country Boys”

She grew up in the city in a little subdivision
Her daddy wore a tie, mama never fried a chicken
Ballet, straight-As, most likely to succeed
They bought her a car after graduation
Sent her down South for some higher education
Put her on the fast track to a law degree

Now shes coming home to visit
Holding the hand of a wild-eyed boy
With a farmers tan

Shes riding in the middle of his pickup truck
Blaring Charlie Daniels, yelling, Turn it up!
They raised her up a lady but theres one thing
They couldnt avoid
Ladies love country boys

You know mamas and daddies want better for their daughters
Hope theyll settle down with a doctor or a lawyer
And their uptown, ball gown, hand-me-down royalty

They never understand why their princess falls
For some camouflage britches and a southern-boy-drawl

Or why shes riding in the middle of a pickup truck
Blaring Hank Jr., yelling, Turn it up!
They raised her up a lady but theres one thing
They couldnt avoid
Ladies love country boys

You can train em, you can try to teach em
Right from wrong but its still gonna turn em on

And they go riding in the middle of a pickup truck
Blaring Lynyrd Skynyrd, yelling, Turn it up!
You can raise her up a lady but theres one thing
You just cant avoid
Ladies love country boys
They love us country boys

Upon hearing this the other day, I realized instead of blindly accepting Mr Adkins’ lyrics, I would fact check them…it’s all the rage, right?  Will country boys have the STATS?  (STATS: Smile, Transportation, Attitude, Talent, and Sex Appeal.)

Let’s start with Smile…a city guy smiling…

versus a country boy smiling.

NO CONTEST! Am I right???

Let’s talk transportation…city guy transportation:

versus country boy transportation:

hmmmmm…little scooter versus a pick-up truck? Can two even ride those scooter things?

“A” is for attitude. Compare the attitude of a city guy…

with a country man’s attitude:

I don’t know about you, but i think the merman is creepy!

When it comes to talent, a lot of city guys are limited to destructive screaming and protesting…

but country boys have impressive, life affirming talents.

Which brings us to sex appeal.  This is a typical city man…

versus a typical country man…

Not even close!

I think I can rate the above song as TRUE!

  1. Good morning y’all! It’s true! My wife travelled halfway around the world to land this country boy/redneck. I can sing country music, work with my hands, drink beers, garden, and do labor all day long…oh, and I have a pick up!

  2. Morning All…no raccoons in the trap this morning…although since the last one managed to flip the cage, hubby secured this one to the deck and the railing…the little cup with bait is overturned and empty. so now he’s wondering if the trap didn’t spring or maybe a mouse, chipmunk or squirrel got in there. we’ll have to check the trail cam to see

    1. A nipply NE good morning to you, Miss Pat! Seriously chilly for early August – only 60 right now and that’s gone up a bit. This is why I always keep sweats close at hand! The coons are spreading the word – betcha! Or maybe they’re letting the squirrels and chipmunks do their dirty work?

      I have to agree – you are 100% correct in your conclusions – cowboys just rock in all ways! No soy-boys here, thank you!

        I saw this open in my mind listening to the song and i was laughing…hubby thought I was nuts! LOL
        hubby inspected the trap and the spring mechanism is a little bent–he thinks one of the 2 we caught bent it trying to escape–they are strong!

        1. It really is a refreshing change. Supposedly a good chance for rain here this coming week-end but we’ll see. I dropped over at Oran/Lois’ house to give them a cantaloupe I couldn’t eat – didn’t even taste ANY cantaloupe flavor – and he said he would also not mow until we got some good rain.

          Most people around us have working sprinkler systems. Oran doesn’t have one and mine hasn’t been in working condition for many years now. I had to replace all of the water lines/pipes in the house and would have had to do the same with the entire sprinkler system. I put my focus on the flowers and flower beds – I am not obsessing over a lawn that managed to survive for many years with no attention whatsoever.

        1. Excerpts: “The office of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is set to make a “major” announcement Thursday morning, a spokesperson said. Taking to Twitter Wednesday night, DeSantis’ press secretary Christina Pushaw teased the impact of the announcement and said it will cause the “liberal media meltdown of the year.”

          “MAJOR announcement tomorrow morning from @GovRonDeSantis. Prepare for the liberal media meltdown of the year,” Pushaw wrote. “Everyone get some rest tonight.”

          Some people immediately began speculating if the announcement concerns the 2024 presidential election, as the Florida governor is well-liked among Republican voters. DeSantis consistently tops polls of potential 2024 Republican candidates, usually just behind former President Donald Trump. After a user mentioned DeSantis’ lead in internal polling, Pushaw responded that the announcement would be an official one, not about his campaign.

          In another tweet, Pushaw confirmed DeSantis is seeking re-election in Florida. A potential 2024 announcement would be particularly early and it would require DeSantis to be accountable to the Federal Elections Commission between now and Election Day.
          ——————
          Several other users who commented speculated that the decision could have to do with him officially joining Trump’s 2024 ticket as vice president, banning masks in Florida, a lawsuit against President Joe Biden or even succession from the US.

          Many users expressed interest in finding out whatever the announcement will ultimately be.

          DeSantis’ popularity among Republican voters across the country has surged over the past two and a half years, as he relentlessly pushed back against COVID-19 restrictions amid the coronavirus pandemic – as well as his open defiance of culture wars.”

            1. IMO, it’s too early to talk about 2024 – I think he is solely focused right now on being re-elected Governor – as Pushaw said “he is focused on FL!” Whatever it is, I think it will be primarily specific to FL but that’s just my guess.

            2. Oh, another thought – why would he announce now, while running for re-election, that he intends to quit mid-term in 2 years and go for the VP position???? Why would Floridians vote for him under those circumstances? More spitballing here…..

    Indeed, the order is so “in your face” violative that even ABC News has acknowledged the problems with putting it into effect:

    It remained unclear how this change to Medicaid coverage would avoid legal run-ins with the Hyde Amendment, a federal law that prohibits federal government dollars from being spent on abortion except in cases of rape, incest and to save the pregnant person’s life.

    As always, to justify his actions, Biden lied:

    “Emergency medical care being denied to women experiencing miscarriages, doctors uncertain about what they can do to provide for their patients, pharmacists unsure whether they can fill prescriptions that they’ve always filled before, a tragic case of rape survivors, including a 10-year-old girl forced to travel to another state for care,” Biden said before signing the order.

  9. whoa…this is despicable! PPP “loans” kept the company hubby works for afloat during the shutdown. they are a hvac/plumbing contractor with less than a handful of office personnel. their loan was “forgiven” since most went to salaries of workers. but big law firms? they never shold have qualified imo…to the tune of $16 BILLION?????

    The wasteful spending by our government is no big secret, as it has unfortunately been going on forever, but I just came across some information that brought out government wasteful spending practices to rock bottom.

    During COVID, the government came up with a not very well thought out idea: the “Paycheck Protection Program” (PPP). In principle, PPP sounded good, but in practice, it was a blatant abuse of the taxpayers’ money to the extent that it enriched the bank accounts of multimillion-dollar law firms. The government actually used the taxpayers’ hard earned money to make the already rich lawyers even richer, via a very underserved windfall for doing absolutely nothing but filling out a form.

    A mind-boggling 200,503 businesses in the so-called “Offices of Lawyers” industry received a total of $16.4 billion of taxpayers’ money in this money-squandering program. The criteria for the law firms to receive this money was minimal, almost to the point that it was a joke. The PPP was a loan designed to provide a direct incentive for “small businesses” to keep their workers on payroll.

    What the public wasn’t told was that this program was going to funnel $16.4 billion into the bank accounts of rich law firms who obviously didn’t need the money. Many high-profile law firms around the country received as much as $10 million per firm, and numerous firms received several hundreds of thousands of dollars each. The law firms who received this are shown here.

    The Paycheck Protection Program loans were very generous, as the so called “loans” could be forgiven if at least 60% of the money was used on payroll. Many of the employees’ salaries were $60,000–100,000. While it is great that the employees were able to earn such impressive salaries, a law firm that could afford to pay such high salaries should hardly have its hand out for donations from the taxpayers to help. And, as usual, the government is playing games with not being very upfront with the public, as the so called “loans” were reported by the Small Business Association (SBA) as “paid in full,” which includes both loans repaid and those “fully forgiven” from repayment under PPP guidelines.

    Washington Post highlights Walorski’s vote not to certify Biden victories after Capitol riotWalorski, an Indiana congresswoman, was killed in car accident on Wednesday

    A Donald Trump supporter, Walorski voted against impeaching the president in 2021 for his role in the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, which resulted in the deaths of one police officer and four others and injured more than 100 law enforcement officers. She also voted against confirming Democrat Joe Biden’s victories in Arizona and Pennsylvania in the 2020 presidential election,” the end of the Post’s report said.

    LOS ANGELES, CA — Singer-songwriter Demi Lovato declared herself nonbinary and adopted the use of “they/them” pronouns last year, and has made waves again this week by adopting the “she/her” pronouns that she originally had. According to sources, she made this decision when her car’s tire went flat on the I-5 freeway.

    “I heard the rumbling and thumping at 85 miles-per-hour, and the oddest sensation came over me — I became a woman again!” said the now female singer. “Then I used my feminine wiles to get some help from a manly passing motorist.”

    During an interview with Stephen Colbert recounting the incident, Lovato discussed her journey with gender identity more broadly. “I’ve considered changing my pronouns to get out of speeding tickets, settle on a restaurant, and avoid paying for dinner, but this was the first time I really felt helpless — I knew I needed a man to help me change my tire when another semi-truck driver blazed by me without a second look! So scary!”

    Some journalists have expressed frustration that Lovato left the door open for future gender changes without warning. Yahoo News contributor Julie Ghoftus tried to explain, but was tripped up: “We don’t want to be bigots and misgender them, I mean her, but it seems like she, I mean they…I’m so sorry, what is them today?”

    At publishing time, Lovato had again changed her pronouns to “Legion,” explaining “we are many.”

    1. WEST HILLS, CA — Local 15-year-old girl Anna Brown recently underwent gender reassignment surgery to become a trans boy named Andre Brown. Unfortunately, she’s now feeling let down by Demi Lovato, who inspired her to get the surgery in the first place.

      “Wait — Demi is using she/her pronouns again? Are you kidding?” said the distraught young girl after her double mastectomy. “She just went back to being a girl? She was my idol! She inspired me to get this stupid surgery in the first place! What am I supposed to do now?”

      Sources say Anna is just one of the thousands of girls in the International Demi Lovato Fan Club who were inspired by the pop star’s bravery to change their genders, pronouns, and body chemistry.

      “I’ve made a terrible mistake,” said Anna on social media, prompting hundreds of death threats from the trans community for her blatant transphobia.

      The gender clinic that performed the surgery was reached for comment, prompting them to release a statement saying: “No refunds. All sales are final.”

    YOUNTVILLE, CA — Just hours after California Governor Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency to slow the spread of the monkeypox virus, he was photographed attending an orgy at The French Laundry, the same upscale restaurant where he dined during the COVID lockdowns last year.

    “It is vital that while we have limited amounts of the monkeypox vaccine, Californians cease from orgies that will spread this dangerous disease.” Governor Newsom spoke to members of the press, with eyewitnesses reporting that he seemed agitated and hurried, saying “I really have to somewhere to be – can you peasants wrap up your complaining about the orgy shutdown so I can get going?”

    The French Laundry became a lightning rod for criticism of Governor Newsom in 2020, when he flouted his own COVID lockdown rules by dining maskless, indoors, and in close proximity to other people, though defenders have noted that he dined with important Democrats rather than ordinary peasants. Governor Newsom came under fire again when a similar photo came to light last night, capturing Newsom “engaging in egregious acts of an orgious nature” during the first night of the state’s orgy shutdown. Reporters have asked why someone was taking pictures from a low angle through the slats in the window, but the photographer has not responded to requests for comment.

    “The French Laundry only has one orgy per year,” said Newsom in his defense when he was later questioned by reporters. “Am I just not going to go to the one orgy French Laundry has every year? Come on! I’m only human!”

    At publishing time, Congresspeople breathed a sigh of relief that Newsom’s orgy took the heat off of the D.C. coke orgies reported by Madison Cawthorn.

    EXCERPT: “Authorities arrested a 37-year-old man Monday for allegedly kidnapping a 12-year-old girl who police are calling a “hero” after she escaped her kidnapper by chewing through restraints. The girl was tied to bed posts in her kidnapper’s mobile home for more than a week, according to a criminal complaint, CNN reported. She was drugged with alcohol and physically abused, the outlet continued.

    “Yesterday [at] about 8:26, our office received a call of a young juvenile female walking in the roadway,” Tallapoosa County Sheriff Jimmy Abbett said in a press conference Tuesday. “During the initial investigation, from the information that we were receiving and collected, we were able to arrest Jose Paulino Pascal Reyes,” Sheriff Abbett continued.”

    Police found two other decomposing bodies in the mobile home. The Department of Forensics Sciences is working to identify the bodies, Abbett added.”

    TALLAHASSEE — Gov. Ron DeSantis said Thursday that he was suspending Hillsborough County State Attorney Andrew Warren for not prosecuting certain crimes.

    At a news conference in front of Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office deputies, DeSantis said Warren has “put himself publicly above the law” by signing letters saying he would not enforce laws prohibiting sex changes for minors or laws limiting abortion.

    “Our government is a government of laws, not a government of men,” DeSantis said.

    Hillsborough County Sheriff Chad Chronister said they’ve had long-running frustrations with Warren for not prosecuting particular cases.

    “I continue to work with my law enforcement counterparts who privately are frustrated with the state attorney, who seems intently focused on empathy for criminals and less interested in pursuing justice for crime victims,” Chronister said Thursday.

    Thursday’s press conference included neighboring other police chiefs, including Pasco County Sheriff Chris Nocco and Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd.

    “Andrew Warren is a fraud,” former Tampa police Chief Brian Dugan said. “This is a terrible day, that the governor had to come and clean up our mess.”

      “State Attorneys have a duty to prosecute crimes as defined in Florida law, not to pick and choose which laws to enforce based on his personal agenda,” DeSantis said in a press release. “It is my duty to hold Florida’s elected officials to the highest standards for the people of Florida.”

    While watching the Kabuki of Spending Bills passing through the Uni-Party Congress, the PACT Spending Bill being the latest, keep the following in mind.

    Congress AUTHORIZES Spending via spending Bills (Laws). Within each spending Bill is a section that also describes “REPROGRAMMING” authority and oversight requirements.

    The Executive Branch (using Sock Puppet JoeBama’s pen and cellphone) OBLIGATES (spends) the money per the rules written in ALL spending Bills.

    The REPROGRAMMING rules have made the TRILLIONS of dollars of AUTHORIZED by Congress over the past 18+ months a massive slush fund for use by Sock Puppet JoeBama’s handlers.

    Money allocated to the States is sent to the State Executives as Grants with rules, including reprogramming instructions. Each State Grant is individually written. That means democrat governors can be granted wide latitude in spending, while Republican Governors can be limited.

    For the past 18+ months between 30-50% of the Spending Bills passed have been earmarked for items NOT targeted by the Bill and rest is liable for REPROGRAMMING as needed.

    Therefore we have:
    Democrat Governors able to reprogram Federal Grant money as they see fit, LEGALLY.
    JoeBama’s pen and cellphone being used to send Billions around the world.
    The JoeBama administration having a massive slush fund to impact election as only a fraction of the Congressionally AUTHORIZED Money has been Obligated.

    The Uni-Party is counting on 90%+ of normal citizens NOT understanding how money is generated for use by the people in power within the Executive Branch.
