I Met Merle Haggard Today

I spent the morning pouring concrete
I had a good hot plate of chicken for lunch
Filled the tank cause it was empty
And had a few errands to run
And I know what you're thinkin'
That sounds a little bit mundane
But just wait… I met Merle Haggard Today

My buddy called and said Haggard's in town to tape the Marty Stuart show
So meet me at the back door down in NorthStar studios
2/4/2013 4:45 was the time and date
Damn… I met Merle Haggard today

Oh what was I thinking
Should have took a picture with my phone
Or a least record him singing "Pleasure to meet you Mo"
But it was over in a second
Then he strolled down to the stage
But it's OK… 'Cause I met Merle Haggard today

But it was over in a second
Then he strolled down to the stage
But it's OK… 'Cause I met Merle Haggard today

At least I can say… I met Merle Haggard today
