The Race Is On (A Tribute to George Jones) - Cover By George Theophil

Gal Like Me

A confession from the edge of addiction that turns into a quiet plea for grace. It’s about regret, honesty, and the hope that still waits to lead you home.

South of Sober

Soldier's Pay

Verse 1

Out in West Texas where the oil rigs shine,
Billy Bob’s wranglin’ fortunes, tryin’ to make ‘em mine.
Deals in the dirt, secrets in the sand,
It’s a wild ol’ world when you’re a Landman.

Chorus

🎶 Pump it up, drill it down,
Cowboy boots in a boomtown.
Money’s flowin’, tempers too,
Singin’ them ol’ Landman Blues.
Yeehaw, strike it rich or bust,
In Sheridan’s world, it’s oil or dust! 🎶

Verse 2

Tommy Norris got a plan, but it’s half a mess,
Cami’s countin’ dollars while he’s countin’ stress.
Deals with drug lords, lawyers, and kin,
Lord knows the trouble that oil brings in.

Chorus (repeat)

🎶 Pump it up, drill it down,
Cowboy boots in a boomtown.
Money’s flowin’, tempers too,
Singin’ them ol’ Landman Blues.
Yeehaw, strike it rich or bust,
In Sheridan’s world, it’s oil or dust! 🎶

Bridge (funny twist)

Well the rigs keep spinnin’, the whiskey keeps pourin’,
Contracts signed while the roosters are snorin’.
If you’re lookin’ for love, or just a quick buck,
Better bring a lawyer and a whole lotta luck!

Final Chorus (amped up)

🎶 Pump it up, drill it down,
Cowboy boots in a boomtown.
Secrets rise like oil from the ground,
Landman’s the wildest show around!
Yeehaw, strike it rich or bust,
In Sheridan’s world, it’s oil or dust! 🎶

Right Church, Wrong Pew

Hailing from Dripping Springs, TX lead vocalist Mark Wystrach fronts Midland’s rich sound that is rounded out with lead guitarist/vocalist Jess Carson and bass player/vocalist Cameron Duddy. Rooted in tradition in both sound and style, the trio initially garnered attention playing clubs in the region. Their critically-acclaimed sophomore album LET IT ROLL (Big Machine Records) earned the No. 1 position on Billboard’s Top Country Album Sales chart upon release, receiving praise from outlets such as Rolling Stone, Variety, NPR and Entertainment Weekly among others. Wystrach, Carson and Duddy all played an integral role in writing the 14-track album with Shane McAnally and Josh Osborne which features Country Radio’s Top 40 and climbing single “Cheatin’ Songs.” The album was produced by Dann Huff, McAnally and Osborne and was a follow-up to the critically acclaimed debut album, ON THE ROCKS (Big Machine Records). Launching in 2017 with rave reviews, ON THE ROCKS was declared “the year’s best Country album” by Washington Post. Their 2x Platinum-certified chart-topping debut “Drinkin’ Problem,” which offers an intentional nod to Country music reminiscent of the 1970s and 80s, earned the band their first GRAMMY® Awards nominations for Best Country Song and Best Country Duo/Group Performance. Midland was also named New Vocal Group of the Year at the 2018 ACM Awards and is nominated for Group of the Year at the 2020 ACM Awards.
