I was passing through Muskogee, OK. in 1988 and decided to go downtown to find a record store. I found one and asked for Merle Haggard`s "Okie From Muskogee". The lady that she hadda few singles left. I bought it cruised around the small town. When i got on the highway i gotta ticket for doin 62mph ina 55mph zone. A slight cost overrun on that one.
