George Strait Readies Here For A Good Time

Videos by American Songwriter

George Strait’s latest hook, “I ain’t here for a long time, I’m here for a good time,” is a bit misleading. With 57 number one-hits, 69 million records sold, and a 30 year reign as the King of Country, it’s pretty safe to say that George Strait is here for both a good time and a long time.

Strait’s 39th studio album, Here For A Good Time, will be released September 6th on MCA Nashville. However, impatient Strait fans are in luck; starting today, GeorgeStrait.com is offering an exclusive album pre-order package that includes the full-length Here For A Good Time CD, a limited edition T-Shirt, poster, and instant download of the single “Here For A Good Time.” You’ll also be entered into a sweepstakes to enter for a chance to see George Strait on tour in 2012.

Strait’s co-writers on the album include his son Bubba Strait, Dean Dillon, and Bobby Boyd.
