It is on a live album. It is also sourced on wikipedia.
I am honestly interested in the version you heard. He probably said it multiple times in concert and had various variations over the course of his career.
The easiest way to find new music is to look up these artists on spotify, and then go to the 'Listeners Also Like...' tab and check out the related artists.
You can also go to rateyourmusic.com and look up the artist. It will show you what genres that artist is in, then you can look at the webpages for those genres and it will show you the top rated albums in those genres. Like this. The artist's page will also show you a list of RYM playlists featuring that artist.
Here's a freebie for you, because everyone likes George Strait. Neotraditional country like this is very accessible for most listeners.
> And he writes his own music which is a lot more than most can say these days
FYI he writes Thomas Rhett's music (crash and burn) and a whole host of songs that have been recorded by mainstream top 40 country acts.
Check out his credits on all music
Finding a downloadable mp3 for this song is a pain but if you want country/southern rock thats gonna be good to help with adrenaline than here ya go dude.
Whiskey Myers- Dogwood
Thats one of the best tracks I've heard from any band in a long time regardless of genre and they got a ton of stuff that goes pretty hard.
He's on Amazon Unlimited, which if you have Prime is 7.99/month. I subscribed and it's been well worth it, pretty much anything i want is on it.
If you're outside the US I'm not sure the above would still apply. I believe streaming rules are a bit different depending on locations.
Alternatively, if you're looking to pick up an album I'd recommend this one: Garth Brooks - Ultimate Hits
34 songs for $7.
Found this album on Amazon. Might be a song or two you might like.

Love Dale Watson! Another Texas act I love is Robbie White and the Tejas Gringos. "I Have A Ball" and "Evil" are fun. Reverbnation I'm on mobile so sorry if my link doesn't work!!
94.3FM WCKA if you use tunein. Out of northeast Alabama
The first time I ever heard a Marty Robbins song was on this station. Years ago and I still listen to this station. And I'm a huge Marty fan too lol
Late nights they play some pretty great bluegrass too; a lot of newer stuff.
Here is a website that will name a song if you hum the tune. It doesn't always have results, but I have had some success in the past. Try using it and humming more of the song, if you can remember more.

Generally called country western. El Paso is on this great album. Another great C/W album here.
FWIW, there was also this album, recorded at Texas Stadium in 2004. I mean, I know it's not a complete GS live album, but it has some great performances; to my knowledge that is the only time Alan Jackson and George Strait have ever performed "Designated Drinker" live together.
Haha they are very much the same color :p
I’ve heard more people having the same issue, you can also listen to the preview on amazon.
Thanks for showing interest!
39 here. I grew up in Texas (and still live here), where it was once said by a certain Texas country singer that you get a copy of George's greatest hits cd when you get your driver's license. I was always a fan, but it ramped up in earnest my senior year in high school, about the time the first box set came out. As I put it elsewhere, I was pretty naive musically once upon a time, as I remember thinking that he was not far from hanging it up back then, as he had been at it for 15 years at the time. I was thinking that the box set was his swan song. I honestly never would have guessed that some of his greatest artistic and commercial achievements were ahead of him, including several more multi-week No. 1 singles, a couple of debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, and that very box set becoming the second-biggest-selling box set of all time in any genre of music.
A fair amount of people would probably tell you he was better in the '80s, but I just don't know how that could be, because he was in-fucking-credible when I saw him. And he's still making great music even now. Radio just doesn't see fit to play it anymore, and that's their failing, not his.
