Other songs with this same album cover below are also found on this album.

The song can be found on the album "Lead On".

All My Exes Live In Texas hails from the 1986 album Ocean Front Property.

The song topped the country charts in both Canada and the US.

Amarillo By Morning was written by Terry Stafford and Paul Frasier and they recored it in 1973 and had a top 30 hit. This song was actually a B-side to a song called "Say Has Anybody Seen My Gypsy Rose", which was the A-Side when Staffed released the single in June of 73. By October, they realized Amarillo By Morning was getting more airplay, so they re-released the single and flipped sides, putting Amarillo By Morning on the A-Side. 

George Strait recorded the song in 1982 for his album "Strait From The Heart" and released the single in 1983, scoring a #4 hit on the country charts in the US and hit #1 in Canada.

Chris Ledoux also covered the song before George Strait back in 1975. 

Blame It On Mexico was one of four songs recorded at the very beginning of George Strait's career, even before he had a recording contract way back in 1981. It was Feb, and George entered the Waxwork Recording Studio in Berry Hill Tennessee.

Unwound, Blame It On Mexico, Perfect Mind and Nobody In His Right Mind Would Have Left Her were recorded. Blame It On Mexico was recorded later in June of 1981.

Blue Clear Sky was the title of the album by the same name which came out back in the spring of 1996.  The single from the album went to #1 on the country charts and the album itself won several industry awards as the best country album from 1996.

If the title seems backwards, it is because that title came from Forrest Gump. Even George asked Bob DiPiero, who co-wrote the song, about this odd title. But in the end they kept it as is instead of changing it to Clear Blue Sky.

Carrying Your Love With Me was the title of the 17th album released by George Strait in Apr of 1997.

There was a music video also for this song.

Desperately was written by Texan Bruce Robison, brother of Charlie Robison.

George Strait put this number on his 2003 album Honkytonkville, and the song peaked at #6 in 2004 on the US Country charts.
