[@lloydfelter9349]

YOU GOT THAT RIGHT ON THE NAIL'S HEAD C.J.

[@leftyoverton4347]

I’m proud fortunate and happy that I get to back her up on drums tonight at Grandpas Opry in Westmoreland TN. 👍🙏🏻

[@mrpoolplayer6379]

As I listen to Leona sing her songs, I think of all the stories our Heroes have shared with us about the heartaches, pain & love stories. They told us many times of what they did, & what not to do, but we didn't listen & still don't. Our Heroes are slowly going away & good Country Music is going away with it. Your "Cheatin' Heart" is played at every dance, every night of the week & will be heard forever., but today's # 1 won't be heard after next week, ever again..... what does that say to you...?

[@sherrymartin2486]

I love her!!! Saw an interview with merle and she was on... I've been searching her music ever since...this woman is just beautiful and a very beautiful voice...makes me mad that Merle did her wrong 😢

[@sherrymartin2486]

That just made me cry 😢 she really loved him!!!!

[@sandylou44]

His loss!His loss.

[@judyhitz4840]

"Someday When Things Are Good' is a song co-written and recorded by American country music artist Merle Haggard. It was released in March 1984 as the first single from the album His Epic Hits. "Someday When Things Are Good" was Merle Haggard's thirty-first number one country single as a solo artist. The single went to number one for one week and spent a total of thirteen weeks on the country chart.[1] Haggard wrote the song with then-wife Leona Williams.

[@jeanniecooper7390]

That's when they were married!

[@seancampbell9740]

He is the only one can sing this song. He owns it

[@emiliovaqueromartin1656]

Pure slow dance music from Texas. MERLE AND MUSIC TEXAS

[@fredwilley5931]

She's from Missouri.

[@stewartfenton7660]

@@fredwilley5931 don't think Merle was from Texas either.

[@combertrains]

Looking forward to seeing Leona live when she comes to Northern Ireland in September.

Great song Leona. Tune that steel guitar for the queen please.

You must have been tone deaf 6 years ago!

[@redirishrose9857]

The Movie about Wyatt Earp with Kevin Costner.Want hold a candle to Tombstone.

[@AaronJones-uz1fd]

She sounds rhonda vincent

[@gloriaday3419]

A nice song, with Leona's temperamental tune yet it would appeal more if the sound was a little more skippy-like!

[@gardeeoh]

So you say!!

[@dennis9962]

sorry Donny Leona co-wrote it and in fact was semo true for her wanting to leave their marriage

[@J.H.HOLLIDAY]

LEONA wrote this... but MERLE HAGGARD did it justice

[@billdobkins6836]

Sorry Donny, as far as I know Leona wrote this song. Merle had nothing to do with it.

[@jeanniecooper7390]

They were married at that time and they did write music together. To bad

[@emmaschwultz5181]

Until

[@donnylynne]

every one knows Merle wrote this song and leona wouldnt even be known without him!

[@all95621]

She had a career of her own. Merle DIDN'T make her popular

[@Mrsonnybe]

Leona wrote every word of this song.

[@Mrsonnybe]

Give me a break Donny, You know NOT of what you speak, Leona was a Country big girl before she ever met Merle.

[@billkeener]

CO-wrote!

[@stevejones3942]

I am glad someone agrees with me :)

[@stevejones3942]

I am glad she finally left "him"(Merle), that eventually led Merle to Theresa, where he finally found someone who made him happy and gave him two more beautiful children. I have never been a fan of Leona's, I think she married just to ride the coat tails of Merle. I know someone here will not like that comment, but it's my opinion,,,,, I think her son, Ron, has a much better voice and surprised he isn't more popular!

[@phyllisferguson3320]

Merle had many charted hits that were written by Leona Williams while they were married and she was riding his coattails.This song is just one of them.🤔

[@susankelbaugh5265]

You are so right!!! Thanks for saying that!!! Sure do miss him!!

[@cmusic05]

Let's face it. We wouldn't be on here listening to this if we didn't enjoy hearing Leona Williams. I had never heard of her until I was playing Merle videos and her name came up. Wow, she could put her story into words. I've listened to her songs a lot since then. The problem with stars like this, it is hard to make it work when they are both in the industry. Merry go round for sure. I think it worked with his wife Theresa because she wasn't in the business. She made him happy and you can tell by the way they looked at each other, there was so much love and respect. Having their two sweet children was certainly good for both of them.

[@markbuckles6609]

Sooooooooo????????? I've never been a fan of Steve Jones either.😎

[@sthw28]

Actually Merle married Debra Parrot after Leona and before Teresa. He was married to her for several years. Leona was well known-as a song writer before Merle and he remained friends with her as he did with Bonnie Owens.
