"REBA WHO #2
Oh here we were
On the road again
Toward scenic Cape Hattaras
And we were once again
Rolling along past the
Aged and ancient shoreline of
Salt bushes and sand dunes
We were once again
Listening to the car radio
When the radio announcer
Once again blurted out
The name of a now famous
Female country singer
And once again could not
Pronounce the name of the
Female singer named Reba
Who was singing her hit song
About a man who loved her
And took her to heavenly like heights
As though love made her feel
Like she was on top of a mountain
And in observation I unbeliveably said
I would think by now
That he would know
Just who Reba is

My experience was long ago about the time I saw our local radio station announcer in the radio tent at our Central Wisconsin State Fair interviewing a lady with a price tag on her straw hat, Minnie Pearl. The tent was empty except for the two of them. I was a teenager and eavesdropped for a bit, but uninterested, like apparently most of the morning carnival crowd, moved on.
A few years later when I was in college. The big-name singer/headliner at the fair, Roger, Dang me, Hang me (I can never remember his last name, Miller) got sick and couldn't perform. For the first time, I heard that a young sensation (teenager?), Reba McIntyre was going to be the headliner in Roger's place. I didn't see her performance but I know she didn't disappoint. She still doesn't every time she performs.
