Lee Majors facts

Post by matthew1 »

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lee_Majors
Majors was born in Wyandotte, Michigan, a suburb of Detroit. His parents, Carl and Alice Yeary, were both killed in separate accidents. (His father died in a work accident six months prior to his birth, and his mother was killed in a car accident when he was almost eighteen months old.) At the age of two, Majors was adopted by his uncle and aunt, Harvey and Mildred Yeary, and he moved with them to Middlesboro, Kentucky.[1]
Whoa. :shock:

He sings vocals on this, and in the first season the vocal credit is given to "Colt Seavers", which is his character on the show.





This is a damn good country song, and I miss the days of watching the show in my youth.

Yes, he was. And he names her in the second line of the song, no less:


Well, I'm not the kind to kiss and tell,
But I've been seen with Farrah.
I've never been with anything less than a nine, so fine.

I've been on fire with Sally Field,
Gone fast with a girl named Bo,
But somehow they just don't end up as mine.

It's a death defyin' life I lead,
I take my chances.
I die for a livin' in the movies and TV.
But the hardest thing I ever do
Is watch my leadin' ladies
Kiss some other guy while I'm bandagin' my knee.

I might fall from a tall building,
I might roll a brand new car.
'Cause I'm the unknown stuntman that made Redford such a star.

I've never spent much time in school
But I taught ladies plenty.
It's true I hire my body out for pay, Hey Hey.

I've gotten burned over Cheryl Tiegs,
Blown up for Raquel Welch.
But when I wind up in the hay it's only hay, Hey Hey.

I might jump an open drawbridge,
Or Tarzan from a vine.
'Cause I'm the unknown stuntman that makes Eastwood look so fine.



Gone are those days. The 70s/80s were a nice blend of the over-hyper-everything™ of today with the mega super masculinity of the 1950s-60s.

I think the bruise on her right knuckle explains it.
Try to learn life's bad lessons vicariously through others.
