King of Country Releases ‘Weight of the Badge’ To Honor Law Enforcement

George Straight, the King of Country Music, has released a new song honoring law enforcement. The song is called “The Weight of the Badge.”

In typical Strait fashion, the song relies on a traditional county sound to tell the story of a police officer who followed in the footsteps of his father, going into the line of duty for 15 years despite the pain of leaving his family behind each day. Accompanied by the plucking of an acoustic guitar, gentle piano and mournful fiddle, Strait paints a picture of the unwavering strength of people who walk a dangerous line that’s “razor fine.”
