Over the holidays, a young man named Christian JoBlake sat down with his dad in their living room with nothing more than an acoustic guitar and a love for the country classics, and what resulted was an amazing rendition of “Amarillo By Morning”.

The boy must’ve been born at least 20 years after George Strait’s 1983 hit was first released, but he captures its essence almost perfectly. You’d be hard pressed not to absolutely fall in love with little Christian and sing along with him, as he nails it line by line:

Amarillo by morning, up from San Antone / Everything that I’ve got is just what I’ve got on / When that sun is high in that Texas sky 

Although “American Idol” is coming to an end, the boy’s got some time — who knows what the next hit reality show will be just around the bend in a few years, but we sure do hope this little singing cowboy posts some more renditions of country classics on YouTube between now and then.
