Robert Earl Keen's song about Corpus Christi has been covered by others but the definitive version for me, is Johnny Rodriguez' version. The studio version came out on his Hightone cd You Can Say That Again produced by the great Roy Dea (Gary Stewart).
That was my favorite version until I saw this youtube post of Johnny and band kicking it for real at somebody's birthday party.
I saw Johnny and Tom T Hall at one of those all night Telethon shows at Memorial Coliseum back in the day. More recently when I caught Johnny Bush at a bar on SPID. Johnny R showed up and jammed.. He's still doing it.
