STEPHENVILLE, Texas (AP) - Country music singer Johnny Duncan, known for songs like "She Can Put Her Shoes Under My Bed Anytime" and "It Couldn't Have Been Any Better," died Monday of a heart attack, the director of Harrell Funeral Home in Dublin said. He was 67.
Duncan, who lived near Stephenville, had moved back to the West Texas area where he grew up after a career in Nashville, Tenn., Harrell said.
"He grew up here in a small country town and loved music," Harrell said. "His mother played herself and a lot of his cousins played with him."
His cousins became famous as well - Eddie Seals, Jimmy Seals of Seals & Croft and country singer Dan Seals.
After moving to Nashville he began writing songs and country singers like Charley Pride and Conway Twitty recorded his music. He eventually signed his first record contract and began his singing career, according to his Web site.
