Oooh when I was a little boy
Only one or two
The first thing I did enjoy
Was a plate of Barbeque

Barbeque sliced beef and bread
Ribs and sausage and a cold Big Red
Barbeque makes old ones feel young
Barbeque makes everybody someone
If you're feelin' puny and you don't know what to do
Treat yourself to some meat eat some barbeque

Now there was a girl I knew
She treated me so mean
I offered her my Barbeque
She licked my platter clean

Barbeque sliced beef and bread
Ribs and sausage and a cold Big Red
Barbeque makes old ones feel young
Barbeque makes everybody someone
If you're feelin' puny and you don't know what to do
Treat yourself to some meat eat some barbeque

Don't give me no broccoli
Or any Swiss fondue
Baby if you want to rock me
Give me good ole barbeque

Barbeque sliced beef and bread
Ribs and sausage and a cold Big Red
Barbeque makes old ones feel young
Barbeque makes everybody someone
If you're feelin' puny and you don't know what to do
Treat yourself to some meat eat some barbeque

Don't send me to heaven
It ain't where I should go
Cause the Devil's got a charcoal pit
And a good fire down below

Barbeque sliced beef and bread
Ribs and sausage and a cold Big Red
Barbeque makes old ones feel young
Barbeque makes everybody someone
If you're feelin' puny and you don't know what to do
Treat yourself to some meat eat some barbeque

Let your feet hit the street
Find a good place to eat
Get some Barbeque

Is there something worng with the recording of this tune, or is it supposed to have that weird echo effect? Annoying either way.
I'd much rather hear WAMMO if we are going to do 'weird Texas' stuff.
Great to hear REK on radio paradise, keep it coming.
Yee Haw! Now I know what I'm having for lunch
A classic "fun" song by a most popular Texas singer/songwriter. Keep playing Robert Earl Keen. He has a diverse selection of music about "real" people in actual situations that we can all relate to.
SHOWS WHAT TOO MUCH BEER AND BB-Q WILL DO.... LIKE A FRIEND ONCE SAID "ALL MUSIC IS MUSIC TO SOMEONES EARS" NOT BAD JUST NEEDS SOMETHING "CORNY" TO ROUND IT OUT
Truly, sage wisdom
