Richard Frost
by: Jimmy Buffett

Richard Frost left Alabama heading west to find his fame
Only got to Oklahoma and that's where he changed his name
Now he plays a little tavern all the drunks say he's a star
Hollywood forgot his number now he's stuck in Kelly's Bar

But is he happy my friend
or does he pretend?
Is every song a routine chore?
Well he every decide
to go and not hide
behind his fear and Kelly's backstage door

Richard Frost draws 90 people and on weekends lines grow long
Singing loud and laughing with them the crowd reacts to every song
Bigger worlds (?) can't help but make you more aware of what you see
Afraid of what's beyond just eyesight keeps the worlds in harmony

Just to clarify, that American Storytellers CD is just another in a long line of cheaply repackaged CDs that draw from the original albums Down To Earth and High Cumberland Jubilee. Even though "Richard Frost" is refered to as a "bonus track" on the Varese Records re-release of Down To Earth I distinctly remember hearing it on an 8-track tape that had been transfered from the original album eons ago.
