I just love Kevin Fowler. Saw him at the Rodeo last year, wish he was here again this year. :-? :(
I like him as well, he puts on a good show.
He is here several times a year, there is a party that a couple local radio dj throw and he always does that, also usually at our fair and rodeo, and sometimes another festival or so. He was here last month but I did not get to go........my sons, especially the 18 year olds go see him often. Even Mom dancing on a table one night to Beer, Bait and Ammo did not scare them off :oops:

What a comprehensive list, srkmrd!! I need to get some more of those!!

This makes me LAUGH!!!!!!!!! Even if I don't know what some of it means!!! :o

Well it's 7:45 on Friday morning,
He just crawled outta bed.
He stayed too long at the Chicken again
And he's got an achin' head.
He's got an 8-o'clock at Heldenfels
His prof speaks Japanese.
Went broke on beer and Mr. Bills
Now he lives on bread and cheese.

He's a fightin' Texas Aggie and he just don't give a damn
That he's got 3 parking tickets
And he's on sco-pro again
But the bonfire's built
And Varsity's horns have been sawed right off his head,
He's a fightin' Texas Aggie
And he will be 'til he's dead.

Well it's Wednesday morning at Gollie Rollie
His sports pass in his hand
He's been waitin' three days in the blazin' sun
Just to be with his twelfth man
But after fumbles and interceptions
He takes his girlfriend's hand
But the game don't mean a thing to her
She's just there to see the band

He's a fightin' Texas Aggie and he just don't give a damn
That he's got 6 parking tickets
And he's on sco-pro again
But the bonfire's built
And Varsity's horns have been sawed right off his head,
He's a fightin' Texas Aggie
And he will be 'til he's dead.

Well he goes down to the Dixie Chicken
He's dunking his ring tonight
He's there at 6:30,
He thought it'd be early
But there ain't a table in sight
So he buys his pitcher anyway
And he drops his ring on in
Singing, "the road goes on forever
And the party never ends"!

He's a fightin' Texas Aggie and he just don't give a damn
That he's got 9 parking tickets
And he's on sco-pro again
But the bonfire's built
And Varsity's horns have been sawed right off his head,
He's a fightin' Texas Aggie
And he will be 'til he's dead.

Well it's one-o'clock
And "Goodnight Irene" is blarin' through the place
He parked about 50 blocks away
So he ain't got time to waste
When he finally makes it to his car
He stands up on his feet
He says, "Boy's lets head to Taco Cabana,
I think I need somethin' to eat."

He's a fightin' Texas Aggie and he just don't give a damn
That he's got 12 parking tickets
And he's on sco-pro again
But the bonfire's built
And Varsity's horns have been sawed right off his head,
He's a fightin' Texas Aggie
And he will be 'til he's dead.

Well he picks up a "Battalion"
Just to see what's going on
But all he finds to read about
Is what we're doin' wrong
"This school's too damn conservative!"
I guess they want us to be
Like all the hippies down in Austin
Wearin' orange and sippin' tea.

He's a fightin' Texas Aggie and he just don't give a damn
That he's got 12 parking tickets
And he's on sco-pro again
But the bonfire's built
And Varsity's horns have been sawed right off his head,
He's a fightin' Texas Aggie
And he will be...'til he's dead.
Ah-hah!

AWESOME! ..umm..I mean NIIICE! :lol: :lol: :lol:
He did it near the end of the show, then when he came back for the encore he called the bass player and the 2 guitar players from Cross Canadian Ragweed to come out and join him and he did The Road Goes On Forever.

This is one of my favs of Kevin's too. I just had to buy the 'Butterbean' t-shirt last year. :D


Butterbean
Kevin Fowler

Many times I’ve been told
That old gal has no soul
She’ll chew you up, spit you out
Leave you boy, there ain’t no doubt
All the men say she’s mean
That side of her I ain’t ever seen
A little sugar, a lot of spice
A little naughty, a little nice

She’s my little butterbean
The cutest thing you’ve ever seen
Oh my little Texas queen
She’s my little butterbean

Well I met her down in San Antone
Those local boys left her alone
They all said she was the devil’s one and only child
I don’t believe it
Not one word
There ain’t one thing I’ve ever heard
That’ll change the way I feel
That girl’s got me head over heels

She’s my little butterbean
The cutest thing you’ve ever seen
Oh my little Texas queen
She’s my little butterbean

She’s my little butterbean
The cutest thing you’ve ever seen
Oh my little Texas queen
She’s my little butterbean

My little Lonestar hootchie-coo
Well I’ve chased her to Timbuktu
She’s gone from Fort Worth to Abilene
And every roadhouse in-between
She’s as hot as cakes on a griddle
That girl goes wild when the bow hits the fiddle
She loves to swing and do-se-do
That’s why I love her so

She’s my little butterbean
The cutest thing you’ve ever seen
Oh my little Texas queen
She’s my little butterbean

I can see folks two-steppin' around to Bob Wills . . .


The stars at night, are big and bright,
deep in the heart of Texas,
The prairie sky is wide and high,
deep in the heart of Texas.
The sage in bloom is like perfume,
deep in the heart of Texas,
Reminds me of, the one I love,
deep in the heart of Texas.

The coyotes wail, along the trail,
deep in the heart of Texas,
The rabbits rush, around the brush,
deep in the heart of Texas.
The cowboys cry, "Ki-yip-pee-yi,"
deep in the heart of Texas,
The dogies bawl, and bawl and bawl,
deep in the heart of Texas.
