Biography

This sturdy American blues rock trio from Texas consists of Billy Gibbons (guitar), Dusty Hill (bass), and Frank Beard (drums). They were formed in 1970 in and around Houston from rival bands The Moving Sidewalks (Gibbons) and American Blues (Hill and Beard). Their first two albums reflected the strong blues roots and Texas humor of the band. Their third album (Tres Hombres) gained them national attention with the hit "La Grange," a signature riff tune to this day, based on John Lee Hooker's "Boogie Chillen." Their success continued unabated throughout the '70s, culminating with the year-and-a-half-long Worldwide Texas Tour.

    Lyrics
    Rumor spreadin' around, in that Texas town
    'Bout that shack outside La Grange
    And you know what I'm talkin' about
    Just let me know if you wanna go
    To that home out on the range

    Clean shirt, new shoes
    And I don't know where I am goin' to
    Silk suit, black tie
    I don't need a reason why
    They come runnin' just as fast as they can

    Lyrics
    I been up, I been down
    Take my word, my way around

    I said, "Lord, take me downtown
    I'm just lookin' for some tush"

    Lyrics
    She's got legs, she knows how to use them
    She never begs, she knows how to choose them
    She's holdin' legs, wonderin' how to feel them
    Would you get behind them if you could only find them?
    She's my baby, she's my baby
