Let's go ahead and get Gary P.
Nunn to get up here and round this whole band out here.
Fun, fun, fun.
Back in the Ben Gonzo, we were in Luchenbach in about 1974.
We were going to do an album down there with the Chickens.
While we were making this album, the deal was we went down there because we always had fun and
somebody said, well what are you going to do?
I said, I don't know, we'll just be there for a couple weeks
and we'll record it all and I bet we come away with an album.
The guy said, you didn't come here to make an album, you came here to drink beer, didn't you?
I said, a little bit of both, we'll see what happens.
But one day sitting under the tree, Gary P.
just came back from a trip, right?
That's right, I'd been over in London with Michael Murphy and
Had a good time?
I had about two extra weeks on my hand there, there was nothing else to do, so I made up a song.
We were sitting under the trees there and we said, we got any new songs or anything?
And you just kind of sitting around there and said, yeah, well let's play it.
I didn't like it much at the time, but now I love it.

[G] I promise that I would meet on the [C] third floor.
In the whole dang lot, the only friend I've got is [G] a smoke and a cheap guitar.
My [Em] mind keeps a rolling, [D#] my heart keeps long to [D] be home in the Luke and Bach bar.
