Little Feat - Strawberry Flats Lyrics

Too many ads...thumbs down

School Bus Texas Roadblock...stopping anyone that looks too weird...what a writer!

South Charlotte Services ghoul bust

@boopoopies Misheard lyrics are cooler.

Such fond memories.

Lowell George : a shining gem in the sky r.i.p.

Knocked on my friend's door in moody texas
And asked if he had a place for me
His hair was cut off and he was wearing a suit
And he said not in my house, not in my house

See y'all in hell!

I saw Little Feat with Captain Beefheart right when this album first came out. BOTH bands were amazing. Got to see Zoot Horn Rollo and Drumbo in Beefhearts band.

Damn, man. That's lucky.

Man never heard Little Feats first player or this song but uh this reminds me of some 90s alt rock band. Can't place who is aping Lowells voice. Killing me...argh

I think the black crowes were influenced by this one.

Reminds me of the 70s because, well.

90s?

*_60s, you mean. The 90s just happened._*

Great song, great band. My favorite album of 1971.

Ripped off and run out of town
Had my guitar burned when I was clownin'
Haven't slept in a bed for a week
And my shoes feel like they're part of my feet
Let me come down where I won't be a bother to no one
Let me unwind please give me a hole to recline in

Knocked on my friend's door in moody texas
And asked if he had a place for me
His hair was cut off and he was wearing a suit
And he said not in my house, not in my house
You look like you're part of a conspiracy

Now I'm six hours out on strawberry flats
Trying to get to Waco 'fore it freezes over
They're stopping every one who looks too wierd
At the ghoul bust Texas road block
Oh let me come down where I won't be a bother to no one
Let me unwind please give me a hole to recline in

Got a ride on a highway king
Made the cross road by nine fifteen
If I don't find a place to crash
Well I might as well cash it all in

If I was a no 'count gambler or a Texas fool
Or a millionaire with a suit and real short hair
Or do you even care
