Look Like That
This is an original song once recorded in Nashville with some pretty cool Nashville cats. It's a song about how good looks don't change as we grow older; they just move inside.
It is redone here with Bill Davis of Zydecoal & Dr. Buddy Love fame on pedal steel. I did bass and vocal. The rest is Band in a Box, Reaper and Cakewalk.

Look Like That
There she sat with her legs so silky long for me to see.
A matter of fact, her eyes caught mine on her knee.
I said, "Oh, pardon me, but sweetheart, can't you see
I feel that you must look like that for me.
CH: So don't look like that and I won't look like that.
Sweet baby, don't you look like that.
You're spinnin' the brim of my hat. I can't stand to see where I'm at."
Oh lordy momma, how I like when you look like that.
Take my hand. Won't you be my breath of sunshine every day?
'Cause understand that you take my breath away.
Agree to be my wife, and, Darling, on my life
I promise when your looks won't last I'll stay.
CH: So don't look like that 'cause you won't look like that.
Sweet baby, don't you look like that.
Becasue if ever oh ever there was an Earth angel that fell from above,
oh, Pretty Woman, I must say you'll always look like that.
BR: So we drove off and got married, and while on our honeymoon
some slobbering skunk who was stinkin' drunk tried to play my baby's tune.
I told hm, "Step outside for certain suicide. You know not what you do
'cause my baby –she don't look like that for you.
CH: So don't look like that 'cause she don't look like that.
MY baby don't look like that.
I'll get me a grip o' your tie, and darken that gleem in your eye.
Oh, no. No, I guess you don't want to look like that. So look away. SOLO
So many days have passed by since we were kids in love so free.
In many ways we have changed. I must agree.
But see the light on you tonight, and still you're such a sight.
I knew that you would look like that to me.
CH: Oh, don't look like that 'cause you still look like that.
Sweet baby, please don't look like that.
You're spinn' the brim of my hat. You're still the sexiest sight, and that's that.
Oh, lordy momma, how I like ---you now, you know I do-- I like--
I still like ---I la la la la I like --how I like you always look like that.
