Aint Nuthin To Do In Lubbock Texas

Listen to poem:
Ain’t Nuthin To Do in Lubbock
By David J Walker

The Killer came to town 
Jerry lee Lewis and his pal
Jim Ed Brown 
Playin at the municipal coliseum
To a sell out crowd 
Payin up to 5 bucks 
Just to see ‘em playin loud
But…	that Ain’t Nuthin
Cause Asleep At The Wheel an
Jerry Jeff Walker  an The Mains Brothers,
Waylon n Willie and a lot of others
Includin Alvin Crow were still knocking em dead at
Back to back weekend shows 
At the Cotton Club 
While all the musicians in town 
went to see Stevie Ray V 
wailing on his fender
At Stubbs where Lou kept the BBQ ribs
And the cold beer comin 
Joe Ely was there being cool
playin pool 
tradin licks Jesse guitar Taylor 
And Some fool still says….
Ain’t nuthin to do in Lubbock
