  • Is it you again outside,
    Just banging on the front door?
    You say you had enough,
    Now you're coming' back for more,
    But that's alright.
    I said that that's alright.
    I may not want to admit it,
    I'm just a fool for your stockings I believe.
    Now I don't mind when you send money
    And bring your girlfriends with you,
    But how could one be so thoughtless to try
    And handle less than two?
    But that's alright.
    I said that that's alright, baby.
    I may not want to admit it,
    I'm just a fool for your stockings I believe.
    Now I'm tellin' everybody
    It seems too good to be true:
    Sweet things can always get sweeter.
    I know mine did, how about you?
    Yes, it's alright.
    I said, yes it is, that's alright.
    I may not want to admit it,
    I'm just a fool for your stockings I believe.

I have heard it from some of the best local bands I've grown up listening to live , and they've always played with pride while playing ZZ top, Dusty would be proud.

Think about what he’s saying...I may not want to admit it, I’m just a fool for your stockings I believe. He knows very well that box is the mainest attraction. Another song they do Give it Up. He says “ you got to give it up baby and tell me where it’s at”. Tell him where it’s at...... lmao. And yes chicks crawl all over them.

Saw this tour for my first ZZ Top concert in '80 and the boys cracked off six tunes without a break to start the show. RIP Dusty and if the fates allow, I will see a Top show in a fifth decade here next year.

      I saw them perform for the first time in the 1980 tour done in support of this album. They followed The Outlaws, cracking off six tunes without a pause to begin their show. I have seen them four times since, and look forward to any tour in the 20's, so as to make it a fifth decade in which I have witnessed The Top. If only they would add this to their setlist, which has been pretty consistent from '05 to '17 to '18. Worth the ticket cost, regardless.
