Willin', from Little Feat's first album.
I been warped by the rain
Driven by the snow
I'm drunk and dirty, don't you know
And I'm still... willin'
And I was out on the road late at night
I seen my pretty Alice in every headlight
Alice, Dallas Alice...
(I just read that band leader Lowell George wrote this song while he was a member of Frank Zappa's Mothers of Invention.)
yes he did and he and bassist Roy estrada left the Mothers to form little Feat with Billy Payne and Richard Haywood and sam clayton. Estrada left and was replaced by Kenny gradney who has been in the band since the second album. Other members of the band have been Bonnie Raitt and linda Ronstadt and Emmy lou Harris. Lead singers have included Craig fuller of pure prairie league and Shaw Murphy. Paul Barre replaced Lowell after he died in 1978 of drug abuse. Paul sadly passed away a few years ago.
