Robert Earl Keen, Jr. (born January 11, 1956 in Houston, Texas) is an American singer-songwriter. Growing up, Keen was interested in music, sports, movies and writing. He attended Texas A&M University, enrolling in the school of journalism. Disappointed in the College Station, Texas music scene, he began playing guitar and learned to read and write music, basing his style on folk, country, blues and roots rock. In 1977 he rented a house from landlord Jack Boyett, where his neighbor was a then-unknown Lyle Lovett.

Amarillo Highway by Terry Allen
Capo at 2nd fret
G I'm a high straight in Plainview G A side bet in Idalou GC An' a fresh deck in Mobile D Yeah some call me high handed D Some call me low handed DG But I'm holdin' what I am the wheel
Chorus: G 'Cause I'm panhandlin' manhandlin' GC Post holin' hugh rollin' dust bowlin' Daddy D I ain't got no blood in my veins D I just got them four lanes DG Of hard Amarillo Highway
I don't wear no Stetson But I'm willin' to bet son That I'm as big a Texan as you are There's a girl in her bare feet Assleep on the back seat And the trunk's full of Pearl beer and Lone Star
CHORUS
Gonna hop outta bed Pop a pill in my head Bust a hub for the Golden Spread Under Blue Skies Gonna stuff my hide Behind some Power Glide Get some southern fried back in my hide
CHORUS
Refrain: As Close as I'll ever get to heaven Is makin' speed up old eighty-seven Of that hard Amarillo Highway -----------------------------------------------------------------------------| -----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
