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.

Sing One for Sisiter by Robert Earl Keen Jr.
DA7GA7D Summer Sunday evenings around the old homeplace GDA7 I would play my guitar sister'd sing along DA7GA7D Sister's smile would always light up my daddy's face GDA7D When they'd get to dancing, they'd dance all night 'till dawn
CHORUS: GD I would sing one for sister GD Play for Papa GD Moan one for Mama A7D and I'd cry one for you
Mama liked the slow one's. She'd shuffle 'cross the floor Sister liked the fast one's Lord she could step so high I could see my Daddy dancing "til he could dance no more When I'd play a sad song you would start to cry
Chorus:
Break:
Now its just me and this old guitar I've no place to call my own Mama and Papa have passed away, sister's settled down You ran off and left me to live here all alone Now all I play is sad old songs since your leavin' town
