After performing for several years in the Austin, Texas blues scene, the band won a recording contract with Takoma/Chrysalis Records, and later on signed with Epic Records. In 2011, they signed with Severn Records.[1] Their first two albums, released in 1979 and 1980 with Kim Wilson's lead vocals and harp, Jimmie Vaughan as lead guitarist, Keith Ferguson on bass guitar and Mike Buck on drums, initially sold poorly, but are now regarded as significant blues recordings.

Verse 1: B I would walk ten miles on my hands and knees. B Ain't no doubt a-bout it, ba-by, it's you I aim to please. B I'd wrestle with a li-on and a griz-zly bear. B It's my life ba-by but, I don't care.

Verse 2: B For you, baby, I would, swim the sea. B Noth-in' I'd do for you that's too tough for me. B I'd put out a burnin' building with a shov-el and dirt, B And not e-ven wor-ry a-bout get-ting hurt.
(Repeat Chorus)
Guitar Solo 1: | D | DEB | DEB |
B I would work twenty four hours, seven days a week, B Just so I can come home and kiss your cheek. B I love you in the morn-in' and I'll love you at noon. B I love you in the night, take you, to the moon.
(Repeat Chorus)
B I'd lay in a pile of burning money, that I've earn-ed. B And not even worry about, get-tin' burn-ed. B I'd climb the Empire State, ' fight Mu-hammad Ali. B Just to have you ba-by, close to me.
