The Fabulous Thunderbirds Lyrics
My babe, my babe, my babe, my babe
She's comin' back home, yeah my babe
She's comin' back home to me, you'll see
My baby's comin' back, she's comin' back home to me
My babe
She's got big blue eyes and long black hair
My babe, my babe
She's got big blue eyes and long black hair
My babe, my babe
My babe
Oh, when she walks down the street
All the birdies go tweet-tweet-tweet, my babe
Oh, when she walks down the street
All the birdies go tweet-tweet-tweet, my babe
She got a short fat fanny, anythi-ing you need
My babe
My babe, my babe, my babe, my babe
She's comin' back home, yeah my babe
She's comin' back home to me, you'll see
She got a short fat fanny, anythi-ing you need
My babe, my babe
My babe, my babe, my babe

The band's original line-up included guitarist Jimmie Vaughan, the older brother of the influential blues guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan, and got popular in Texas' underground rock scene. After performing for several years in the Austin, Texas area, the guys earned a recording contract with Chrysalis Records and later signed to Arista. The first two albums, released in 1979 and 1980 (with Keith Ferguson on bass and Mike Buck on drums), did not initially sell well but are now regarded as classic blues rock recordings.
Their style has mixed Texas blues with the harmonica-laced swamp blues sounds of the likes of Slim Harpo and Lazy Lester, both of whom the T-Birds have covered. Their third album, 1981's 'Butt Rockin'', took the band closer to classic rhythm and blues while featuring added piano and brass section sounds played by additional musicians. The band broke into the mainstream in 1986 with their album 'Tuff Enuff'. The single of the same name was featured in the Kirk Douglas and Burt Lancaster film 'Tough Guys' alongside their follow-up single, which they titled "Wrap It Up". A lively, powerful tune, "Tuff Enuff" has been played frequently over the years on many rock n roll stations. The band's music was also played in John Cusack's 1987 movie 'Hot Pursuit'.
The Fabulous Thunderbirds' next album, titled 'Hot Number', fell off the charts quickly and alienated many of the bands' long-time fans due to its slick, pop-oriented sound. The band then began a long series of line-up changes and obscure, yet somewhat improved, albums throughout the 90s. Drummer Mike Buck left the band in 1980, and guitarist Jimmie Vaughan left in 1990. More recently, the group has had line-up made up of original member Kim Wilson alongside guitarist/vocals Nick Curran, guitarist Kirk Flecther, Jimi Bott on drums, Ronnie James Weber on bass, and former Canned Heat member Gene Taylor on keyboards.
