'Best Riff Only' is a collection of The Krayolas early work that was pulled from the vinyl releases. This early archival effort is not as sonic as the 2020 release 'Savage Young Krayolas' but captures the spirit of the band and the somewhat thin sound quality of the early singles.

lyrics

WELL, I'M A ROADRUNNER. AND YOU'RE A HOUND, HOUND DOG
WELL, I'M A ROADRUNNER. AND YOU'RE A HOUND, HOUND DOG
WELL, I'M A LONG-DISTANCE LOVER
AND YOU'RE A HUNGRY CANINE WONDER

I'VE GOT A FOUR-BARREL HOLLEY A-GUZZLING THE GAS
A DOLLAR A MILE, SHE'S SUCKING LOW, LOW LEAD
FAST AS I FEED HER, SHE EATS ALL MY CASH
IT'D BE A WHOLE LOT CHEAPER TO RIDE A MOPED
BUT WHEN I PUT MY FOOT TO THE FLOOR
I GIVE MY BABY WHAT SHE'S WAITING FOR

CAUSE, I'M A ROADRUNNER. AND YOU'RE A HOUND, HOUND DOG
WELL, I'M A ROADRUNNER. AND YOU'RE A HOUND, HOUND DOG
WELL, I'M A LONG-DISTANCE LOVER
AND YOU'RE A HUNGRY CANINE WONDER

APPROACHING A HILL, SO I TAKE IT DOWN LOW
TRUCK UP AHEAD, SO I JAM IT IN LOW
FLASHIN' HIS LIGHTS, MUST BE A RADAR UP FRONT
SMOKEY'S GOT HIS RADAR ON A ROADRUNNER HUNT
I SEE AN EXIT SO I SCREECH LIKE AN OWL
WHA-HA, HONEY. YOU WON'T CATCH ME NOW

CAUSE, I'M A ROADRUNNER. AND YOU'RE A HOUND, HOUND DOG
WELL, I'M A ROADRUNNER. AND YOU'RE A HOUND, HOUND DOG
WELL, I'M A LONG-DISTANCE LOVER
AND YOU'RE A HUNGRY CANINE WONDER

AND I'M PROUD TO BE A COWBOY FROM TEXAS
WHERE WE ALWAYS MAKE A PARTY OUT OF LOVIN'
AND BILLY BEER IS STILL THE BIGGEST THING
ON THE OLD SCHOOL GROUND

YOU KNOW, THE SUN BEATIN' DOWN ON THE ROOF OF MY VAN
THE MOTOR OVERHEATING, ABOUT TO EXPLODE
SCAN A GAL LAID OUT IN THE SAND
YOU KNOW, HER HAIR BLEACHING OUT
AND HER SKIN TURNING GOLD
I CUT THE SWITCH, AND I JUMP OUT THE DOOR
WHA-HA HONEY YOU'VE BEEN WAITIN' FOR

CAUSE, I'M A ROADRUNNER AND YOU'RE A HOUND, HOUND DOG
WELL, I'M A ROADRUNNER AND YOU'RE A HOUND, HOUND DOG
WELL, I'M A LONG DISTANCE LOVER
AND YOU'RE A HUNGRY CANINE WONDER

BEEP BEEP, BEEP YEAH
BEEP BEEP, BEEP YEAH
BEEP BEEP-BEEP, BEEP YEAH
BEEP BEEP-BEEP, BEEP YEAH
BEEP BEEP-BEEP, BEEP YEAH

A little Saustex ALWAYS hits the spot... particularly loved the unreleased tracks from The Beaumonts and The Hickoids! I recommend ALL of the Saustex samplers for ANYONE intrigued by ANY of the artists included - the FIRST sampler was only the SECOND Saustex CD that I bought... and I've searched out many more to add to my music collection! - Robert Scott rdscott450

I'm currently mourning my missing the 2021 Austin Corn Lovers Fiesta. With that in mind, I was very happy to get the latest Saustex sampler! From acts that I'm not familiar with to unreleased songs by Saustex stalwarts, this has got the cure for what ails ya! - Robert Scott rdscott450
