Texas Style Christmas

by Joe Doyle on December 25, 2007

What a splendid day. The sun is shining and we’re encroaching upon mid-60s, family is all about and I’m about to ride the State Park where I find respite in the woods and call my family back home.

Today is a day meant for song and rejoicing, so I wanted to post a video of my favorite: Happy Holidays Y’all by Robert Earl Keen, Jr.

REK a Texas singer-songwriter who grew up in Houston and roomed at A&M with Lyle Lovett. While I couldn’t find the above song in video, I was able to find another of his songs – the prequel to Happy Holidays y’all – called Merry Christmas from the Family. His lyrics in both are great – it’s all about the common man.

Have a great celebration today, friends.
