Little David and My dad were good friends... So I grew up with Little David Wilkins... When we moved back to South Georgia he would come and play in my Dad's Club... He would always play a song just for me in the middle of his shows when he knew I was headed out to go to bed...
I remember Little David playing at the 120 club in Parsons, Tennessee way back in the 60's. Don't believe for a minute that he would steal anyone's song. Watched him many, many nites at the 120 and also Jabo's down on the Tennessee river with his group called the FalPabsts (for Fall City beer and Pabst Blue Ribbon). Played some pretty rough joints before he had anything going in Nashville....good man and good music....
well i dont have written proof of this all i know is the story of how he wrote the song and his sons and wife were there when he wrote it .he was playing it at a few clubs and next thing it was on the radio and in one recording you can hear my father in laws voice singing it they did change a couple of words from the original its sux how small town singers and song writers get taken advantage of ..
this song was stolen from my father in law who wrote it for a church going lady who always requested a closer walk with thee due to playing in clubs he wrot butter beans and it was stolen in a club in pasadena tx from him and become a hit
Hey Guy! How are you. Saw a comment so came to visit. Still think this is a great song! Did you change your name? Going to check out some of your music. Great awesome post! :)
@10ecboy Are you trying to be sarcastic?......In case u don't have XM...OR don't seem to know much about it. Stupid... I didn't say XM sells cds. Do u know they merged with SIRIUS? That's when everything changed...the music changed..and they didn't play little David Wilkins butter beans anymore.
Thank you for posting this GREAT country song. I've not heard it for many, many years. This brings back some great childhood memories. Absolutely Awesome!!
If anyone out there knows where this cd can be purchased would you please post it here!!! would love to have this cd...butter beans..love it..it's so funny...the music is great country music..Something you don't hear much of any more.
@crackerjacks46 Thanks.....but I found it local....right here in my home town. and I saw him perform...and sing it on RFDTV. Sooo now I own the cd...and can play it as often as I like.
