Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jeff Healey – Look At Little Sister – Live Performance and Review

Stevie Ray Vaughan was in Toronto for a concert and during his downtime, he saw Jeff playing in a club. He was so impressed that he invited Jeff to join him on stage, where Stevie was supposed to be promoting his latest CD. Jeff showed up in casual clothes and didn’t have a business card. The reactions you see from Stevie Ray Vaughan when Jeff starts playing are genuine. Stevie did Jeff a big favor by giving him this opportunity, effectively kickstarting his career. It’s remarkable that this is one of the few clips of these legends together, and it’s a reminder of what they could have achieved together if they had more time.

Lyrics:
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey mama look at little sis
Out in the backyard….playin’ like this
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey….look at little sister
Hey hey hey hey….look at little sister

What about the neighbors….what they gonna say
Stop little sister….gettin’ carried away
Hey hey hey….look at little sister
Hey hey hey hey….look at little sister

Shakin’ like a tree….rollin’ like a log
Shakin’ and a rollin’ now….that ain’t all
Hey hey hey….look at little sister
Hey hey hey hey….look at little sister

Shakin’ like a tree….rollin’ like a log
Shakin’ and a rollin’ now….that ain’t all
Hey hey hey….look at little sister
Hey hey hey hey….look at little sister

What about the neighbors….what they gonna say
Stop little sister….gettin’ carried away
Hey hey hey….look at little sister
Hey hey hey hey….look at little sister
