I too remember Eddie Rabbit, so you can't neccessarily say it is an old man's thing (I refuse to admit I am an old man). I remember at five, I had an album called "Urban Chipmunk", and I played the donky doo out of that record.

1. Gambler

2. I Love a Rainy Night

3. Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to Be Cowboys

4. Chipmunks

5. Luckenbach, Texas (Back to the Basics of Love)

6. Lunchbox

7. On the Road Again

8. Coward of the County

9. Another Somebody Done Somebody Wron

10. Made for Each Other

11. Thank God I'm a Country Boy
