4. "Two Skinny Kids"....Mark Knopfler

I remember in an interview how Mark Knopfler said the Everly Brothers were his huge influence.

"Two Skinny Kids"....lyrics

The Everly Brothers are back in town my friend
Will they ever be, they may never be back again
First time around
They all loved their sound
They're back in town my friend
Their daddy took them to the county fair
Especially to see them from Tennessee
They were there (They ... out?)
No money for the gate
He took them to the fence and he said to wait
He took them to the county fair
They saw two skinny kids with dusty shoes
Peeking through the fence, at the instruments, begging you
They'll die just to meet with you
Chet, you know they sing good too
Two skinny kids with dusty shoes
Gibson made them Everly guitars
Black as ebony

((a guitar part?)..in ivory?)

They make the stars
Songs from Dan and Lesley (??) (two names!?)
And a little Bo Diddley
With them Everly guitars
Look where all the years have gone
Singing harmony, you were usually Phil and I was Don
That's how we used to play
Or was it rather the other way?
Look where all the years have gone
