ZZ Top

ZZ Top is an American rock band from Houston, Texas. Formed in 1969, the group consists of Billy Gibbons (guitar and vocals), Dusty Hill (bass and vocals), and Frank Beard (percussion). ZZ Top's early sound was rooted in blues but eventually grew to exhibit contemporary influences. Throughout their career they have maintained a sound based on Hill's and Beard's rhythm section support, accentuated by Gibbons' guitar and vocal style. Their lyrics often gave evidence of band's humor and thematically focus on personal experiences and sexual innuendos. more »

 Struggling with Sheik? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

I met a Sheik from Mozambique
Who led me to the Congo
He dreamed to go to Mexico
And sample a burrito

My temperature had risen again
It must have been a hundred and ten

Under the oaks I was telling some jokes
And thinkin' I had it made
Gettin' on with the folks, havin' some Coke
And coolin' off in the shade

My temperature had risen again
And it must have been a hundred and ten

I took a boat that couldn't float
To Rio de Janeiro
So with my scuba I swam to Cuba
But I'll be gone tomorrow

My temperature had risen again
It must have been a hundred and ten
