"I love the song Legs. It's so nice when you meet an ambulatory woman." (Mo Rocca)
"The song was actually written about one of the ZZ Top guys young daughters, but when she went from crawling to walking. It's actually touching. She got legs. She knows how to use them and soon she'll grow up and leave me. Actually it's like Cats In The Cradle." (Modern Humorist)
