    Story Behind the Song
    I wrote this song after seeing Kevin Costner in a store with his son. I wanted to say "Hi" to him, but I was there with a guy; So, I wrote a song about it. I went home and wrote the song on the spot, and recorded it at Vince's house, who had worked for me before. His bass line MAKES the song! The guitar and lead vocal were done in one pass each on two tracks. I went back and overdubbed the harmony/doubled vocals. There are no drums, and I had no click-track to play to, so the rhythm is uh, unique.

    Lyrics
    Kevin Costner By: Barb E. Dahl BMI
    Verse:
    If you wanna get somebody’s attention
    I think a song is a pretty good bet
    It’s surely worth a mention
    and you ain’t heard nothin’ yet!
    Chorus:
    Kevin Costner:
    Is a name I can’t forget
    Seen him on the Internet
    Does he have a private jet?
    I’m writing this song, it’s not taking me long
    For a man I’ve never met
    Verse:
    I was takin’ a lunch break
    and I walked around the corner
    I was thinkin’ about frozen yogurt
    when I walked into a store there
    I thought I saw a vision
    and I came all undone
    It looked like Kevin Costner
    buying sunglasses for his son!
    2. Kevin Costner:
    Seen him in a magazine
    In a still from FIELD OF DREAMS
    Baseball cap and tight blue jeans
    I bring you this verse, you’re hearing it first
    from a woman you’ve never seen!
    Verse:
    I was sure that he was lookin’ at me
    So I put some lipstick on
    but when I turned to smile at him
    Damn! He was gone!
    The moral of this story,
    and there really isn’t one
    if you see Kevin on the street
    Girl, don’t hold your tongue
    Cuz you might not get the chance again
    in this lifetime, anyway
    and if I could do it over
    this is what I’d say:
    Chorus:
    Kevin Costner:
    I wish he were my BODYGUARD
    I wouldn’t make his life too hard
    He can put his stadium in my yard
    and I have no doubt, even with NO WAY OUT,
    TIN CUP has upped his par
    Seen him on the Oprah show, pluggin’
    FOR LOVE OF THE GAME doncha know
    He makes me want to FANDANGO
    I saw WYATT EARP, and for what it is worth
    those movie critics blow!
    Chorus Out.
