	Mixing Horror into a Country Song with a hilarious result, this is a song about a Down-home feller that can't seem to let himself kill his Sweetheart, who happens to be a Vampire! Afterall, "Other girls but with half the thrill..." Funny lyrics backed by great music, including Cajun fiddle, slide guitar and jug. Ever let your vices get your better sense? Then this song is for you.
	CD: Fool's Gold   Label: Universal Tuba Credits: KPB- vocal, guitar, jug, guiro; "Two Gun" Terry- fiddle; John Baldwin- electric guitar.
	Story Behind the Song Well, I would probably be in trouble if I were to claim that this song was based on a true story, but it certainly brings to mind one or more past relationships that I've been in. Afterall, the song is about just how far we can go to rationalize not overcoming obvious vices. The idea of a Hillbilly Vampire just amused me to no end, and no other style of music brings out my sense of humor as well as Country. I just tapped into the Hick Within and "move over Buffy!" John and Two Gun put in wonderful performances and we made sure to give my jug playing a prominent place in the mix. Lyrics XV. The Vampire I Couldn't Kill Them back home phillies can give you the willies when they grab you by the scruff of the neck, but by my red pan handle they don't hold a candle to the flame I courted from Heck. She's the Vampire I couldn't kill, the vampire I couldn't kill. Well, tan my fanny, we have a hootenanny, square dancin' at the drop of a hat. Leavin' town folk screamin', that hillbilly demon can weave that floor like a bat. Well, she sucks my blood, but I don't care. At least she don't spend half the night in front of the mirror. Other girls bite but with half the thrill as the vampire I couldn't kill. She's the vampire I couldn't kill… Well, gut my gizzard, it's cold as a blizzard when she sticks her foot 'tween my legs, but when she gives me lovin', she's hot as an oven cookin' up a mess'a cornpone and eggs. Well, she sucks my blood, and I could be wrong, but she don't henpeck me all day long. Other girls bite but with half the thrill as the vampire I couldn't kill. She's the vampire I couldn't kill… Bless my boweevil, she's outright evil when I try to drive a stake through her chest, but sleepin' the day off in her little ol' coffin, she's as cute as a chick in a nest. The way she sucks my blood could mean eternal death, but she never has no garlic breath. Other girls bite but with half the thrill as the vampire I couldn't kill. She's the vampire I couldn't kill…
