Pretty Little One - Steve Martin and the Steep Canyon Rangers feat. Edie Brickell 

Years ago (arrow through the head days) I saw Steve Martin do a show. His monologue had everyone in tears. Then he picked up his banjo and everyone went nuts at his talent. The world needs more Steve Martin's -especially now.

Steve Martin is a national treasure.

On the way off chance that Steve actually reads this I just want to say...Thanks for everything.

"It's a song that tells a story...."😂❤

How could you ever dislike this? It's Steve freaking martin!

The fiddle player is vibing and I am here for it

For 45yrs I thought he was just a really funny comedian.Way to go Mr.Martin!!!

This is the first time I’ve heard Steve Martin sing ~ he’s great. I’ve been impressed with his banjo playing forever...wow! The band is tight!

Steve Martin for President, because he's done everything else brilliantly!!

As a musician, I'm blown away at how good Steve Martin actually is as a musician. Wow.... Talented comedian, actor and musician. And, he's quite a good magician as well.

Amazing how it combines all of Steve Martins strengths in one song, and Edie Brickell ...is a goddess.

Only Steve Martin could pull off that "butter cup" move on a formal stage.

Nicky Sanders is one of the best fiddle players in bluegrass today. 🎵🎶🎵 🎻

I remmeber seeing Steve singing "king Tut Funky Tut" in Symphony Space in the late 70s. I was 10 years old but that performance took up permanent residence in my head. 😊😊😊

The fiddle player has ' happy feet ' . Love it

Been a fan of Steve Martin since the Smothers BROTHERS and this with Edie Brickell and the Rangers is incredible. How can someone be so multitallented is just beyond me. Of the small list of people I wish I could have met in my lifetime I put him up at the top.

Fantastic short story in a song - loved the plot twist! 😂

Steve is so talented and handsome as hell. That strong jaw, I always thought so.

Fantastic banjo player that Steve Martin is. Great addition with Edie. She has a perfect voice for this.

So talented, Steve Martin, musically, humorously, intellectually, author and actor ...

Great, again. PLEASE DO NOT retire from music.

Love the fiddle player . He's got ' happy feet ' He kinda dances when he plays .

I just found an album, The Epic Sessions. Yeah, he does have a great voice. Was listening to Edie Brickell at work. I did see her live twice. I miss the 90s. The dogs like Edie😁I work at a Veterinary Clinic as a groomer. Love from Alabama. This whole compliation is now in my Spotify list. Super impressed. I love blue grass🙋🏽‍♀️🥰🐶🪕

Steve Martin has been entertaining us since late 1960s - Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour, movies, stand-up comedy on TV and concerts, and unique bluegrass music. Now he is on tour with Martin Short. Let’s hope he can perform for another 10 years. Thanks for everything, Steve.

Steve Martin is so amazingly talented we never know what's next one of the greatest talents of our time there's no denying he's a wild and crazy guy

Oh, my gosh! What a great song and dose of humor by the great (who else?) Steve Martin!!!!❤❤❤❤😅😅😅😅😂😂😂😂😊

I was at this show. Great time.

Saw them at the Wharton Center on the campus of Michigan State University. What a fun night!

Steve Martin is amazing. Loved him on SNL back in the day. This song is a stalker song. So disturbing I couldn’t finish listening to it.

Aabsolute, stone cold brilliance! Loved this absolutely 💯

Oh my Steve. What a beautiful talent. Thank you sir! Great song…lol

I love this song. CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF HEARING IT.

That fiddler!! Steve's picking's pretty good too. The fiddle player is superb, though. It expresses the story line.

Eddie is such a cutie! Love this song, just found it. Lyrics if you want them: Saw a girl at a picture show Walked right up and said hello Seemed to me like a girl in need I'm a guy who's built for speed You and me could have some fun You pretty little one Took her riding around the town Ain't no woman ever shut me down Ever seen a truck like this? How about a little kiss? You pretty little one Pretty little one Pretty little one Took her out about a month or so She's my gal, I told her so She resisted for a bit Maybe that's the way of it You pretty little one Couple times she tried to leave Told her that don't work for me Her daddy tried to intervene Folks, I'm just a mean machine I can handle dumb old Pops What's he done but shovel rocks? I said, Baby that's enough I might've got a little rough On the pretty little one Pretty little one Pretty little one Then she called me late one night Said, It's over, let's not fight I said, Sure but one more talk Maybe just a little walk Around the block a nice goodbye You're so lovely honey-pie I went over, picked her up Got her in my pickup truck Driving slow around the town Then I put the pedal down Took her down a gravel road Stopped the truck where no one goes This is where the job gets done On the pretty little one Pretty little one Pretty little one Blackest night that I had seen In the darkness I felt mean From my boot I pulled a knife Said, I'm gonna take your life I was calm as I can get So I lit a cigarette In the flicker I could see She had a pistol trained on me That pretty little one Edie Brickell I said, Mister I'm no fool My daddy raised me country cool I think my papa knows enough Guys like you who think they're tough He read you easy as ABC That's when he gave this gun to me And ever since your truck arrived My hand's been on this.45 Steve Martin I went at her with my knife She pulled the trigger, shot me twice In the heart and in the head Took half a breath, slumped over dead She pumped another for good luck Right between my buttercups That pretty little one Pretty little one Pretty little one In the grave I'm dead and gone The little gal, she wrote this song She came over in due course Sang to me without remorse Then she whispered to the ground Edie Brickell I'll let you have another round My name is Lucy Allencott You should know that I was not Your pretty little one

what a great way to grow older with music.

The lead up to this song was also great

Awesome. I rarely go to a live music concert but I went to Steep Canyon Rangers a few years ago when they played in the round in Long Island. It was worth the drive.

Dang, this is 1 talented person. Dang tight band.

It would be cool to see them come to Conway,Mo Bluegrass festival

Damn Steve is so talented !!

The new phone book's here!! 😂😂😂

wow great Song and awsome Band

Saw Edie B. with The New Bohemians at a thousand seat hall in Davenport, Iowa. This is the first time I have seen and heard her since then.

I can't find ANY problems with this song whatsoever.

Steve Martin Talent overload

im glad hes in the music biz. seems like he more loves doing it rather than just doing as a job.

Comeuppance set to music. Thanks, Mr. Martin.

Steve's great

Always loved Steve Martin anything so I was pleasantly surprised when I saw him perform at the Grammys a few years ago. This song is so him.

I was thinking, "What a terrible story line", and then came the part where he sees the glint of her gun. Lol. Nice twist, great song.

Brilliant song!! Love the pickin of Steve and love the Steep Canyon Rangers. Edie is a great addition to the group.

The fiddle player's great!!😊

😍😅😂🤣 Thanks, Steve & Edie! 👍

C'mon help this song go to 1Million VIEWS🔥🔥🔥❤️🇲🇨

I have been watching Steve Martin since I was a child. Never disappointed!!

It's so nice to hear a song about the success of love between two people.

The first time I ever saw Steve was on The Smothers Brothers Show and he played banjo!

Hello nice video thank you 👍🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

Mr Martin is a very rounded artist... Very talented... Movies... tearther... Is anything this man can not do?

Steve Martin is a great talent, I remember the first time I saw this guy and he made me laugh like crazy I knew he could play banjo but I never saw him play anything serious till now and it was somewhat comedic but shows his true talent.

Yeah , this is great, Steve Martin is a very talented actor & musician, and singer, how about that America!?

I watch this about every couple days, what can I say

I can't stop watching this, the tension build..to release is simply brilliant.. I love it, and yes, Steve Martin CAN sing!

Wow awesome show Steve Martin

So he's got talent!

Edie Brickell is a perfect complement to this band.

Love that fiddle player !

Please just plat bluegrass all the time. Still just as fresh as the 70's

I laughed my buns off at "Atheists Have No Songs". But I was amazed to hear how talented Steve Martin is on banjo and with his voice. I will have to catch his show somewhere. Honestly, Steve Martin, you are the only Comedian who ever made me laugh out loud. Love you Steve. Keep up the great work!

haven't heard a song this entertaining since "Tom Dooley"

eeeeesh, macabre yet BRILLIANT performance!

Great American artistic ...greetings from Mar del Plata Argentina 😊😊😊🤗🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷

always nice watching your videos

I saw him do this with Martin short. Priceless

I had forgotten how much in love I was with Edie Brickell. What a great song. You make good stuff. Thanks for the years and years of entertainment.

Love how Edie looks at Steve. She's always been super pretty and those eyes are amazing. 😊

Wait, what? I been locked away too long. I had no dang idea. Wow. Just wow.

I didn't expect that; it is simply great, full of twist and style! A gem

Awesome. I've been a Steve Martin fan for 40 years (ouch!) and I never tire of seeing his work.

Hi Steve you sound great man.

simply brilliant

Anyone else think it's crazy that Steve Martin doesn't yet have 50K subscribers on YT?

I like to call this song 'Buttercup'. My grandfather played the Banjo and I too would love to play one IF I had a banjo. Love to you Mr. Martin, you amazing artist!

Thank you. Saw you at the University of Utah back in the late 70's. Saw Doc Watson that year too. You are more like him today than then. What an amazing entertainer you have been and are now.

One of my favorite original Songs. Steve Martin is a genius!

This Was the kind of music my papa love country music.

A wild and craaazy little one!

Laughed SO hard that I cried. Thank You, Mr. Martin. One and All!

From the sound of this song, it has become evident that Steve Martin will never swaaaaang again.

Wow... I was listening ever so closely to the lyrics and it’s genius. Steve Martin is amazing.

Love , love Steve Martin.

Dear Mr. Martin, I want to let you know that watching you play really inspires me to learn how to play the banjo. I love the sound of the closed-back Deerings, and have no musical talent at the moment, but what the hay!!!! I might as well do something that I enjoy before my dirt nap! Thank you. Your music is GREAT!

Steve Martin has been playing as long as he's been a comedian. It's so good to see that he's gotten a chance to shine at something else now.

I wish I would have seen this band in concert. 👍

Now that’s good country music!

From one Q tip to another, I like this song a lot!

The lyrics will crack you up!

The new phone books are in the new phone books are in!

I tried playing banjo before. It’s a beautiful instrument but my heart is set on a six string stratocaster. At the end of the day I’m just a country boy from NC not many of my kind around here a long ways from home there here in UT but this music especially by a legend like Steve Martin takes me right back home to east NC on Town Creek Rd. 🤘🏻 🖤

I was a young teen trying to learn the banjo when I first saw Steve Martin on Smothers Brothers -- that arrow through the head while he played banjo did it for me. Funny guy. Great banjo player.
