Bilingual
I been playing root-five, for most of the night
And most of the times, well, I don't really mind
But once in a while, I get the chance to shine
Look out, baby, when the stage is mine
The good Lord knows I do the best I can
On the big, butch, bass, bull fiddle, baby, here I am
ย
I got the black horsehair on my big bass bow
Meaner than the sorrel that was under it before
Sawin' back and forth to meet the big bass drum
And pretty soon you can hear the rhythm section hum
The good Lord knows I do the best I can
On the big, butch, bass, bull fiddle, baby, here I am
ย
I gotta buy the extra seat, when I ride the airplane
Or the womens and the childrens and the pilot complain
It sure don't fit in the overhead bin
Basically leaving it behind would be a sin
The good Lord knows I do the best I can
On the big, butch, bass, bull fiddle, baby, here I am
Here I am
ย
Leaving it behind might save a little space
I ain't no slouch on the electrical bass
But something kinda happens when the F-holes sing
With the snapping and the popping of the flat wound strings
The good Lord knows I do the best I can
On the big, butch, bass, bull fiddle, baby, here I am
ย
I been playing root-five for most of the night
And most of the times, well, I don't really mind
But once in a while, I get the chance to shine
And look out, baby, when the stage is mine
The good Lord knows I do the best I can
On the big, butch, bass, bull fiddle, baby, here I am
ย
You know, the good Lord knows I do the best I can
On the big, butch, bass, bull fiddle, baby, here I am
