Clyde plays electric bass
Plays it with finesse & grace
Set on 14, got no shoes
Pickin' the bass & singin' the blues

Verse 2:
Misery loves company
This old dog sings harmony
Tambourine tied to his tail
You can hear them moan, you can hear 'em wail
Verse 3:
Jodi Baines, she got a dollar
Down the road, you could hear her holler
"Get up, Clyde, we've got things do!"
The old dog is singin' the blues
Verse 4:
We don't move, we don't flinch
Clyde don't move an inch
Set on 14, got no shoes
Pickin' the bass & singin' the blues
(repeat verse 1, then fade)
