A beat on the drum a drum on the beat |
|
A change of the key by pinching my seat; |
|
A beat on the drum has got to be there |
|
The rise in my voice a spring on my chair. |
|
A ring on the chord a chord on the ring |
|
A turn of the key the break of a string; |
|
A ring on the chord has got to be here |
|
The rise in my voice could sound very queer. |
|
Let's lay it down on the line |
|
Let's lay it down while it shines |
|
Let's lay it down while it moves |
|
Let's lay it all in the grooves |
|
Let's play it back with attack |
|
Let's make the window panes crack. |
|
A bend on the note a note on the bend |
|
The frog in my throat goes through to the end; |
|
A bend on the note is all very fine |
|
So let it hang on a hell of a time. |
|
A chase on the bass is all very fine |
|
There's only one place so watch for the sign. |
