Clyde played electric bass
Played it with finesse and grace
Sat on the porch ain't got no shoes
Pickin' the bass and singin' the blues
Misery loves company
That ol' dog sings harmony
Tambourine tied to his tail
You can hear him howl, you can hear him wail
C'mon Clyde
Clyde played electric bass, Clyde played electric bass
Clyde played electric bass, electric bass
Electric bass
C'mon Clyde, C'mon Clyde
Pickin' the bass 'n' singin' the blues
Singin' the blues, singin' the blues, singin' the blues
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
oh, yeah
Geordie girl she got the dollar
Down the road you can hear her holler
C'mon Clyde there's things that need doin'
Clyde keeps pickin' and singin' the blues
He don't care
Clyde played electric bass
Played it with finesse and grace
Sat on the porch ain't got no shoes
Pickin' the bass and singin' the blues
C'mon Clyde, c'mon Clyde, c'mon Clyde
C'mon Clyde, c'mon Clyde, c'mon Clyde
