Joe's Blues Testo

You can't groove on dope
You can't groove on wine
If you're trying to catch a groove on tv, man, you're wasting your time
Well you can't do what you want, you won't get far
You know the only way to groove is on a bass guitar
You find a loose bit of rhythm
Then you lock in tight
Yes you roll on it over and over till it sounds just exactly right
You can learn to sing lead if you need to be a star
But the only way to groove is on a bass guitar
It fills out the bottom, dirty and mean
Down right greasy when the sound man's clean
The eyes in the room, they all lookin' at the star
The butts are all shakin' to the bass guitar
You could dress real cool
And wear dark shades
You might be sleek, sharp, and shiney just like a razor blade
You drive around town in a long black car
But the only way to groove is on a bass guitar
It fills out the bottom, dirty and mean
Down right grunge when the sound guy's clean
The eyes in the room, they's all lookin' at the star
The butts are all shakin' to the bass guitar
Spoken:
Play it for me one time my brother
You know me friend the good doctor Joe Murrey brought me this song
He told me it was the perfect country and western song
I told him it was not the perfect country and western song
'Cuz it didn't mention momma, it didn't mention trucks, hell, it didn't even have a country beat
It's more of a jazz thing and it's about bass
I donno what he's talking about
Check him out though, he's good
Joe, do something
Yes, you can do what you want
