Testo Ode to Mel Bay - Chet Atkins
Testo della canzone Ode to Mel Bay (Chet Atkins), tratta dall'album The Day Finger Pickers Took Over the World
Mel Bay, in your manual you taught us how to hold the pick
You gotta hold it in this manner to play them fancy licks
Now we're happily strummin' along and you oughta hear us play
And I guess we owe it all to you, thanks a lot Mel Bay
Mel Bay, Mel Bay, we just want to say
We wouldn't know what we're doin' if you hadn't shown the way
Mel Bay, Mel Bay, every time we play
We always think of you and hope you'll have a nice day
On page twenty-one you showed us how to play a G
On page twenty-two you taught us how to play a D
But Lordy oh Lordy, we never learned to play an E
'Cause someone in the outhouse stole page twenty-three
I'm goin' down to Goomer and buy a ukulele
I wanna learn to play "Parry Shelve" and "The Ukulele Lady"
I just bought your book, Mel Bay, on how to play the fiddle
I can play on that high string and those two in the middle
Mel Bay, Mel Bay, we just want to say
We wouldn't know what we're doin' if you hadn't shown the way
Mel Bay, Mel Bay, every time we play
We always think of you and hope you'll have a nice day
We're available for dances, that wouldn't be a task
And we're ready to sign autographs if anyone should ask
You know we're gettin' better than we ever thought we could
Please send us another book and we'll play twice as good
Mel Bay, Mel Bay, we just want to say
We wouldn't know what we're doin' if you hadn't shown the way
Mel Bay, Mel Bay, every time we play
We always think of you and hope you'll have a nice day
