A Case to the Bass Songtext
von The Refreshments

Time takes its toll on everything
From the wooden bridge to the flatwoundstring
The paint is cracked, the pick-ups are comin′ off
The frets are all worn down 'n′ the tuning's rough
We've been on the road so long
The call of home is growin′ strong

A case to the bass A case to the bass

Every night we′re stickin' with the drums
Playin′ with fingers picks and thumbs
Layin' down a line that swings
′N' keepin′ it up 'till the fat lady sings
Ain't no riff Ain′t no lick
That we ain′t done Ain't no trick


A case to the bass A case to the bass
A case to the bass A case to the bass

There′s a buzzin' noise that keeps on gettin′ worse
It's hummin′ like it's on the last verse
There's a growin′ crack in the neck and the knobs are gone
I′m afraid it won't make it ′till dawn
Now's the time Just can′t wait
Gotta get it Before too late

A case to the bass A case to the bass
A case to the bass A case to the bass

Let's put a sticker on "Handle with care"
Worth it well or the end is near

A case to the bass A case to the bass
A case to the bass A case to the bass
A case to the bass A case to the bass
A case to the bass A case to the bass
