(J. J. Cale)

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
