Little foot's song idea

folk surreal satire

Slick Fingered Boozy Bruce

I've always considered myself folk, but I play an electric guitar, so you figure it out. I'm just a guy with some cheesy equipment. Sheet music really helps me

I'm just an old man recording in a basement. The band is an AdrenaLinn effects and drum machine, some amps and some guitars

Story behind the song

Little foot sang a verse of this at Kerrville

Lyrics

Poor ole’ Bruce Bair
He never got laid
He just stayed in camp
And played, played and played.

He played “Will the Circle be Unbroken,”
 He played “Grandfather clock”
 and if this were a limerick
This verse would rock

He played “Little Red Wing”
 and “Wildwood Flower.
He played “Down in the Valley
 and “Frankie and Johnnie”

He sang about the old Dust Bowl
He played the East Coast shores
He sang about the Civil War
But no one ever wanted more.

He sang of chivalry, 
sword and blade
But no matter how much the played
He simply never got laid.


Was it his repertoire
 or was it his age
No matter the reason,
 his love life just fades

He ought to learn some new songs
He ought to get off the bong
He ought to lose 20 pounds
He ought get a round

But poor old Bruce Bair
He don’t really care
He just sits in the dark
Picking Songs from the air
