How Bad Bluegrass Boys Behave
Internet Collaboration with Wyman Griffith
Bad Bluegrass boys are a breed of their own
Play for nearly nothin' no where they won't go
Cuz they love them strings, might just make it big
Listen while I sing 'Bout the fire at the gig
Son, They were hot all right, shoulda heard those chops
Sawin' on those strings all night, heard a high e pop
Sparks flyin from that string like a hot live wire
hit the sawdust floor, someone shouted fire
Chorus:Guitars they were scorchin,
Mandolin was hot
The bass man kept em going,
The Banjo tuned a lot
Ain't seen nothin' like it,
one smokin' hoedown Bad Bluegrass Boys burned the big barn down
As smoke filled the hall, things were movin'fast
The girl singer cried "Oh Boys I'm trapped"
waitin' on her heroes, to save her from her plight
Only she knows how brave they were that night
How bad bluegrass boys behave, she soon found out
Cuz Every instrument was saved, without a doubt
singed around the edges, not too hurt I spose
But now she sings dressed in asbestos
