Clyde

Lyrics: J. J. Cale
Music: J. J. Cale

Sung by Mike Pascale with Phil Lesh & Friends in 2019.

Clyde plays electric bass
Plays it with finesse and grace
Sit on the porch ain't got no shoes
Pickin' the bass and singin' the blues

Misery loves company
This old dog sings harmony
Tambourine tied to his tail
You can hear him moan you can hear him wail

Jodie baby she got the dollar
Down the road you can hear her holler
Get up Clyde we got things to do
That old dog's singin' the blues

He don't move he don't flinch
Clyde he don't move an inch
Sit on the porch ain't got no shoes
Pickin' the bass and singin' the blues
