Amazing Dave Miscellaneous Al Trout's Hokum Wáshboard Band (by David Rosenfield) Down in Lawrence town by the river Kaw Is the rockin'-est band you ever heard or saw You won't need earplugs 'Cuz it's just five mugs Makin' jugband jazz without any jugs They've got songs a-plenty Clean and dirty Blue and sporty From maybe circa Nineteen-twenty Or thirty Or forty Oh, Lordy! It's Al Trout's Hokum Washboard Band And you can hear the leader daily Playin' on his ukulele He leads them through the streets to sing And do that string band thing They've got a stand-up bass That'll rock the place 'Cuz it's in yo' face (thumpa thumpa thumpa thumpa) The guitar's Hawaiian When it starts cryin' Your troubles will go where the sun don't shi-ine Sister Rebekah She's a washboard wrecker With a nimble thimbled hand They've only got one fiddle So, it ain't Nelson Riddle It's Al Trout's Hokum Washboard Band! Yeah! [instrumental chorus] They'll kick yo' ass 'Cuz it ain't bluegrass It's Al Trout's Hokum Washboard Band It's fat and naughty But it ain't Pavarotti It's Al Trout's Hokum Washboard Band They've all got white flesh But it ain't John Tesh It's Al Trout's Hokum Washboard Band Al Trout's Hokum (scratch, scratch) Band! |
