Play that Country Tuba, Cowboy |
Play that country tuba, cowboy |
Play that country tuba, cowboy |
Play that country tuba, play that country tuba |
Play that country tuba, cowboy |
Well musicians' stories have made the rounds |
About traveling bands in red-neck towns |
But for tuba players this has got to be a first |
This one starts like they all do |
I’d been traveling hard for a day or two |
And I stopped into this joint to quench my thirst |
Up walked this big mountain man |
Said, «What'cha got there? |
A garbage can?» |
And I said, «Excuse me, that’s my tuba, if you please.» |
He said «Great play a country song |
So me and my buddies can sing along» |
And I told him I only play with symphonies |
He slammed his fist and spit out his beer |
And his body language made it very clear |
This wasn’t going to be just another B-flat day |
That’s when he cocked his thirty-odd-six |
And boy, I let out with some country licks |
I’d never thought I’d hear my tuba play |
Play that country tuba, cowboy |
Play that country tuba, cowboy |
Play that country tuba, play that country tuba |
Play that country tuba, cowboy |
Well after a while I ran outta air |
And I figured I’d better get out of there |
So I grabbed my horn and headed for the door |
Just about then I felt a lasso |
Wrapped around me and my tuba too |
And they yanked me back and 'ey hollered «More man more!» |
Play that country tuba, cowboy |
Play that country tuba, cowboy |
Play that country tuba, play that country tuba |
Play that country tuba, cowboy |
