Clyde played electric bass
  Played it with finesse and grace
  Sat on the porch ain't got no shoes
  Pickin' the bass and singin' the blues
  
  Misery loves company
  That ol' dog sings harmony
  Tambourine tied to his tail
  You can hear him howl,
  you can hear him wail
  
  C'mon Clyde
  Clyde played electric bass,
  Clyde played electric bass
  Clyde played electric bass,
  electric bass
  Electric bass
  C'mon Clyde,
  
  Pickin' the bass 'n' singin' the blues
  Singin' the blues,
  singin' the blues,
  singin' the blues
  
  Jodie girl she got the dollar
  Down the road you can hear her holler
  C'mon Clyde there's things to do
  Clyde keeps pickin' and singin' the blues
  
  He don't care
  
  Clyde played electric bass
  Played it with finesse and grace
  Sat on the porch ain't got no shoes
  Pickin' the bass and singin' the blues
  
  C'mon Clyde, c'mon Clyde, c'mon Clyde
  C'mon Clyde, c'mon Clyde, c'mon Clyde
