Black Bart Blues

Bruce: "What the fuck is that?"

Nerd: "Hi guys, are you in a band or something?
I mean, har, it would be so cool if you were in a
band 'cos you're driving a big bus with band on
the front of it..."

Bruce: "Why don't you shut up and get on board will ya?"

Nerd: "Wow! I have it here, you got a stereo and a
microwave and, and you got a beer, I'd like a Heineken
if you've got one that's real cool, that's great, yeah!"

Bruce: "Would you like to see Black Bart?"

Nerd: "Who's Black Bart?"

Bruce: "Let me introduce you..."

Black Bart's seen it, Black Bart knows,
Black Bart's done it, the Black Bart blues
Suspended in suspension,
Medieval nights in Tennessee, and elsewhere.
We all got to try the Black Bart blues.

Black Bart's truckin' ain't what it seems,
Black Bart's lookin', don't know where she's been
Maybe she's an acrobat,
Spends her evenings dancing on a pole
We all got to try the Black Bart blues.

Black Bart tried it most of anything,
Black Bart liked it but he couldn't sing
So he asked me to tell ya,
try it for yourself and you will see
We all got to try the Black Bart blues

Bruce: "What did you do that for?"
Nerd: "I'm sorry, I just... I guess I'm not used to..."
Bruce: "Shut up and get on with it, will you!"

Black Bart's livin' across the ocean now,
Black Bart's lookin' to come back somehow
So if you're a dancer,
you could dance around his pole in May
That's a maypole

Black Bart's coming, now Black Bart's gone,
Black Bart did it, so I wrote this song
Whatever and however,
in and out or several at a time... hmmm yes!
We all got to do the Black Bart blues
Here comes the guitar solo

We all got to try the Black Bart blues
Yowsa! Yowsa! Yowsa!
