BLUEGRASS BREAKDOWN
DAVE THE POET

I won’t get forgiveness, Something I’ve not earned
One way ticket to Hattie’s, My soul in hell will burn
Stage is set, Best show in town
Every picker known, Will be there
At the Bluegrass Breakdown

Bob Wills, Is the caller, It’s his show
Uncle Josh Graves, Skinning the ole dobro
Flat’s picking guitar, Scruggs clawing the six string banjo
Cedric Rainwater, On double bass, Thumping beats like gold
Chubby Wise’s fiddle, Will heal your soul
The Monroe mandolin, Dancers choice
Although a bit foggy, They’re the Blue Grass Boys

Start a fire, Tune up, Gather round
The stars are out tonight
At the Bluegrass Breakdown

Sam Busch and Tim O’Brien
Going to do their thing
Allison Krause and the Sibley Angels
Stay up late and sing
Kenny Malone, Shuffling, Keeping the beat
Darryl Scott, Strumming to his poetry
Casey on fiddle, The man with red shoes
Victor Krause on base, Dobro Douglas
Peter Rowan, For those high lonesome blues
Dancing never stops, Air is full of sound
The String Dusters are up next
At the Bluegrass Breakdown

Head out to Rocky Grass, Folk West, Pagosa high country
Best of friends, Pretty girls, Hemenger’s horns sour free
Party never stops, Dance away the night
Reality, Is festival life

I won’t get forgiveness, Something I’ve not earned
One way ticket to Hattie’s, My soul in hell will burn
Stage is set, Best show in town
Every picker known, Will be there
At the Bluegrass Breakdown
