Time takes its toll on everything
From the wooden bridge to the flatwoundstring
The paint is cracked, the pick-ups are comin´ off
The frets are all worn down ´n´ the tuning´s rough
We´ve been on the road so long
The call of home is growin´ strong

A case to the bass A case to the bass

Every night we´re stickin´ with the drums
Playin´ with fingers picks and thumbs
Layin´ down a line that swings
´n´ keepin´ it up ´till the fat lady sings
Ain´t no riff Ain´t no lick
That we ain´t done Ain´t no trick

A case to the bass A case to the bass
A case to the bass A case to the bass

There´s a buzzin´ noise that keeps on gettin´ worse
It´s hummin´ like it´s on the last verse
There´s a growin´ crack in the neck and the knobs are gone
I´m afraid it won´t make it ´till dawn
Now´s the time Just can´t wait
Gotta get it Before too late

A case to the bass A case to the bass
A case to the bass A case to the bass

Let´s put a sticker on ”Handle with care”
Worth it well or the end is near

A case to the bass A case to the bass
A case to the bass A case to the bass
A case to the bass A case to the bass
A case to the bass A case to the bass
