Livingstone Bramble
Had a pretty good rumble
With Ray 'Boom Boom' Mancini
Watched it last night on my TV
On Cla**ic ESPN
Laying in bed next to my girlfriend
Drifted off looking at the ceiling
With a pretty good feeling
And I lay awake all night long
Thinking "Man, that Bramble sure was strong."
And I lay awake all night long
The foghorns blew on and on
I got up and I went to the studio
Got stopped by a crackhead named Jerome
He had a lot to get off his chest
He wanted some money and he was homeless
I gave him some time and twenty bucks
I shook his hand and I said good luck
Then I went to the delicatessen
Got a bottle of water for my session
And I worked out a couple of songs
And I played my guitar all day long
And I worked out a couple of songs
And I played my guitar all day long
I can play like Fripp or Johnny Marr
And I can play circles round Jay Farrar
I like Jeff Beck and Page just fine
But I hate Derek Trucks and Nels Cline
I hate Nels Cline
Got in late last night from the studio
Keith Thurman had a fight on HBO
The rounds went past pretty goddamn slow
But he left with a record of 20 and 0
It was 3 a.m. and my girl was asleep
It was 11 a.m. in Cadiz
So I called my Spanish promoter
About a tour coming up in October
It was 4 a.m. when I hung up
And I cuddled up next to my love
It was 4 a.m. when I went to bed
Couldn't shut the guitars off in my head
I can play like Malcolm and Neil Young
And I can play circles round most anyone
I like Kirk Hammett and Steve Vai
But I hate Eric Clapton and Nels Cline
I hate Nels Cline
