Swing out Dave - The Blues Band, Peter King, Onslaught Orchestra

There’s a fellow in our band

He’s the best in all the land

Bottleneck and a strong right hand

Swing out Dave

Once he drove a laundry truck

Then he had a change of luck

When The Blues Band called him up

Swing out Dave

Some men search for fortune

Others seek for fame

With Dave it’s the music

He plays those blues licks

That’s how he made his name

Lets his fingers do the walking

Lets his guitar do the talking

In Cork, New York and Rolling Fork

Swing out Dave

When it’s time to raise the heat

Get the folks up on their feet

The engine room lays down the beat

Swing out Rob

Oh no — it’s the bass solo

Some men search for fortune

Others seek for fame

Dave’s played with Muddy

John Lee and Buddy

Helping to carry the flame

Lets his fingers do the walking

Lets his guitar do the talking

In Cork, New York and deepest Dorking

Swing out

Let it ring out

Swing out Dave
