Bass Tribute - Victor Wooten

Written by：Victor Wooten

U gotta have something on the bottom if u want to have a

Band

Gotta have a strong foundation if u gonna make a stand

The bass is center solid as a rock

When your body starts moving u know u just can't

Stop

It's played with the soul not just with the hands

By the best bass players in the land

When the bass starts thumping sho 'nuff hits the spot

And I hope it never stops

Stanley Clarke I tip my hat to u

Jaco pastors u know I love u too

Larry graham thank u for all u do

Just thumping on the bass just thumping on the bass

Ow yeah I'm just thumping on the bass

Bass players used tole the one standing in the back

When jaco first played Donna lee it sho' changed that

When I first saw Stanley Clarke my jaw hit the floor

Just thumping on the bass just thumping on the bass

Ow yeah I'm just thumping on the bass
