bagpipes - that's my bag
Singer: ray stevens
well
blowin' that bagpipe
that's my bag
hu-huffin' and a-puffin' on my bagpipe bag
wheezin' and a-blowin' 'til my big fat floppy jowls sag
make it sound like a train comin' over the trestle
if i blowed it any harder
i could bust a blood vessel
blowin' that bagpipe bag - ow! that's my bag
ready
set
gonna blow a little bit. he came over the water on a boat from scotland
to the us
started him a rock and roll band
playin' for picnics
parties
cookouts and parades
he'd stand on the bandstand in his red plaid kilt
groovin' on his bag
how the melody would lilt
played up at harvard and down in vanderbilt
he's a mess
huh huh
wears a dress
well
blowin' that bagpipe
that's my bag
hu-huffin' and a-puffin' on my bagpipe bag
wheezin' and a-blowin' 'til my big fat floppy jowls sag
make it sound like the whistle on a big ol' train
if i blowed it any harder
i could bust a blood vein
blowin' that bagpipe bag - ow! that's my bag
one
two. gon' blow some for you
well
his name was patrick alfred muldoon
never got up 'til it was late in the afternoon
practiced all night. you hum it
he could play it
any tune
yeah
and he'd blow up flat tires to keep his lungs in shape
and his face would turn purple like a big fat grape
ev'ry time he cut out on the chorus of claire de lune"
