Five-String Gibson Mastertone
Ed Newberg

Helpin' my friend Alex unload his rented truck

A score spent in the city hadn't changed him all that much

Laughin' 'bout the silly things men never throw away

Like this red four buckle over shoe, hope to find the left someday

Then underneath an underwood in a chest too big to lift

Was a dusty old black leather case and I realized what I'd missed

I hollered at old Alex, Time to pay for all our help!

So he strapped on that old Mastertone and this is what he yelled

(Chorus)

Funny thing about pickin', You never really do forget

Then he cut loose on his five-string and he never missed a lick

Pretty soon our toes were tappin' out the rhythm on the floor

Of a rented Rider truck box underneath the roll up door

(Banjo instrumental)

Neighbors gathered 'round the lift gate like the grand ol' opry's stage

I stood proudly by my best friend as they all looked so amazed

Then he cut loose with another and he sent our hearts to space

Just a rented truck box but at the time there weren't no better place

Neither beer nor whiskey nor those home-grown cigarettes

Ever made me feel so happy as the day I found that chest

With the five-string Gibson Mastertone so elegantly held

By the master of the art form, my friend Alex when he yelled

(Chorus)

(Banjo instrumental)
