Bud is missing, Floyd is missing;

Most nights we play, we are a band of seven;

But for tonight, we've a BAND OF FIVE;

We got the drive, keepin'the sound alive.

 

Ace is drumming, Charlie's strummin';

Dave's got the bass and we got it comin';

Riffin' real hot, Eddies' strings' on fire;

Gino's on keys, takes the band's sound higher.

 

We found us a great sound.

To get things revin', we need all seven

No one else but us arrived--Just five.;

 

With half our staff home, we won't play half-tones;

When we're full-blown, we're a band of seven;

But for this gig, we're a BAND OF FIVE;

We got the drive, keepin' the sound alive.

 

Our band is great band.

With seven we're groovin, but we're still movin';

Keepin' all the sound alive--Just five.

 

Tho we miss em', we still got rhythm;

Gino and Dave keepin' the bass line bumpin'.

Ace is drumming, Charlie's strummin';

We got the drive, and were keepin' it comin'.
