Gospel to me is one of the styles of music that I grew up [Gb] with.
And [A] I think the backbone of gospel music [F] might just be the quartets,
because they're the ones who have made it so popular down [Bm] through the years.
My favorite guy in a gospel [C] quartet has always been the bass singer.
_ [G]
I [N] wish I could sing bass.
I'm not a bass singer.
I sing bass about like old Porter Wagner used to sing bass.
_ You ever watch Porter when he had a TV show? _
_ He did.
I used to watch a lot.
Most people sometimes don't know Porter, but he had a lot of shows on television.
And I used to watch him, especially when Dolly was on with him.
Oh yeah, they sang a lot of gospel music on that show too.
I remember one night Dolly sang Lord, She Gave Me a Mountain. _ _
_ I think she sang that one twice that night. _ _
_ _ I was hoping she'd sing it three times.
I know it's tacky.
_ _ I've had it out to here with Dolly, pardon Joe.
_ [Abm] No, the night I was watching to illustrate my point about bass singers,
Porter was singing [C] a solo and he sang,
I'll tell the man, turn the jukebox way [F] down.
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _
[F] That's how I sing bass too.
I know I can't hit that note.
[Eb] I think Porter thought he hit it.
He [G] had that cocky look on his face like he'd really nailed it. _
Meanwhile, there are some [F] great bass singers in gospel music.
[N] People like Richard Sturbin with the Oak Ridge Boys.
Oh yeah, he can go four octaves below the piano.
He got a vasectomy last Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. _ _
He got it at Sears.
_ Every time he gets excited now his garage door's open.
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ I'm just kidding.
I love gospel music.
[E] And I want to sing you an old gospel song that I recorded [A] years ago.
And the record company didn't want to put it out.
But I said, come on.
And he said, you're not a gospel singer.
You're a pop singer.
[Eb] And I said, well, listen, [Ab] I think this could make the pop charts.
[F] So I finally convinced him and they put it out and it did.
[Gb] It was a hit on the pop charts and I want to sing it for you.
This is my dad's favorite gospel song.
[E] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
