A Bluegrass Band

You have to have a banjo
To get that Bluegrass sound
 The bass is a necessity
 To nail the rhythm down

When the fiddler plays a lead
It shoots tingles up your spine
A guitar helps to keep the beat
Or pick the melody line

The Mandolin’s offbeat chop
Makes the Bluegrass whole
Greater than the sum of the parts
 This music’s solid gold
