ode to the bass

zooker · 12-02-06, 10:02 PM

Bass Came down to New York
The bass went down to New York. He was lookin' for bait to steal. He was in a bind 'cause he was way behind, and he was willin' to make a deal, when he came across this young man fishin' in a shanty and keepin' it hot. And the bass jumped up on a bucket and said, "Boy, let me tell you what.
"I guess you didn't know it but I'm a angler, too. And if you'd care to take a dare, I'll make a bet with you. Now, you fish a pretty good jig, boy, but give the bass his due. I'll bet a Genz stick of gold against your soul, 'cause I think I'm better than you." The New Yorker said, "My name's pnj, and it might be a sin. But I'll take your bet, you're gonna regret, 'cause I'm the best that's ever been."
pnj, rosin up your reel and jig your pole hard, 'cause hell's broke loose in New York and the bass deals the cards. And if you win you get this shiny jig rod made of gold. But if you lose, the bass gets your soul.
the bass opened up his case and he said, "I'll start this show." And fire flew from his fingertips as he tied on his rattle spoon. And he lowered the line down the hole and it made an evil hiss. Then a band of demons joined in and it sounded somethin' like this:
When the bass finished, pnj said, "Well, you're pretty good, old son, but sit down in that chair right there and let me show you how it's done."
Fire on the ice. Run, boys, run. The bass is in the Shanty of the Rising Sun. Chicken in the bread pan pickin' out dough. Granny, does your dog bite? No, child, no.
The bass bowed his head because he knew that he'd been beat. And he laid that golden jig rod on the ice at pnj's feet. pnj said, " bass, just come on back if you ever want to try again. 'Cause I told you once, you son of a gun, I'm the best that's ever been"..

Zooker,That is too funny. You referring to a Charlie Daniels song will get you stereotyped as a Redneck

There anit no hard water here yet. just got back from trying to find a patch of crappie roosting on the brushpiles in Lamoka.I did manage to catch a few perch and a dinky smallmouth, but no crappies yet.It seems as though Deacons posts gets me fired up every time.Thinking I should have moved to the left coast instead of the right one, because they anit on the same page, fish size wise.

When you coming home anyway ?

The original is called "The Devil went down to Georgia" by the Charlie Daniels Band. One of his biggest hits.
