[Verse 1]
Mel Bay, in your manual, you taught us how to hold a pick
You got to hold it in this manner, to play them fancy licks
Now we re happily strummin along, and you ought to hear us play
And I guess we owe it all to you, thanks a lot, Mel Bay
[Chorus]
Mel Bay, Mel Bay, we just wanna say
We wouldn t know what we re doin, if you hadn t shown the way
Mel Bay, Mel Bay, everytime we play,
we re always thinking of you, and hope you have a nice day
(Play Red River Valley - badly)

[Verse 2]
On page 21, you showed us how to play a G
On page 22, you showed us how to play a D
But Lawdy, oh lawdy, we never learned to play an E,
cause someone in the outhouse, stole page 23
[Verse 3]
I m goin down to Goodins, to buy me a ukelele
I wanna learn to play Gershin, on the uke-le-le
I just bought your book, Mel Bay, on how to play the fiddle
I can play, on that high string, and those two in the middle

Mel Bay, Mel Bay, we just wanna say
We wouldn t know what we re doin, if you hadn t shown the way
Mel Bay, Mel Bay, everytime we play,
we re always thinking of you, Mel Bay, and hope you have a nice day
[Verse 4]
We re available for dances, that wouldn t be a task
and ready to sign autographs, if anyone should ask
You know we re gettin better, than we ever thought we could
Please send us another book and we ll play twice as good
[Chorus]
Mel Bay, Mel Bay, we just wanna say
We wouldn t know what we re doin, if you hadn t shown the way
Mel Bay, Mel Bay, everytime we play,
we always thinking of you and hope you have a nice day
