Big Long Slidin' Thing Songtext
von Michelle Willson

Well, I′ve been in every bar
Been in every honky tonk
I've been tryin′ to find my daddy
With that old down piece of junk
I asked everyone to help me
Cried, "Help me if you can"
Yeah, you'll know my daddy
He's that trombone playin′ man

Tell me, where is my daddy?
Where is my daddy with that big long slidin′ thing?

I even asked a man
That played a steel guitar
He said that you don't need him
To be moved eight to the bar
He brought his amplifier
And he hitched it in my plug
He planked it and he plunked it
But it just wasn′t good enough


'Cause I need my daddy
Tell me, where is my daddy with that big long slidin′ thing?

Well, then a knock came at my door
I said, "Mm, must be my man"
I opened up the door
And there stood Piano Man
He said, "I've come to do some tinklin′
On your piano keys"
I said, "Man, don't make me nervous
This ain't no time to tease"

Just send me my daddy
Send me my daddy with that big long slidin′ thing
Yeah now

Well, the first time he played
I asked him how it was done
He said, "I blow through here
And then I work my fingers and my thumb
I slide it right off
Then I slide it back again
I get a lot of wind
And then I slide it back again"


Where is my daddy
With that big long slidin′ thing?
Oh yeah
