Here comes McBride straight down the aisle
Walkin the bass with his rhythmin' style
When chris was young, ready to bust
Roared thru the scene leavin' cats in his dust

Talk about sound, well his is fat
Most of the cats dig it like that

Dave heard him play, diggin' his time
He wrote this tune now i'm writin' the rhyme
I would've thought it was for me
Love how it feels when it's played in my key
It's not too high, it's not too low
Sits in my range from do to do

Here comes McBride, i'm glad he came
Playin' the tune Brubeck wrote to his name

Folks heard him play, they dug his time
Dave wrote the tune now i'm writin' the rhyme

Talk about sound well, his is fat
Most of us cats dig it like that

Here comes McBride straight down the aisle
Walking' the bass with his rhythmin' style
Here comes the man, step to one side
Here comes the bass man, it's christian McBride
