Country Joe And The Fish - Bass Strings Lyrics
Hey partner, won't you pass that reefer round?
My world is spinnin' yeah, just got to slow it down
Oh, yes you know I've sure got to slow it down.
Get so high this time that you know
I believe I'll go out to the seashore, let the waves wash my mind
Open up my head now just to see what I can find
Oh, yes you know I'm gonna see what I can find.
Just one more trip now, they know I'll stay high
All the time, all the time.
Yes, I'll go out to the desert just to try and find my past
Truth lives all around me but it's just beyond my grasp
I'll let the sand and the stars and the wind
Carry me back, oh carry me back.
L.S.D.

Country Joe And The Fish Bass Strings Comments
this is so stoned
Syd Barrett never came down 😕
Adrian Cooke according to his sister he was fine when they lived together after he left floyd.
The pinnacle of psychedelia.
I had this album, and along with The Doors first album, it was all I
had psychedelic, so I'd listen to it all the time when I got stoned (on
weed). But it wasn't until I heard Bass Strings on acid that I heard
"LSD" three times at the end instead of one.
This first album by these guys is a psych masterpiece. They pretty much went downhill after that. Their second album is a great one too, but not quite a favorite.
Those were the days
You guys ever watch You Tube. Monterey festival they are playing Section 43 live. Amazing tape. Now that was the sixties!
Far out man !
These guys should have been way more popular.
They have been very popular. Plus Country Joe McDonald performed in '69 Woodstock. What else?
Maybe he's referring to the fact that they had no top 40 hit singles and the highest chart position any of their albums made was 39. They were an underground phenomenon, but a big one, admittedly. I love this group.
I agree. They WERE popular back then but not mainstream. I don't think they get enough recognition these days either. @Shannon Kinney
They were "popular" in the same way that the Velvet Underground....very undergroundly popular...LOL
Love to listen to it then to "Because" by the Beatles

This is what LSD feels like
Its the organ
Hey partner, won't you pass that reefer round?
My world is spinnin' yeah, just got to slow it down
Oh, yes you know I've sure got to slow it down.
Get so high this time that you know
I'll never come down, I'll never come down.
I believe I'll go out to the seashore, let the waves wash my mind
Open up my head now just to see what I can find
Oh, yes you know I'm gonna see what I can find.
Just one more trip now, they know I'll stay high
All the time, all the time.
Yes, I'll go out to the desert just to try and find my past
Truth lives all around me but it's just beyond my grasp
Oh, yes you know it's just beyond my grasp.
I'll let the sand and the stars and the wind
Carry me back, oh carry me back.

loved it back then - love it now. just fucking awesome.
Nothing has ever been created like it.

I have fucked many bitches to this song
I have flicked many switches to this song.
I have dug many ditches to this song.
I have scratched many itches to this song !
I have built many bridges to this song
I ate a lot of pills to this song....
only 4 years after "Da Doo Ron Ron"
Yet such a difference in sound ha. Gotta love 60s and 70s music. Pass the reefer 'round lads.
Another great record in its own field
Heavy man--this was psychedelic music!
