Wyatt B, the Man to See! Lyrics
(Intro)
Before Les and Mary do another song, look at this
(Chorus)
LES PAUL
LES PAUL
LES PAUL
LES PAUL
(Verse 1)
If you wanna talk innovation, we’re talking Les Paul
If we’re talking guitars, give this man a call
He just made music to make the people happy
28 hits in 8 years, they were dancing (Les Paul)
His impact is priceless
Pushed the boundaries of live performing
He paved the way for songs like this with multi track recording
(Hook)
Did it for the love of the music, (REWARDING)
His licks were therapeutic, (NEVER BORING)
Not lick like some drool tho,(NOT SNORING)
He built beautiful instruments wit drip, (POURING)
(Solo)
(Verse 2)
Grew up playing that acousticl
But he said they’ll be some changes made to this new thing
Les Paul: (Oh, we've got a song that'll go right with that. There'll be some changes made.)

His teacher said “Lester, you’ll never learn music,"
But he went out and he said I’m not losing
He taught himself everything in the midwest
Sing along with me if you know the rest it go
(Chorus)
LES PAUL
(THE ANSWER TO THE CALL)
LES PAUL
(THE WINTER THROUGH THE FALL)
LES PAUL
(GIVING IT HIS ALL)
LES PAUL
(Les Paul)
Just, uh, be able to put my name on an idea, and have it come true
There's a lot of dreams come true in my lifetime
(Jim Axelrod)
Les Paul was a great guitarist, and a genius inventor. He just didn't which he liked better. (Just uh...)
The Gibson Les Paul guitar became the gold standard
Paul McCartney, Keith Richards, Pete Townsend, Joe Walsh
They all have played one
Times at Les Paul's regular Monday night gigs in New York
(Les Paul)
I love to play, I love to entertain, I love to make people laugh, make them happy. That's what keeps me going
(Jimbo)
Les Paul may be silenced tonight at 94, but what he’s left behind, ensures that Rock and Roll never will
