Thanks! Here are the lyrics... Rag Mama - Blind Boy Fuller Going down town with my hat in my hand Lookin' for a woman ain't got no man Might as well be lookin' for a needle in the sand Lookin' for a woman ain't got no man Rag Mama (rag mama) Rag Mama (rag mama) Mama do that rag Now, you get one woman, you better get two One for your buddy and one for you You better get a wife and a sweetheart too Wife don't love you but your sweetheart do Rag Mama... I never thought my gal would treat me so Lover man in my back door Now, come on mama, what you know You gonna reap just what you sow Rag Mama…

[@joephillips4082]

Ha! Great fun Phil. Say, where'd you hide that kazoo?

[@PhilDoleman]

It's a new act I'm working on :-)

[@howlinhobbit]

@@PhilDoleman I think Le Pètomane got there before you.😏

[@vincecallagher7636]

Lower the speed for easier learning.

[@PhilDoleman]

Yes, it is a little fast. You can slow the video down in the settings.

[@johntuson3562]

Are you doing the Hawaiian strumming pattern please john

[@PhilDoleman]

Hi John, No, just down down down up down to the rhythm 1 2 3&4.

[@colin25250]

great Phil. Question: sometimes you use your second finger to barre the d7 and sometimes the first. Is there a reason?

[@PhilDoleman]

Usually it depends on the chord I'm coming from or going to. A7 to D7 works nicely with a second finger barre. When come out of the solo my hand is in a different position so I went for the index finger (though most of this was not something I was aware of whilst playing, it kind of takes care of itself!)

[@marymcgown497]

How do I download sheet music.

[@PhilDoleman]

There's no sheet for this one, as it's just those same 4 chords repeated.

[@liligambettes4778]

Hello, what's the tuning you used for this song? Thanks

[@PhilDoleman]

It's standard uke tuning, GCEA .

[@liligambettes4778]

ok thank you for your reply, Phil
