HOMBRES - "let it out" Tablature
Official HOMBRES Tablature & Sheet Music »
The Hombres were from the Memphis area (Bill Cunningham's brother was in
the Box Tops), but it was Texas/Louisiana legend Huey P. Meaux who produced
this weird cross between 'Gloria' and 'Subterranean Homesick Blues' which
made it to #12 in November, 1967.
The spoken intro, BTW, is taken from the 1949 novelty record 'Cigareetes,
Whuskey, and Wild, Wild Women' by Red Ingle and the Natural Seven. -- AWR
"Let It Out (Let It All Hang Out)"
(Bill Cunningham)
Intro:
(spoken): "A preachment, dear friends, you are about to receive
on John Barleycorn, nicotine, and the temptations of Eve"
(Bronx cheer)

Verse 1:
No parkin' by the sewer sign
Hot dog, my razor's broke
Water drippin' up the spout
But I don't care, let it all hang out
Verse 2:
Hangin' from a pine tree by my knees
Sun is shinin' through the shade
Nobody knows what it's all about,
It's too much, man, let it all hang out
Break:

Verse 3:
Saw a man walkin' upside down
My T.V.'s on the blink
Made Galileo look like a Boy Scout
Sorry 'bout that, let it all hang out
Verse 4:
Sleep all day, drive all night
Brain my numb, can't stop now
For sure ain't no doubt
Keep an open mind, let it all hang out
[repeat break]
Verse 5:
It's rainin' inside a big brown moon
How does that mess you baby up, leg
Eatin' a Reuben sandwich with sauerkraut
Don't stop now, baby, let it all hang out
Coda:
Let it all hang out (harmonized) [repeat to fade]
-- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official HOMBRES tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
