One String Vamp

I only got one string left
It’s got me feeling quite bereft
It really limits what you play
You can’t play chords, there ain’t no way
Single notes are all there are
Left in your repertoire
You’ve got to find some other things
To keep it sounding interesting
Maybe play with vibrato
Maybe a real quick run
Then play real staccato
And a pause, just for fun
You can make a scraping sound
Play it like a drum and get down
Then you throw in a bend
And a harmonic at the end
