Band : The Red Hot Chili Peppers
Song : Yertle The Turtle
Album : Freakey Styley (1985)
Note : great funk song with a cool bass part. The other tab was wrong, especially
for the verse. This is how Flea plays in live.

| aaah i love this song! The Peppers were the perfect band to cover a Dr Suess book, for sure. The heavy funk beat suits it perfectly. Huzzah for stackable turtles! | |
