I wrote a knife song - inspired by another song

In the shower came up with a country blues type chorus, still working on the verses but hey, it's for fun right.

I'm calling it Super Blues

(Verses)
I say I don't care and then you tell me your fair, I just wanna be there with you... super blue

I say I don't cry and then you tell me goodbye, I get a tear in my eye I do....super blue

(chorus)
I might buy you flowers and diamond rings but that don't really mean a thing.

I only buy them to balance the books, it eases my conscience and I can get my hooks,

On another blade that will be by my side, when I'm in the hills or out for a ride.
(end chorus)(but could be a verse instead)

Coz your not there when the winds in my hair....???

As far as I got😆
 
Brought a twang to my eye it did.

So I kinda went my own way with it. Not sure if or when I'll be ready to sing it in front of y'all, but here is what I came up with:

Dear smith, you made many, many folding knives,
I realize, of course, that it's no shame to be foldable.
But it's no great honor either!
So, what would have been so terrible if I had been a fixed blade?

If I were a fixed blade,
Shivy divvy divvy divvy divy divvy divvy dum.
All day long I'd cut chop and baton.
If I were a full tang blade.
I'd have no fear to work hard.
Shivy divvy divvy divvy divy divvy divvy dum..

If I were a bitty bitty fixed,
Never folding never idle blade.

I'd build a big bonfire with logs by the dozen,
Split down the middle every one.
A fine steel wedge with sleek handles to adore.
There would be one long liner just going up,
And one even longer coming down
And one mosaic pin, as well, just for show.

I'd fill my pockets with keys and coins and bills and cards,
For my own EDC loadout to use.
Rustling just as noisily as they can.
And each loud "jingle" and "jangle" and "clink" and "clack"
Would land like a cymbal like on the ear,
As if to say "Here lives no folding knife."

If I were a fixed blade,
Shivy divvy divvy divvy divy divvy divvy dum.
All day long I'd cut chop and baton.
If I were a full tang blade.
I'd have no fear to work hard.
Shivy divvy divvy divvy divy divvy divvy dum.
If I were a bitty bitty fixed,
Never folding never idle blade.

I'd see my boss, my owner, use me like a useful tool
With a proper grip and care.
Breaking up hard woods to heart's delight.
I'd see him cutting stuff up and conquering obstacles.
Oh, what a helpful mood he's in.
Separating matter, day and night.

The most important tasks in life would rely on me!
They would ask me to slice through,
Like a skilled blade in action.
"If you please, trusty knife..."
"Pardon me, handy knife..."
Solving problems that call for a sharp stout blade!

And it won't make one bit of difference if I'm stainless or carbon.
When you're practical, they know you're good to go!

If I were a fixed blade,
Shivy divvy divvy divvy divy divvy divvy dum.
All day long I'd cut chop and baton.
If I were a full tang blade.
I'd have no fear to work hard.
Shivy divvy divvy divvy divy divvy divvy dum.
If I were a bitty bitty fixed,
Never folding never idle blade.

Maker who crafted the blade and the handle,
You designed me to be what I am.
Would it spoil some vast eternal plan?
If I were a fixed blade knife?
