Good songs for only a guitarist and a drummer?

It seems it's easier to find condoms in a convent than it is to find a good bassist where I live.

Both my bandmate and I play drums, guitar, and bass, but unfortunately we can't find anyone else to play bass -- drums and guitar are our respective best instruments.

I've got a few in mind... Thickfreakness and Your Touch by The Black Keys, Lightning Bolt by Jake Bugg, or Problem by The Job.

I refuse to play White Stripes because, as much as I love them, I just... the drums kill my soul. Meg White makes me sad to be a female drummer.

Update:

Lightning Bolt by Jake Bugg has a bassline, but I figure we could do it without -- it'd just sound more Dylan-esque. Not sure though, it might be integral. Any opinions?

    I love your name! I love the Ramones! :D Brain Stew/Jaded is a very good song for just guitar and drums.
