Guitar Man |
| Well I quit my job down at the carwash I left my mama a goodbye note |
| By sundown I’d left Kingston with my guitar under my coat |
| Hitchhiked down to Memphis I got a room at the YMCA |
| For the next three weeks I went a hountin' them night clubs |
| Looking for a place to play |
| Well I thought my pickin' would set 'em on fire |
| But nobody wanted to hire a guitar man |
| No they didn’t hey hey hey keep a kyo yodel hoo hey hey sock it to son |
| Well I nearly bout starved to death down in Memphis I run out of money and luck |
| And I bummed me a ride down to Macon Georgia on a overloaded poultry truck |
| Hitchhiked down to Panama City started checkin' out them all night bars |
| Hopin' I could make myself a dollar makin' music on my guitar |
| Well I thought my pickin' would set 'rm on fire |
| But nobody wanted to hire a guitar man |
| No they didn’t hey hey hey keep a kyo yodel hoo hey hey hook it to son |
| So if you ever take a trip down to the ocean find yourself down round Mobile |
| Just make it on out to the club called Jack’s if you got a little time to kill |
| You’ll find that crowd of people out on this dance floor |
| Diggin' the finest little five piece group up and down the Gulf of Mexico |
| And wouldn’t know who’s leadin' that band |
| Why wouldn’t you know it’s that swingin' little swingin' little guitar man |
| Yes he is hey hey hey keep a kyo yodel hoo hey hey take it on out |
| Guitar man guitar man guitar man guitar man |
| Guitar man guitar man guitar man |
