Perfectly Good Guitar |
| he threw one down from the top of the stairs |
| beautiful women were standing everywhere |
| they all got wet when he smashed that thing |
| but off in the dark you could hear somebody sing |
| it breaks my heart to see those stars |
| smashing a perfectly good guitar |
| i dont know who they think they are |
| smashing a perfectly good guitar |
| it started back in 1963 |
| his mama wouldnt buy him that new red harmony |
| he settled for a sunburst with a crack |
| but hes still trying to break his mamas back |
| oh it breaks my heart to see those stars |
| smashing a perfectly good guitar |
| i dont know who they think they are |
| smashing a perfectly good guitar |
| how he loved that guitar just like a girlfriend |
| but every good thing comes to an end |
| now he just sits in his room all day |
| whistling every note he ever played |
| well there outta be a law with no bail |
| smash a guitar and you go to jail |
| with no chance for early parole |
| you dont get out until you get some soul |
| oh it breaks my heart to see those stars |
| smashing a perfectly good guitar |
| i dont know who they think they are |
| smashing a perfectly good guitar |
| late at night the end of the road |
| he wishes he still had that old guitar to hold |
| he’d rock it like a baby in his arms |
| never let it come to any harm |
| oh it breaks my heart to see those stars |
| smashing a perfectly good guitar |
| i dont know who they think they are |
| smashing a perfectly good guitar |
