Old Guitars
Bacon Brothers, The

She gave me an old guitar

She said teach yourself to play

You've been lookin kind of bored

Maybe this will fill your days

She went out and I stayed in

And I struggled with that Fenn

She went west and I stayed east

And I tried my best to sing

And I sang Sam and Dave

Catch that wave

The Boss and Buddy Holly

And every happy song I sang

Sounded meloncholy

I learned C and G

And D and E

And F and F sharp minor

And in my mind when she walked out

I'd gone to Carolina

And I went

Do do do, do do do do, do do do, do do do do

Do do do, do do do do, do do do, do do do do

Hearts can break just like a string

Old guitars can't fix a string

I Put that Martin in it's case

With the memory of her face

Where it stayed to gather dust

And I went and found someone to trust

I couldn't stand to twist and shout

Not too much to sing about

No more Dave Clark, five cars, see

The three dog night too hot to handle

Even Mozart leaves me cold

Brahms and Bach can't handle

Oh oh Creedance preach

Croochie could

And get my heart a pumpin

Jimmy Smack would not come back

Jack Flash wasn't jumpin

And no more

Do do do, do do do do, do do do do do do do

Do do do, do do do do, do do do do do do do

Fifteen years have come and gone

And my wife hands me this old X

She said I want to pretty please

Watch your big scissory hands

He got six more shiny strings

And you got me alone tonight

Stroke that neck that you've got me

On that guitar nice and tight

And I sang Don and Phil

Who on the hill

The band and man a lion

But every sad sad song I sang

I sang with a smile

I learned Marvin Gaye

Got double paid

The strings and the blue goes

Dolphin king and forcin heart

And even some tomorrow

And I went

Do do do, do do do do, do do do do do do do

Do do do, do do do do, do do do do do do do

I feel fine, Patsy Cline

The king and Stan Dimazie

Maybe we could harmonize

Just like June and Johnny

Thinner than the glimmer twins

And both illusionary

Monkeys sturdy drifters toasters

Jackson and the Opries

One more time

Do do do, do do do do, do do do do do do do

Do do do, do do do do, do do do do do do do
