this here guitar (kaye/heidl)

I’ve been here
I’ve been there
pretty women you know I’ve had my share
but I’m tellin you pretty mama
I’ll never put this guitar down
she pick me up when I feel blue
when I get bored she give me somethin’ to do
I´m tellin you everybody
I’ll never put this guitar down

there was a time when I lost my way
I quit it flat and started workin’ in the day
but a little voice said son you know who you are
you were born to play this here guitar
come on

drunk girl: can you play Proud Mary?
jay: uh can we talk about this some other time?
I’m trying to take my solo here
drunk girl: but I’d like to hear Proud Mary
jay: get off the stage

there was a time I heard my baby say
get yourself a real job! n start bringin’ home the pay
but that little voice way down inside my head said
boy if you put this guitar down you’ll be better off dead

well my baby left me
she took the money n the car
but I still got my music
n I got this here guitar
I’m tellin’ you pretty mama
I’ll never put this guitar down
I’m tellin’ you everybody
I’ll never put this guitar down
I thank the Lord for my fingers
and I thank him for this here guitar
