Guitar Man

[00:05.93] Well, I quit my job down at the car wash
[00:07.78] Left my mama a goodbye note
[00:09.65] By sundown I'd left Kingston
[00:12.04] With my guitar under my coat
[00:14.28] I hitchhiked all the way down to Memphis
[00:15.77] Got a room at the YMCA
[00:17.96] For the next three weeks I went huntin' them nights
[00:20.46] Just lookin' for a place to play
[00:21.97] Well, I thought my pickin' would set 'em on fire
[00:24.86] But nobody wanted to hire a guitar man
[00:31.16] Well, I nearly 'bout starved to death down in Memphis
[00:32.52] I run outta money and luck
[00:34.59] So I bought me a ride down to Macon, Georgia
[00:37.14] On a overloaded poultry truck
[00:39.65] I thumbed on down to Panama City
[00:40.84] Started pickin' out some o' them all night bars
[00:42.88] Hopin' I could make myself a dollar
[00:44.93] Makin' music on my guitar
[00:47.23] I got the same old story at them all night piers
[00:49.55] There ain't no room around here for a guitar man
[00:51.90] We don't need a guitar man, son
[00:54.78] So I slept in the hobo jungles
[00:57.77] Roamed a thousand miles of track
[00:59.12] Till I found myself in Mobile Alabama
[01:01.93] At a club they call Big Jack's
[01:03.82] A little four-piece band was jammin'
[01:05.72] So I took my guitar and I sat in
[01:07.80] I showed 'em what a band would sound like
[01:10.12] With a swingin' little guitar man
[01:11.44] Show 'em, son
[01:34.78] If you ever take a trip down to the ocean
[01:36.55] Find yourself down around Mobile
[01:38.62] Make it on out to a club called Jack's
[01:40.82] If you got a little time to kill
[01:42.88] Just follow that crowd of people
[01:44.80] You'll wind up out on his dance floor
[01:47.10] Diggin' the finest little five piece group
[01:49.34] Up and down the Gulf of Mexico
[01:51.87] Guess who's leadin' that five-piece band
[01:52.87] Well, wouldn't ya know, it's that swingin' little guitar man, yeah yeah
[01:57.69]
