Lyrics

You say you made your living from an old flat top guitar You went around the country in a beat up car Well you did that 'til your heart was bitter grown Is that how you ended up being alone? You say there was a lady and you won her with a song That you had written years ago But soon her shine wore off, she got tired of chasing dreams Before too long she had to go So go on play that old six stringer Go on play 'til my heart bleeds Go on play that old six stringer, yeah Right now that's all I need Said you know that lady that I mentioned before She was your mother up 'til '74 She stayed long enough to love us but not long enough to care She didn't need either of us there So go on play that old six stringer Go on play 'til they lay me down Go on play that old six stringer, yeah I'm sorry son I was not around Go on play that old six stringer Go on play 'til my heart bleeds Go on play that old six stringer, yeah Right now that's all I need
