Well, come on over to my house
I got a friend and he sings too
Written one or two of his own songs lately
Maybe you'd like a few
So I gathered up all of my papers
And I planned to stay the night
We sat around singin' in a smoky room
Around the candlelight
He used to be in a rock band
Way back in '67
He knew those songs like the back of his hand
From Springfield up through Harrison
But there never was a poet who could sing the blues
(There never was a poet who could sing the blues)
And get the boys to join in
Like an all American long haired denimed
Songwriting guitar man (he was guitar man)
ย
He'll always carry a Yamaha
And leave the Martin at home
But find a better man on the harmonies
Or I'm country pickin' alone
Dylan, Joni, and the Taylor's
And even their private lives
Spoonful, Russell, and the Grateful Dead
And the names of every one of the wives
But let me play you a new tune
And you can learn the melody
He sang another song about a long-lost friend
It sounded like Neil Young heavily
But there never was a poet who could sing the blues
(There never was a poet who could sing the blues)
And get the boys to join in
Like an all American long haired denimed
Songwriting guitar man (he was guitar man)
ย
Strum that sweet Van Morrison
And the oldest Beatles you can (love, love with you)
Love that West Coast "Piece of My Heart"
(Take another little piece of my heart) now a little Brown and The Band
But let me play you one of my old songs (oh)
I think you'll like the melody (oh, oh)
He sang another song about a travelin' band (oh)
(Don't let it bring you down) it sounded like Neil Young heavily
But there never was a poet who could sing the blues
(There never was a poet who could sing the blues)
And get the boys to join in
Like an all American long haired denimed
Songwriting guitar man (he was guitar man)
