Carole once told me she dreamed she was pretty And lived in a very cool part of the city With a man who came home every evening at six And begged her to play him country licks On her steel guitar Show biz tricks on her steel guitar
Her Pa'd been a welder during the war And he played country music every night till four With some drugstore cowboys who could pick and grin And if you let it all out they'd bring it back in On a steel guitar They'd go from hell to breakfast on a steel guitar
He taught his daughter to drink whiskey like water And go for the man who had something to offer He said to her, Baby, you can go very far With an easy laugh and a steel guitar A steel guitar You don't need a man, you got a steel guitar
Jack was a rambler, he'd been around Nashville He knew all the tricks and he sure wasn't bashful When he sas Carole playing steel guitar He said to her, Mama, we could sure go far On your steel guitar We could make it together on your steel guitar
Make a short story longer they had a couple of children Jack went to war and the enemy killed him Carole got his pension and a purple heart And every night till two she tears them apart With her steel guitar Says, You don't need a man with a steel guitar
She plays country music and she's paid up her dues You ought drop in if you got nothing to lose She can steal a guitar, steal a heart And they come every night to get torn apart By a steel guitar She's got a Sho-Bud Special, it's a steel guitarTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
