Testo Steel Guitar - Chris Smither
Testo della canzone Steel Guitar (Chris Smither), tratta dall'album Drive You Home Again
Yeah, Carol once told me that she dreamed she was pretty
And lived in a very cool part of the city
With a man that came home every evening at six
He begged her to play him his favorite licks
On a steel guitar
Yeah, on a real guitar
'Cause she could put it all together on a steel, on a real guitar
'Cause her pa'd been a well dug daughter in the war
And they played country music every night 'til four
With some drug store cowboys, they'd pick and grin
You let it all out, they'd bring it all back in
On a steel guitar
Yeah, on a real guitar
They could put it all together on a steel, on a steel guitar
And he taught his daughter to drink whiskey like water
To go for a man with something to offer
And he said to her, "Baby, you can go very far
With an easy life and a steel guitar"
But that steel guitar
Yeah, that steel guitar
He say, "You don't need a man with a steel, with a steel guitar"
Well now, Jack was a rambler, he'd been around Nashville
And he knew all the tricks, boy, he sure wasn't bashful
He heard Carol a-playin' steel guitar
And he said to her, "Baby, you and me could go far"
On that steel guitar
Yeah, on that steel guitar
Come on, let's put it all together on a steel, on a steel guitar
To make a long story short, they had a couple of children
Jack went to war and the enemy killed him
Carol got his pension and a Purple Heart
Now every evening 'til two, she just picks 'em apart
On that steel guitar
Yeah, on a real guitar
She said, "I don't need no man, I got a steel, I got a real guitar"
