Well I was passing by:a pawn shop[00:00:00]
In an older part of town[00:00:25]
Something caught my eye[00:00:26]
And I stopped and turned around[00:00:28]
I stepped inside and there I spied[00:00:34]
In the middle of it all[00:00:39]
Was a beat up old guitar[00:00:41]
Hanging on the wall[00:00:42]
What do you want for that piece of junk[00:00:42]
I asked the old man[00:00:49]
He just smiled and took it down[00:00:53]
And he put it in my hand[00:00:58]
He said You tell me what it's worth[00:00:59]
You're the one who wants it[00:01:03]
Tune it up play a song[00:01:05]
And let's just see what haunts it[00:01:05]
So I hit a couple of chords[00:01:07]
In my old country way of strumming[00:01:07]
And then my fingers turned to lightning[00:01:10]
Man I never heard it coming[00:01:14]
It was like I always knew it[00:01:41]
I just don't know where I learned it[00:01:43]
It wasn't nothin' but the truth[00:01:47]
So I just reared back and burned it[00:01:49]
Well I lost all track of time[00:01:54]
There was nothing I couldn't pick[00:01:55]
Up and down the neck[00:01:56]
I never missed a lick[00:01:57]
The guitar almost played itself[00:01:58]
There was nothing I could do[00:01:58]
It was getting hard to tell[00:02:01]
Just who was playing who[00:02:05]
When I finally put it down[00:02:05]
I couldn't catch my breath[00:02:06]
My hands were shaking[00:02:07]
And I was scared to death[00:02:09]
The old man finally got up[00:02:10]
Said Where in the hell you been[00:02:14]
I've been waiting all these years[00:02:18]
For you to stumble in[00:02:20]
Then he took down an old dusty case[00:02:21]
Said Go on and pack it up[00:02:26]
You don't owe me nothing[00:02:27]
And then he said Good luck[00:02:30]
There was something spooky in his voice[00:02:32]
And something strange on his face[00:02:38]
When he shut the lid[00:02:41]
I saw my name was on the case[00:02:42]
