Six Shiny Strings (六字箴言) - Chris Wall[00:00:00]

A one two[00:00:00]

One two three[00:00:02]

On a downtown street in Memphis[00:00:10]

A gets walkin into Elvis' shoes[00:00:12]

Ain't got enough[00:00:16]

To make the rent much less to pay his dues[00:00:18]

But he walks into an old pawn shop[00:00:23]

And he plunks down everything he's got[00:00:25]

Six shiny strings on an old wooden box[00:00:28]

Well the man throws in an old case[00:00:34]

Can't wait to get it home[00:00:37]

And he plays and he plays in a secret place[00:00:40]

'Til there's a pounding on the wall[00:00:43]

Well the guy next door yelling knock it off man[00:00:47]

I don't want to have to call the cops[00:00:50]

But he can't stop he done heard the call[00:00:52]

Six shiny strings on an old wooden box[00:00:58]

Put her in the right hands man[00:01:03]

The dang thing nearly talks[00:01:05]

It'll thrill your soul it will cheer your bones[00:01:07]

Brother right down to your socks[00:01:10]

Six shiny strings on an old wooden box[00:01:13]

Well he picks and he plays on it every day[00:01:19]

'Til he finally gets the call[00:01:21]

The guitar man's too drunk to play[00:01:24]

Down at the legion hall[00:01:26]

Well he hits the stage and he burns it up[00:01:30]

The crowd starts yelling brother turn it up[00:01:33]

And he takes his first step down a lost highway[00:01:35]

Six shiny strings on an old wooden box[00:01:41]

Put her in the right hands man[00:01:46]

The dang thing nearly talks[00:01:48]

It'll thrill your soul it will cheer your bones[00:01:50]

Brother right down to your socks[00:01:53]

Six shiny strings on an old wooden box[00:01:56]

And they said play your heart out kid[00:02:23]

Oh Lord don't you know he did[00:02:25]

In a cloud of dust he was on the bus and gone[00:02:28]

Bright lights and neon signs[00:02:34]

The years flew by in forth fore time[00:02:36]

Now he calculates the price for every song[00:02:40]

On an old tour bus in Texas[00:02:45]

Cat's pickin out a lonesome tune[00:02:47]

He tells himself he's trying to write[00:02:51]

He's just a howling at the moon[00:02:54]

Well he starts downhill and it hits the steel[00:02:58]

Assorted wives and a few ex kids[00:03:00]

And he can't make the change that's a coming soon[00:03:03]

In some old Nashville hock shop[00:03:08]

A man's living with the cash in hand[00:03:10]

He traded in a Martin box and one shiny golden band[00:03:14]

Outside some kid had stopped a guy[00:03:20]

Starring in the window of that old pawn shop[00:03:23]

Six shiny strings on an old wooden box[00:03:26]

Six shiny strings on an old wooden box[00:03:33]

Put her in the right hands man[00:03:38]

The dang thing nearly talks[00:03:40]

It'll thrill your soul it will cheer your bones[00:03:42]

Brother right down to your socks[00:03:45]

Six shiny strings on an old wooden box[00:03:48]

Six shiny strings on an old wooden box[00:03:54]
