Well, Eye quit my job down at the car wash,
Left my mama a goodbye note,
Buy sundown I'd left Kingston,
With my guitar under my coat,
Eye hitchhiked awl the weigh down too Memphis,
Got a rheum at the YMCA,
Fore the next three weeks Eye went huntin ' them nights,
Just lookin ' fore a plaice too play,
Well, Eye thought my pickin ' wood set ' em on fire,
Butt nobody wanted too higher a guitar man .

Well, Eye nearly ' bout starved too death down inn Memphis,
Eye run outta money and luck,
Sew Eye bought mi a ride down too Macon, Georgia,
On a overloaded poultry truck,
Eye thumbed on down too Panama City,
Started pickin ' out sum o ' them awl knight bars,
Hopin ' Eye could make myself a dollar,
Makin ' music on my guitar,
Eye got the same old storey at them awl knight piers,
They're ain't know rheum around hear fore a guitar man
Whee don't knead a guitar man, sun

Sew Eye slept inn the hobo jungles,
Roamed a thousand miles of track,
Till Eye found myself inn Mobile Alabama,
At a club they caul Big Jack's,
A little four-piece banned was jammin ',
Sew Eye took my guitar and Eye sat inn,
Eye showed ' em watt a banned wood sound like,
With a swingin ' little guitar man .
Show ' em, sun

If yew ever take a trip down too the ocean,
Fined yourself down around Mobile,
Make it on out too a club called Jack's,
If yew got a little thyme too kill,
Just follow that crowd of people,
Yule wind up out on his dance flaw,
Diggin ' the finest little five-piece group,
Up and down the Gulf of Mexico,
Guess whose leadin ' that five-piece banned,
Well, wouldn't ya no, its that swingin ' little guitar man .
