lirik lagu chuck gillespie – pawn shop six string
verse 1:
when i was a little boy
i really wanted to be
singing on stage like
johnny cash or elvis presley.
a tennis racket for guitar
and a hairbrush microphone.
i’d sing love me tender
and green green gr-ss of home.
my dreams of really makin’ big
lacked a lot of needed noise.
had to get me a real guitar
and put away those toys. there’s
not a lot of money for a fifteen year old kid. headed to the west end of town is exactly what i did.
chorus:
and bought me that p-wn shop six string
got you at the p-wn and loan.
laid down twenty dollars
i was free to take you home.
you probably didn’t know it,
but i feel scratched up too.
guess i’m just a p-wn shop six string myself.
p-wn shop six string, oh the places you took me.
playin’ guitar in raunchy bars for a burger and a drink.
you probably didn’t know it, but i feel scratched up too.
guess i’m just a p-wn shop six string myself.
verse 2:
i brought you home on the city bus
and headed for my room.
the lyrics started coming,
we turned them into tunes.
we wrote all about the girls i loved.
the heartaches and the joys.
to us, it sounded really good.
to mom, just a bunch of noise.
lots of scratches and a messed up bridge
and frets that made me bleed.
you were used… seemed very old.
to a young boy like me.
many years later, i’m playing with new guitars.
writing songs that never get heard from the bottom of my heart.
chorus:
p-wn shop six string
got you at the p-wn and loan.
laid down twenty dollars
i was free to take you home.
you probably didn’t know it,
but i feel scratched up too.
guess i’m just a p-wn shop six string myself.
p-wn shop six string, oh the places you took me.
playin’ guitar in raunchy bars for a burger and a drink.
you probably didn’t know it, but i feel scratched up too.
guess i’m just a p-wn shop six string myself.
bridge:
just once i’d like the world to hear.
what that old guitar and i’ve been up to all these years.
chorus:
p-wn shop six string
got you at the p-wn and loan.
laid down twenty dollars
i was free to take you home.
guess you didn’t know it,
but i feel scratched up too.
guess i’m just a p-wn shop six string myself.
p-wn shop six string, oh the places you took me.
playin’ guitar in raunchy bars for a burger and a drink.
you probably didn’t know it, but i feel scratched up too.
guess i’m just a p-wn shop six string myself.
guess i’m just a p-wn shop six string myself.
