lirik lagu johnathan east – six strings and a song
i left home at 18 with an old flat top guitar
on my way to make myself a name
on the back streets of the city, i stood outside a bar
pickin’ my songs out in the rain
i poured my heart out while the sweat rolled down my
cheek
i tipped my hat as folks just walked along
didn’t have a dime then, nor too much to eat
livin’ on six strings and a song.
i played in all the beer joints, every roadhouse near
and far
i cranked it out and left ‘em wanting more
but it wasn’t ‘til i walked up in an alabama bar
‘til i found the sound that i’d been lookin’ for
just a couple of long haired boys, but son, they sure
could play
we hit the road thinkin’ we could do no wrong
burning up that blacktop, in a beat up chevrolet
nothing but six strings and a song.
(chorus)
well, i’m a little bit gypsy, a little bit ramblin’ man
this life i live, it keeps me movin’ on
so, if your lookin’ to hold me, you better do it while
you can
‘cause i’m just here for six strings and a song.
we knocked ‘em out in houston, tore ‘em up in baton
rouge
papers said we sure put on a show
woke up in mississippi with matchin’ new tattoos
and just what it says, i still don’t know
livin’ on this highway ain’t no ordinary life
everywhere i’ve been, i call my home
truck stop cookin’ and cheap motels and flashin’ neon
lights
but, all i really need is six strings and a song.
(repeat chorus)
honey, i’m just here for six strings and a song.
