Current song lyrics
I happened to walk into a honky tonk one night down in New Orleans<br />Up above the bar hung a big guitar like none I'd ever seen<br />The neck was set with diamonds and though the strings were old<br />Like Kings of Sound they wound around six keys of solid gold<br />A man stepped up beside me his breath was strong with wine<br />He said you know that guitar once belonged to a mighty close pal of mine<br />He used to play it right here I forget the year around '45 I think<br />Ha I could tell you quite a story friend if you'd care to buy me a drink<br />[ ac.guitar ]<br />Well I possessed by every weakness that takes a man a fool<br />I bought a round he drank it down and then he rocked back on his stool<br />He said yeah I remember now it was '45 alright<br />He just returned from the Great War that's where he lost his sight <br />His buddies gave him that guitar at the time it was simple and plain <br />He added the gold and the diamonds as he played his way to fame<br />He was doing a show in Shreveport the night he received a call<br />To come appear on the Grand Ole Opry the greatest show at all<br />[ ac.guitar ]<br />I was driving him to Nashville it was cold and misting rain<br />The signals flashed and the whistle screamed I swear Mister I never saw that train<br />I heard the doctor tell him just after he used his knife<br />You're lucky son it was just your arm it could have been your life<br />But he died that night life just demanded more than he could give<br />I think he couldn've made it he just lost his will to live<br />But this world's loss is heaven's gain and tonight he's still a star<br />He plays with a band of angels that's my son's golden guitar
