[Intro]
Ooh...one, two
[Verse]
Mama, I guess you have stood and cursed
The day I found that old guitar
When uncle Harry died
The one we found in the boot of his old car
I remember how my little fingers blistered
When I tried to learn to play
I bet you never dreamed that old guitar
Would put me where I am today
Yes, it's been a lot of years
I guess it's been an interesting life
No, mam, I never found another woman
That I wanted for a wife
I guess the first time showed us
That I wasn't the domesticated kind
But I don't blame her for getting tired
Of living from a suitcase all the time
Yes, I know sometimes it looks
Like I've just simply thrown my life away
I'd just always figured that if I hung on
I'd make it big some day
I guess it takes a special breed
To live this way and think the way I think
But you'll be glad to hear that anymore
I ain't near as bad to drink
Ooh...one, two
