歌曲歌詞
I was in a band we were
Scheduled to appear
At a little roadhouse
Called the Get Down Here
A cinder block building
With a hand-painted sign
Hunkered down straddling
The county lines
When the crowd rolled in
They were a motley mix
There were truckers bikers
Drifters and locals
From the sticks
Each one meaner than
A cougar in a cage
And the biggest one swaggered
Right up to the stage
He said We've heard
Everybody from David Allen Coe
To Chuck Berry singing
Go Johnny go go
Got an autographed picture
Of Elvis on the shelf
So tell me boy what you
Got to say for yourself
I let the guitar do the
Talking and the whole
Place started rocking
My fingertips weren't stopping
And that big old dude
Started bopping
No need to fuss stop
The squalkin'
Just let the guitar do
The talking
She was over in a corner
With a chesire smile
Best looking thing seventeen miles
Sittin' there making
My cold beer sweat
I figure my chances
Were a long shot bet
Because a woman like that's
Heard every line
And I never have been the
Silver-tongue kind
But I knew I had me one good
Chance of getting that girl to dance
So I cranked up my amp
And let the guitar
Do the talking
And the whole place
Started rocking
My fingertips weren't stopping
And that dirty little
Thing started bopping
No need to fuss and stop your
Squalkin' and let the
Guitar do the talking
And in a world of too many words
Sometimes your point
Is hard to get heard
But I think I figured out
A little way of getting mine through
