专辑 | Booker's Guitar |
The guitar owned an' played | |
By the great Booker White | |
Found its way, by grace into my arms | |
He would call it “Hard Rock” | |
'Cos the body's made of steel | |
On th headstock he glued a heart-shaped charm | |
In a brown leather case, with green velvet linin' | |
It thrilled my soul to the core | |
Stuck on the side with old scotch tape | |
Was a list of the songs he's famous for | |
Chorus 1: | |
Booker's guitar's got a story to tell | |
Of hard-earned hope an' unshed tears | |
Booker's guitar rings like a bell | |
It's gonna keep on ringin' for a thousand years | |
The late greate Booker White | |
Sang straight from his heart | |
Everyone who heard him knows it's true | |
He'd spank that shiny guitar just like a drum | |
'Cross the Mississippi Delta, Europe too | |
Chorus 2: | |
Booker's guitar's got a story to tell | |
Of boxcars an' scars, moonshine an' beer | |
Booker's guitar rings like a bell | |
It's gonna keep on ringin' for a thousand years | |
Chorus 3: | |
Booker's guitar's got a story to tell | |
A story the world needs to hear | |
Booker's guitar rings like a bell | |
It's gonna keep on ringin' for a thousand years |
The guitar owned an' played | |
By the great Booker White | |
Found its way, by grace into my arms | |
He would call it " Hard Rock" | |
' Cos the body' s made of steel | |
On th headstock he glued a heartshaped charm | |
In a brown leather case, with green velvet linin' | |
