Old Maple Guitar
I got my first guitar when i turned 13
Daddy said here ya go son, now you can play like me
I got that honkytonk fever deep down in my bones
From that old maple guitar and a good country song
I remember the dry heat and the mojave sand
Just me and that guitar and some old marine friends
And about the only thing that got us through 29 palms
Was an old maple guitar and some good country songs
Lord that old maple guitar gots wood grains of gold
And that good country music just pours from your soul
And it'll echo in the air way till god calls us home
With an old maple guitar and a good country song
"take it up boys"
I was stranded in birmingham and down on my luck
Cause my wife took my money and then a bank took my truck
Oh but theres two things i still have that they better leave alone
Thats that old maple guitar and these good country songs
Lord that old maple guitar gots wood grains of gold
And that good country music it just pours out from the soul
And it'll echo in the air way till god calls me home
With an old maple guitar and a good country song
And a good ole hank williams country song
Vieja Guitarra de Arce
Conseguí mi primera guitarra cuando cumplí 13
Papá dijo aquí tienes hijo, ahora puedes tocar como yo
Tenía esa fiebre de honkytonk en lo más profundo de mis huesos
De esa vieja guitarra de arce y una buena canción country
Recuerdo el calor seco y la arena del Mojave
Solo yo y esa guitarra y algunos viejos amigos marinos
Y casi lo único que nos sacó adelante en 29 Palmas
Fue una vieja guitarra de arce y algunas buenas canciones country
Señor, esa vieja guitarra de arce tiene vetas de oro
Y esa buena música country simplemente brota de tu alma
Y resonará en el aire hasta que Dios nos llame a casa
Con una vieja guitarra de arce y una buena canción country
