Lyrics
Never Gonna Get My Guitar - Pat McWilliams
Verse 1
I got a letter from a lawyer in the mail today
Said you're takin' me for all I got
After five long years of hell to pay
Baby I ain't got alot
You can run with the money and the furniture too
There's only one thing left I can say to you
Take the house, dog, car
But you're never gonna get my guitar
Verse 2
Well I was rockin' with my band way up in Timbuktu
When you took your aim from 'cross the room
You said "Won't you come over to my place baby
'Cause I really like the way you move"
I tell you one thing led to another one to it
Lightning struck me twice and before I knew it
Had a house, dog, car
But you never let me play my guitar
Chorus
She's got an hour glass figure that just won't quit
Been with me through everything
And did I happen to say she really loves to play
Man you should hear her sing
So if you're leavin' me honey you can have it all
All except my Marshall and black Les Paul
Take the house, dog, car but you're never gonna get my guitar
Solo Verse
Chorus
She's got an hour glass figure that just won't quit
Been with me through everything
And did I happen to say she really loves to play
Man you should hear her sing
So if you're leavin' me honey you can have it all
All except my Marshall and black Les Paul
Take the house, dog, car but you're never gonna get my guitar
Verse 3
Now I'm standing on the corner of Broadway and Opry
Strumming with my case open wide
I'm playin' this song that I wrote for you
Oh I never felt so alive
You know I never was one for all those shiny things
Dressing up fancy or diamond rings
You took the house, dog, car
But now I get to play my guitar...Ya
Chorus
She's got an hour glass figure that just won't quit
Been with me through everything
And did I happen to say she really loves to play
Man you should hear her sing
So if you're leavin' me honey you can have it all
All except my Marshall and black Les Paul
You took the house, dog, car but you're never gonna get my guitar
You got the house, dog, car but you 'aint never gonna get my guitar, Oh no
Took the house, dog, car but now I get to play my guitar
