Six String Wooden Friend

Here we are once again

My six string wooden friend

You’re everything that I’m all about

You’ve been battered and abused

You’ve had to pay so many dues

I’m half a man when I put you down

So let’s play another song

Let’s drag it on too long

And bring a tear again to my eye

You can’t make me want to stop

You’re the only friend I’ve got

And you’ll never live to hear me say, goodbye

I’ve never heard you shy away

From anything I want to play

Your honest always rings true

Through you, you amplify my soul

You do, by giving rock and roll

A melody that I can sing to

I know that I’ve been rough on you

I’ve beaten you so out of tune

That in return you make my fingers bleed

So before I lay you down to rest

You prove that you are the very best

By bringing out the very best in me

So let’s play another song

Let’s drag it on too long

And bring a tear again to my eye

You can’t make me want to stop

You’re the only friend I’ve got

And you’ll never live to hear me say, goodbye

Here we are once again

My six string wooden friend

You’re everything that I’m all about
