Luke's Guitar

Twang Twang-adiddle dang a diddle danga twanga twanga twang twanga diddle dang

Another dang twang another dang twang another dang twang...

I've been married now for a year or more and my old guitar hangs by the door.

That woman of mine says "hock that Luke" cause your momma dear needs a brand new suit.

Well I hocked my watch & I sold my dog & I pawned the gasoline stove

I hocked my ring and everything to keep that woman in clothes

I even pawned a cat & I hocked my boots and I sold the family car-

But that woman of mine will be 109 before I hock my old guitar

Chorus:

Twang twanga diddle-

She went out one day last week I guess & she won't come back until I say yes-

In answer to her "hock that Luke" My old guitar for a swimmin suit-

That'll be the day when I pawn my heart like I pawned the gasoline stove

I hocked my ring and everything just to keep that woman in clothes

I even pawned a cat and I hocked my boots and I sold the family car-

But that woman of mine will be old and blind before I hock my old guitar...

Chorus:

If she don't come back I won't be sore cuz I don't give a hoot about her no more

A man gets tire of "hock that Luke!" That woman of mine's too bad to shoot.

Chorus:

Well I hocked my watch and I sold my dog & I pawned the gasoline stove

I hocked my ring and everything just to keep that woman in clothes-

I even pawned a cat & I hocked my boots and I sold the family car-

But that woman of mine'll be in a box of pine before I hock my old guitar

Twang twanga diddle rahhhgtwanga twanga twang twanga diddle dang

Another dang twang and another dang twang

This song ain't over yet-

Still another dang twang and another dang twangand another dang twang....
