Booker's Guitar Lyrics

	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
