The Guitar Man

Who draws the crowd and plays so loud
Baby, its the guitar man
Who’s gonna steal the show, you know
Baby, its the guitar man

He can make you love, he can make you cry
He will bring you down then he’ll get you high
Something keeps him going, miles and miles a day
To find another place to play

Night after night who treats you right
Baby, its the guitar man
Who’s on the radio, you go listen
To the guitar man

Then he comes to town and you see his face
And you think you might like to take his place
Something keeps him drifting miles and miles away
Searching for the songs to play

Then you listen to the music and you like to sing along
You want to get the meaning out of each and every song
Then you find yourself a message and some words to call
your own
And take them home

He can make you love, he can get you high
He will bring you down then he’ll make you cry
Something keeps him moving but no-one seems to know
What it is that makes him go

Then the lights begin to flicker and the sound is getting dim
The voice begins to falter and the crowds are getting thin
But he never seems to notice, he’s just got to find
another place to play
Either way got to play, either way got to play
