Steel Guitar (LP Version) - Danny O'Keefe

Carole once told me she dreamed she was pretty

And lived in a very cool part of the city

With a man who came home every evening at six

And begged her to play him country licks

On her steel guitar on her steel guitar

Her pad been a welder during the war

And he played country music every night till four

With some drugstore cowboys who could pick and grin

And if you let it all out they'd bring it back in on a steel guitar

They'd go from hell to breakfast on a steel guitar

He taught his daughter to drink whiskey like water

And go for the man who had something to offer

He said to her baby you can go very far

With an easy laugh and a steel guitar a steel guitar

You don't need a man you got a steel guitar

Jack was a rambler he'd been around nashville

He knew all the tricks and he sure wasn't bashful

When he sas carole playing steel guitar

He said to her mama we could sure go far on steel guitar

We could make it together on your steel guitar

Make a short story longer they had a couple of children

Jack went to war and the enemy killed him

Carole got his pension and a purple heart

And every night till two she tears them apart

With her steel guitar

Says you don't need a man with a steel guitar

She plays country music and she's paid up her dues

You ought drop in if you got nothing to lose

She can steal a guitar steal a heart

And they come every night to get torn apart by a steel guitar

She's got a sho bud special it's a steel guitar

With an easy laugh and a steel guitar a steel guitar

Says you don't need a man with a steel guitar

We could make it together on your steel guitar

She's got a sho bud special it's a steel guitar

When he sas carole playing steel guitar
