if i hock my guitar - delbert mcclinton lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i came up from mississippi
with a guitar full of songs
thought i was really something
maybe i was wrong
got to make some money
got to pay my dues
’cause if i hock my guitar
how the h-ll am i supposed to play the blues?

[verse 2]
filled out an application
for sweeping up the streets
they said i didn’t qualify
i couldn’t disagree
i got to find something
something i can use
if i hock my guitar
aw, h-ll, man

[bridge]
i can do without the honey or the sugar for my tea
these days i can do without a lot of things
my shark-skin suit and my stacy adams shoes
all i really want to do is play my blues

[verse 3]
had my last can of tuna
with some cold green beans
not all that appetizing
but a man’s got to eat
up against the wall
nothing left to lose
if i hock my guitar
how the h-ll am i supposed play the blues?
