Lyrics
Bought myself an old guitar
practiced long and practiced hard
Got a gig at a local bar
Bought myself an old guitar
Got a gig on an ocean cruise
With a band playin' rock and blues
Lots of ladies lots of booze
Got a gig on an ocean cruise
Called that guitar Driftwood
My God, it sounded so good
Singin' yeah yeah yeah
Took that guitar everywhere
Round trip to where I started from
Round trip and I did it for a song
Got a gig in a big-name band oh
Playing spots across the land
Spent my time doing one night stands
Got a gig in a big-name band
Wrote a song on my guitar oh
Made it big and travelled far oh
Spent my time amongst the stars oh
Wrote a song on my guitar oh oh
Called that guitar Driftwood
OMG it sounded so good
Singin' yeah yeah yeah yeah
Took that guitar everywhere
Round trip, to where I started from
Round trip, and I did it for a song
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Came down hard and came down fast
Taxman came and kicked my ass
Sold my houses, sold my cars
All I had left was my old guitar
So I got a gig at a local bar
Some guy remembers who you are
Put some dollars in the jar
And I'll play my song on this old guitar
Called that guitar Driftwood
OMG it sounded so good
Singin' yeah yeah yeah yeah
Took that guitar everywhere
Round trip, to where I started from
Round trip, and I did it for a song
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
