Lyrics Guitarman [Single Version] - The Jesus and Mary Chain
Well,
I
quit
my
job
down
at
the
carwash
Left
my
mother
a
goodbye
note
By
sundown
I
left
Kingston
with
my
guitar
under
my
coat
Hitchhiked
all
the
way
down
to
Memphis
Got
a
room
at
the
YMCA
For
the
next
three
weeks
went
hunting
at
nights
Just
looking
for
a
place
to
play
Well,
I
thought
my
picking
would
set
them
on
fire
But
nobody
wanted
to
hire
a
guitar
man
Well,
I
nearly
got
starved
to
death
down
in
Memphis
I
run
out
of
money
and
luck
So
I
bummed
me
a
ride
down
to
Mecon,
Georgia
On
an
overloaded
poultry
truck
Thumbed
on
down
to
Panama
City
Started
picking
at
some
of
them
all
night
bars
Hoping
I
could
make
myself
a
dollar
making
music
on
my
guitar
Got
the
same
old
story
the
moment
I'd
appear
"There
ain't
room
around
here
for
a
guitar
man
Don't
need
a
guitar
man,
son"
So
I
slept
in
the
hobo
jungles
I
roamed
thousand
miles
of
track
'Til
I
find
myself
in
Mobile,
Alabama
At
a
club
they
call
Big
Jacks
A
little
four
piece
band
was
jamming
So
I
took
my
guitar
and
I
sat
in
I
showed
'em
what
a
band
would
sound
like
With
a
swinging
little
guitar
man
Show
'em
son
If
you
ever
take
a
trip
down
to
the
ocean
Find
yourself
down
around
Mobile
Make
it
on
out
to
a
club
called
Jacks
If
you
got
a
little
time
to
kill
Just
follow
that
crowd
of
people
You'll
wind
up
out
on
his
dance
floor
Digging
the
finest
little
five
piece
group
Up
and
down
the
Gulf
of
Mexico
Guess
who's
leading
that
five-piece
band?
Wouldn't
you
know
it's
that
swinging
little
guitar
man
"He
was
a
degenerate's
degenerate"
