Standard (EADGBE)

Hey pretty baby are you ready for me

It's your good rockin' daddy down from Tennessee

I'm just outta Austin bound for San Antone

with the radio blastin' and the bird dog on

Speed trap up ahead Selma town

but no local yokel's gonna shut me down

Cause me and my boys got this rig unwound

and we've come a thousand miles from the guitar town.

the lead bit is in G, played over the verse chord progression. Sounds great

on an electric with a bit of vibrato and reverb.

2 3

Nothin' ever happened round my home town

and I ain't the kind to just hang around

I heard someone callin' my name one day

so I followed that voice down the lost highway

Everybody told me you can't get far

on $37 and a Jap guitar

now I'm smokin into Texas with the hammer down

and a rockin' little combo from the guitar town.

Hey pretty baby don't you know it ain't my fault

Love to hear the steel belts hummin on the asphalt

Wake up in the middle of the night in a truck stop

Stumble in the restaurant, wonderin' why I don't stop

Well, I Gotta keep rockin while I still can

Got a two-pack habit and a motel tan

When my boots hit the boards I'm a brand new man

put my back to the risers and make my stand

Hey pretty baby won't you hold me tight

I'm loadin' up and rollin' out of here tonight

One of these days I'm gonna settle down

and I'll take you back with me to the guitar town

repeat riff and out.
