Verse 1
Db7
Well, I quit my job down at the car wash
Left my mama a goodbye note
By sundown I'd left Kingston
With my guitar under my coat
Gb7
I hitchhiked all the way down to Memphis
Got a room at the YMCA
I went huntin' them nights
Just lookin' for a place to play
would set 'em on fire
Db7
Ab7
to hire a guitar man
Verse 2
to death down in Memphis
I run outta money and luck
So I bought me a ride down to Macon,
Georgia on a overloaded poultry truck
Started pickin' out some o' them all night bars
Makin' music on my guitar
Ab7
I got the same old story at them all night piers
We don't need a guitar man, son
Chorus 1
Roamed a thousand miles of track
At a club they call Big Jack's
So I took my guitar and I sat in
Eb7
I showed 'em what a band would sound like

Show 'em, son

Verse 3
Db7
So if you ever take a trip down to the ocean
Find yourself down around Mobile
Oh, make it on out to a club called Jack's
If you got a little time to kill
You'll wind up out on his dance floor
Db7
Diggin' the finest little five piece group
Up and down the Gulf of Mexico
Ab7
Guess who's leadin' that five-piece band
Interlude 2
it's that swingin' little guitar
