[Verse]
Another dawn's creepin' in
I guess it's my bedtime again
And some old farmer fills his cup
While I'm coming down from last night's buzz
Oooh ooooh
[Verse]
I close my eyes and frame by frame
I recall it all except her name
Sweet southern voice beggin' me to stay
Last week runs into yesterday
[Chorus]
It's the life and times of the guitar slinger
The day and the night of the good time bringer
Highs and lows of a sad song singer
I'm a simple man but it's complicated
When your soul's on fire and your heart feels faded
But I ain't complaining
[Verse]
I hear that diesel engine slow
It's my wake up call and it's time to load
I shuffle out into the cold
I try to shake the tired but it's in my bones
[Chorus]
It's the life and times of the guitar slinger
The day and the night of the good time bringer
Highs and lows of a sad song singer
I'm a simple man but it's complicated
When your soul's on fire and your heart feels faded
But I ain't complaining
[Verse]
I watch em line up in the streets
There's nothing left but the shell of me
Guitar sounds ringing in my head
I know I'm alive but I'm walking dead
I tried before to just walk away
But the music always makes me stay
The years just keep on rolling by
Another day turns into night
[Chorus]
It's the life and times of the guitar slinger
The day and the night of the good time bringer
Highs and lows of a sad song singer
I'm a simple man but it's complicated
When your soul's on fire and your heart feels faded
But I ain't complaining
Oooh yeah
Oooh yeah
Oooh yeah
Oooooooh yeah
