Here we are once again
My six string wooden friend
You’re everything that I’m all about
You’ve been battered and abused
You’ve had to pay so many dues
I’m half a man when I put you down

So let’s play another song
Let’s drag it on too long
And bring a tear again to my eye
You can’t make me want to stop
You’re the only friend I’ve got
And you’ll never live to hear me say, goodbye

I’ve never heard you shy away
From anything I want to play
Your honest always rings true
Through you, you amplify my soul
You do, by giving rock and roll
A melody that I can sing to

I know that I’ve been rough on you
I’ve beaten you so out of tune
That in return you make my fingers bleed
So before I lay you down to rest
You prove that you are the very best
By bringing out the very best in me

So let’s play another song
Let’s drag it on too long
And bring a tear again to my eye
You can’t make me want to stop
You’re the only friend I’ve got
And you’ll never live to hear me say, goodbye

Here we are once again
My six string wooden friend
You’re everything that I’m all about
