All My Wild Oats
This Old Guitar
This Old Guitar
by Jim Matt

Baby I know you're thinking it's wrong
Every night I'm writing new songs
And when I go to sing them to you
You sit around just feeling blue

Baby I know you think I'm a dreamer
A day dreaming song writing screamer
But one day I'm gonna prove it to you

One day I'm gonna get a good dollar
For this old guitar
You're gonna see my name up in the lights

Baby I'm gonna go far
One day I'm gonna get a good dollar for
This old guitar

Baby I know you've had a hard time
You say my life's like a nursery rhyme
You say I left you out of all of the plans I drew
If that were true would I be here with you?

I wish I could make you a believer
Don't want the choice, of lover or leaver
Cause one day I'm gonna prove that these
Words are true


One day I'm gonna get a good dollar
For this old guitar
You're gonna see my name up in the lights

Baby I'm gonna go far
One day I'm gonna get a good dollar for
This old guitar

(Play that guitar boy)

It's been a hard life
And you've been thinking
I just don't care
It's been a long road
But I can make it, I swear
Baby I swear

One day I'm gonna get a good dollar
For this old guitar
You're gonna see my name up in the lights

Baby I'm gonna go far
One day I'm gonna get a good dollar for
This old guitar

Oh yeah one day I'm gonna get a good dollar for
This old guitar

My old guitar, oh yeah
This old guitar, this old guitar
