Lyrics

The Black Guitar (Words and music by Edward Davis)

Adrian, you’ve got to keep on rockin’
Even though the rest us had to stop.
Old Chris and I will be hollerin’ for you
On your long, long climb up to the top.

He’s got a black guitar that’s full of the blues,
An old black guitar, so full of the blues.

Keep on playin’ that guitar
And don’t forget the ones you’re playin’ for.
You’ve got to remember just who you are
And keep on playin’ that black guitar.

There are those who paid their dues
While they’re sleepin’ in their momma’s womb.
They come screamin’ into a world so full of doom.
Let that black guitar scream, too.

He’s got a black guitar that’s full of the blues,
An old black guitar, so full of the blues.

Keep on playin’ that guitar,
And don’t forget the ones you’re playin’ for.
You’ve got to remember just who you are
And keep on playin’ that black guitar.

He’s got a black guitar that’s full of the blues,
An old black guitar so full of the blues.
