Bill Anderson
Miscellaneous
Golden Guitar (1966)
I happen to wonder in a honky-tonk one night down in New Orleans
Up above the bar hung a big guitar like none I ever seen
The neck was set with diamonds and though the strings were old
Like kings of sound they wound around six keys of solid gold

A man stepped up beside me his breath was strong with wine
He said you know that guitar once belonged to a mighty close pal of mine
He used to play it right here I forget the year around 45 I think
I could tell you quite a story friend if youd care to buy me a drink

Well possessed by every weakness that makes a man a fool
I bought a round he drank it down and then he rocked back on his stool
He said yeah I remember now it was 45 all right
Hed just returned from the Great War thats where he lost his sight

His buddies gave him that guitar at the time it was simple and plain
He added the gold and the diamonds as he gained his fame
He was doing a show in Shreveport the night he received the call
To come up here on the Grand Old Opry the greatest show of all

I was driving him to Nashville it was cold and misting rain
The signals flashed and the whistles screamed but I swear mister I never saw that train
I heard the doctor tell him just after hed used his knife
Youre lucky son it was just your arm it could have been your life

But he died that nightlife just demanded more than he could give
I think he could have made it he just lost his will to live
But this worlds loss is heavens gain and tonight hes still a star
Hes playing with a band of angels thats my sons golden guitar
