Six Finger Guitar Picking Joe
Joe lit up a smoke by the neon sign flashing Jose's
And loved all the crowd chants from the old lane
He walked slowly back in the bar, squinted his eyes
Shot back a tequila, sucked on the lime
Chorus
Sticks the drummer sipped on a black label
Rick the bass player ate fries at the card table
Tim the fiddler puffed on a fat cigar
Crowd pounded boogie feet on the floor, yelling
We want six finger guitar picking Joe
We want six finger guitar picking Joe
Joe grew up hiding his hands from the people who'd laugh
But guitar had pushed Joe on a new path
He blazed his fingers into fame, captured the crowds
Now they were all cheering, noisy and proud
Chorus
Sticks the drummer sipped on a black label
Rick the bass player ate fries at the card table
Tim the fiddler puffed on a fat cigar
Crowd pounded boogie feet on the floor, yelling
We want six finger guitar picking Joe
We want six finger guitar picking Joe
Bridge
Joe felt alive playing gigs
Loved crowds and lightening licks
He'd raise his six fingered hands and wave
Touch music heaven up there on stage
Chorus
Sticks the drummer sipped on a black label
Rick the bass player ate fries at the card table
Tim the fiddler puffed on a fat cigar
Crowd pounded boogie feet on the floor, yelling
We want six finger guitar picking Joe
We want six finger guitar picking Joe
Crowd pounded boogie feet on the floor, yelling
We want six finger guitar picking Joe
We want six finger guitar picking Joe
Crowd pounded boogie feet on the floor, yelling
We want six finger guitar picking Joe
