Luke's Guitar (Twang, Twang)

Twang Twang-adiddle dang a diddle danga twanga twanga twang twanga diddle dang
Another dang twang another dang twang another dang twang...

I've been married now for a year or more and my old guitar hangs by the door;
That woman of mine says "hock that Luke" 'cause your momma dear needs a brand new suit;
Well I hocked my watch, I sold my dog, I pawned the gasoline stove;
I hocked my ring and everything, just to keep that woman in clothes;
I even pawned da cat, I hocked my boots and I sold the family car;
But that woman of mine will be a hundred and nine before I hock my old guitar!

Twang twanga rahhhgtwanga twanga twang twanga twang twanga diddle dang
Another dang twang and another dang twang another dang twang...

She went out one day last week I guess and she won't come back until I say "yes";
In answer to her "hock that Luke", my old guitar for a swimmin' suit;
That'll be the day when I pawn my heart like I pawned the gasoline stove;
I hocked my ring and everything, just to keep that woman in clothes;
I even pawned da cat, I hocked my boots and I sold the family car;
But that woman of mine will be old and blind before I hock my old guitar!

Twang twanga rahhhgtwanga twanga twang twanga twang twang diddle dang
Another dang twang and another dang twang another dang twang...

If she don't come back, I won't be sore 'cause I don't give a hoot about her no more!
A man gets tired of "hock that Luke!" That woman of mine's too bad to shoot!
Well I hocked my watch, I sold my dog, I pawned the gasoline stove;
I hocked my ring and everything just to keep that woman in clothes;
I even pawned da cat, I hocked my boots and I sold the family car;
But that woman of mine'll be in a box of pine before I hock my old guitar!

Twang twanga rahhhgtwanga twanga twang twanga twang twang diddle dang
Another dang twang and another dang twang another dang twang...
This song ain't over yet;
Still another dang twang and another dang twang and another dang twang and another dang twang...
