written by Walker, Jerry Jeff Well I found her in a pawnshop somewhere up in Ohio where I guess some rounder came up short and he had to let her go cost me ninety dollars but shes worth much more by far cause I never had a better friend than that old beat up guitar She didnt look like too much just a Roy Smeck Stage Deluxe but a lady has never faired as well whod traveled through so much She picked up the name of Angel in an old New Orleans bar where a drunken poet drew one on the top of that guitar old Babe Stovally marked her scratched the song right out of his heart seems everyone who used her scarred that old beat up guitar She didnt look like too much just a Roy Smeck Stage Deluxe but a lady has never faired as well whod traveled through so much She traveled with me always through the alleys and bars songs I sang and friends I knew were part of that guitar at nights it was my pillow sleeping underneath the stars day and night I stayed alive with that old beat up guitar She didnt look like too much just a Roy Smeck Stage Deluxe but a lady has never faired as well whod traveled through so much Yeah a ramblin man he has his troubles hanging on to all that he owns after many years of travelin that guitar fell by the road then one night in New Mexico I stumbled into this bar Angel laid there smilin on that old beat up guitar Well I took her from the wall ran my hands across the scars played again the old songs that were written on that guitar friends Ive loved and lost many nights inside of a bar came back so clearly singing with that old beat up guitatr She didnt look like too much just a Roy Smeck Stage Deluxe but a lady has never faired as well whod traveled through so much Now she travels with me always through the alleys and bars songs I sing and friends I know they are a part of that guitar at nights it is my pillow sleeping underneath the stars day and night I stayed alive with that old beat up guitar She didnt look like too much just a Roy Smeck Stage Deluxe but a lady has never faired as well whod traveled through so much
