Work That Guitar (Bobby Told Me)

Bobby told me, bobby told me…
You gotta work that guitar, yeah yeah yeah
Bobby told me, bobby told me…
You gotta work that guitar, you’ll shine like a star
Someone got in a fight like any other night
Rock, roll, and alcohol
Met a celebrity, he said five words to me
I guess that says it all
So simple, so clever, remember forever
It’s not hard to understand
This singer and dancer told me that the answer
Was in the palm of my hand
Bobby told me, bobby told me…
You gotta work that guitar, yeah yeah yeah
Bobby told me, bobby told me…
You gotta work that guitar, you’ll shine like a star
The wisdom of that line, some say it was a sign
A cosmic pass to me
I call it balderdash, inebriated trash
With no apology
Too long on the barstool, yeah yeah yeah, know it ain’t cool
Ego trips is not his thing
Then yelled with emphasis, «Yo! Teddy kick it like this!»
Everybody started to sing
Bobby told me, bobby told me…
You gotta work that guitar, yeah yeah yeah
Bobby told me, bobby told me…
You gotta work that guitar, you’ll shine like a star
Someone got in a fight like any other night
Rock, roll, and alcohol
Met a celebrity, he said five words to me
I guess that says it all. Yeah!
Bobby told me, bobby told me…
You gotta work that guitar, yeah yeah yeah
Bobby told me, bobby told me…
You gotta work that guitar, you’ll shine like a star
Work that guitar, shine like a star
