Lonely Guitar Man
by 
Jimmy Dawkins 
recording of 1994 
from 
Blues And Pain (Wild Dog 9108) 
Now here I am playing the blues, and doing the very best that I can 
The whole world is talking down on me, but I know they just don't understand 
So I'm going on singing and playing the blues, I'm just a lonely guitar man 
Going on singing and playing my blues, 'cause I'm just a lonely guitar man 
When it comes down to money and other things, I don't have none 
But when I play my guitar, I have a whole lots of fun 
World down on me, I know they don't understand 
Going on singing and playing my blues, I'm just a lonely guitar man 
Going on singing and playing my blues, just a lonely guitar man 
Listen: lost the woman that I loved, I think she got another man 
I tried to do everything for her, but I know she don't understand 
Going on singing and playing the blues, oh, she don't understand 
Singing and playing my blues, 'cause I'm just a lonely guitar man 
'Cause I'm just a lonely guitar man
