charlie waller & randall hylton - tennessee flat top box lyrics
[verse 1]
in a little cabaret
in a south texas border town
sat a boy and his guitar
and the people came from miles around
[chorus]
and all the girls from there to austin
were slippin’ away from home and a+puttin’ jewelry in hock
to take a trip to go and visit
that little dark+haired boy who played a tennessee flat+top box
and he would play
[acoustic guitar solo]
[verse 2]
well, he couldn’t ride or wrangle
and he never cared to make a dime
just give him his guitar
and he’d be happy all the time
[chorus]
and all the girls from nine to ninety
wеre snappin’ fingers, tappin’ toes, and a+bеggin’ him, “don’t stop!”
hypnotized and fascinated
by the little dark+haired boy who played a tennessee flat+top box
and he would play
[acoustic guitar solo]
[verse 3]
then, one day, he was gone
and no one ever saw him ’round
he’d vanished like the breeze
and they forgot him in the little town
[chorus]
but all the girls still dreamed about him
and they hung around the cabaret until the doors were locked
then, one day, on the hit parade
was the little dark+haired boy who played a tennessee flat+top box
and he would play
[acoustic guitar solo]
