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
