Emmylou Harris Rhythm Guitar Lyrics

Rhythm Guitar Lyrics

Well, she played around town till she opened the show

For a high rollin' singer up from Tupelo

He saw her in the lights and he gave her a hand

Next thing Sally knew she was one of the band



She said don't give me nothin' that I can't use

I got the rhythm and I don't need the blues

I don't wanna ride no shootin' star

Just wanna play on the rhythm guitar



She was the sweetest thing that he ever had seen

And he's had quite a few of them backstage queens

She was the prettiest thing that he ever had heard

Playin' rhythm guitar and singin' the third



She said don't give me nothin' that I can't use

I got the rhythm and I don't need the blues

I don't wanna ride no shootin' star

Just wanna play on the rhythm guitar



Well, Sally keeps her feet planted on the ground

She don't lose her head when the sun goes down

Everybody's out looking for romance

Sally just wants to get the people to dance



She said don't give me nothin' that I can't use

I got the rhythm and I don't need the blues

I don't wanna ride no shootin' star

Just wanna play on the rhythm guitar



She said don't give me nothin' that I can't use

I got the rhythm and I don't need the blues

I don't wanna ride no shootin' star

Just wanna play on the rhythm guitar
