Three Pick-Ups

I delivered papers in the

Early morning rain - Oh what a pain

Getting up and going to school after that

But I saved my pennies and

I saved my dimes

Bought a Fender Stratocaster

On time

Had the best guitar around

And that's a fact

It had three pick-ups

And a tremolo bar

A hard-shell case designed for a star

I couldn't play much

It didn't matter to me

I thought I was Duane Eddy

Music wasn't much back then

I can still remember when

The boys asked me to join their band

People liked my guitar

So I stood in the light

And it seemed that after every night

It was me who always got

The biggest hand
