lyrics

I totaled my car
And got a new guitar
70's Silvertone hollow body style
She can’t take me nowhere
But my rockin chair
But she can show me a real good time

It started when I drove
Down to Asheboro
On an ugly February night
Recorded some tunes
With brother Wolfie Calhoun
On a rickety Gibson L-5

He put some cards in my hands
From the lowlands
Said I know you like to read
Take these tarot cards home
And feel the truth in your bones
They’re from a coven in New Orleans

On the rainy drive home
I dodged a doe in the road
But ended up hitting her beau
Haunted tarot cards flew
Every whichaway too
In a whirlin cloud around my banjo

So I totaled my car
And got a new guitar
70's Silvertone hollow body style
While she ain’t worth much
I feel the tone in my gut
And the way she rings out is divine

Totaled my car
And got a new guitar
70's Silvertone hollow body style
She can't take me nowhere
But my rockin chair
But she can show me a real good time
