Brand New Guitar
(© by Ko-Do 2019)




I got a brand new guitar
'bout 50 years old
a genuine Yamaha
many copies sold

she's from the "lawsuit" era
some japanese have been sued
by Gibson and Fender
for she sounds just as good 

as a hummingbird
or as a dove
and she's well worth the money 
if you play her with love

she's a beauty to look at
with that turtle-shell pickguard
with her inlays of nacre
I don't miss a pick-up

she won't be on the road
just when I'm in the mood
I softly strum her at home
and she sounds just as good 

as a hummingbird
or as a dove
and she's well worth the money 
if you play her with love
