"Talkin' Guitar" lyrics

"Talkin' Guitar"

I wonder how many of you fellows and girls ever heard a guitar talk. You ever hear a guitar talk? Well Um. If y'all listen real close I believe you're gonna agree with me that this guitar is gonna say some of the same things I say. It's a little song about some of the animals. The muskrat, the groundhog, and the jaybird, and the rooster, and the tomcat.

Muskrat muskrat what makes your head so slick?
I've been a'living in the water so long it's a wonder I ain't sick
I ain't sick, I ain't sick, I ain't sick, I ain't sick

What ya think?

Well groundhog groundhog why is your back so brown?
It's a wonder I don't smother to death from living in the ground
In the ground, in the ground, in the ground

Jaybird jaybird why do you fly so high?
I've been eating them acorns all my life and it's a wonder I don't die
I don't die, I don't die, I don't die

Now rooster rooster why is your claw so hard?
Been scratching in the barn lot all my life and it's a wonder I ain't tired
I ain't tired, I ain't tiredm I ain't tired

Well tomcat old tomcat why is your tail so long?
I've been a'cussing and fighting all my life and it's a wonder it ain't gone
It ain't gone, it ain't gone, it ain't gone
