That Hot And Blue Guitar 

Well, I was ten when I first heard that famous sound 
It went right to my heart, and it followed me around 
That rhythm started pumpin’ through my veins 
And I knew my life would never be the same 

That deep voice sounded just like coming home 
And those records meant I’d never be alone 
I understood that people came from near and far 
Just to hear that hot and blue guitar 

Well, I bought ‘bout every record I could find 
I couldn’t get that famous sound out of my mind 
I couldn’t get enough, I had to have ‘em all 
And I pinned some empty covers on my wall 

Then came the day the man would come to town 
I bought a ticket, I would hear that famous sound 
The place was packed, ‘cause people came from near and far 
Just to hear that hot and blue guitar 

I remember when I finally met the man 
He greeted me backstage and shook my hand 
He looked me in the eye and smiled at me 
And I felt a weakness in my knees 

I drove from town to town to see his show 
Those miles I drove wore out my car, you know 
I must’ve had a hundred tapes in that old car 
Filled back to back with hot and blue guitar 

I saw many of his shows over the years 
He made me smile, and he made me drown in tears 
And I’d still give every penny I could find 
Just to hear ole John R. sing “I Walk The Line” 

Well, the years have come and gone, he passed away 
But I tell you that there hasn’t been a day 
I haven’t listened to this great SUN Records star 
Who played that hot and blue guitar
