Girls With Guitars - Wynonna Judd

She turned 15 with great expectations

Her older brother knew that somethin' was up He caught her going through his record collection

Lookin' at Hendrix like a lovesick pup

She begged and she pleaded 'till dad finally listened

He drove in the car down to Sears Roebuck

He bought her that guitar and that was the beginning

Now she’s down in the cellar with the amp turned up Girls with guitars

(Daddy's little angel)

Girls with guitars

(What's the world coming to)

Girls with guitars

(Mothers tend to worry about)

Girls with guitars

Well, Saturday nights she followed her brother

It was socks and stockings on the old gym floor

While everybody danced to garage band covers

She was checking out riffs and memorizing chords

She didn’t care at all for the football heroes

She didn’t even notice the basketball stars

Boys as a species were all a bunch of zeroes

Except for the ones that played that guitar

Girls with guitars

(She wasn’t any debutante)

Girls with guitars

(She didn’t go out for cheerleading)

Girls with guitars

(Boys are kind of nervous 'round)

Girls with guitars

She went off to college

She got her degree

Her parents breathed a sigh of great relief

Daddy’s thinking law school

Mother’s thinking medicine

Daughter’s thinking how she gonna break the news to them

Now there’s an old Chevy van just sitting in the driveway

Filled to the gills with all of her stuff

She cut a deal with her brother to drive it up the highway

She figures New York City is close enough

She gets the audition through a friend of a friend

Who’s checking out her legs, saying this will never work

She flips on her boogie and turns to the band

Gives a little grin and blows away the jerk

Girls with guitars

(Now everybody’s rockin')

Girls with guitars

(There ought to be a song about)

Girls with guitars

(There's no just no stopping those)

Girls with guitars
