Esta noche se escucharán Perfectly Good Guitars

Arrojó una desde lo alto de las escaleras
Había preciosas mujeres a su alrededor
Todas se pusieron cachondas cuando destrozó aquella cosa
Pero a lo lejos en la oscuridad se oía alguien cantar...

Oh,me rompe el corazón ver a esas estrellas
Destrozando una guitarra perfectamente buena
No se quien se creen que son
Destrozando una guitarra perfectamente buena

Todo empezó en 1963
Su mamá no le compraría aquella Harmony roja nueva
Se conformó con una Sunbusrt rajada
Pero aún intenta aprovecharse de su mamá

Oh,me rompe el corazón ver a esas estrellas
Destrozando una guitarra perfectamente buena
No se quien se creen que son
Destrozando una guitarra perfectamente buena

Amó a aquella guitarra como si fuese su novia
Pero todo lo bueno tiene un final
Y ahora se sienta en su habitación todo el día
Silbando cada nota que tocó

Debería haber una ley sin fianza
Rompe una guitarra y a la carcel vas
Sin posibilidad de libertad condicional
No sales hasta que tengas algo de alma

Oh,me rompe el corazón ver a esas estrellas
Destrozando una guitarra perfectamente buena
No se quien se creen que son
Destrozando una guitarra perfectamente buena

A altas horas de la noche,al final del camino
Desearía tener aún esa guitarra para abrazarla
La acunaría como a un bebe en sus brazos
Jamás permitiría que la dañasen

Oh,me rompe el corazón ver a esas estrellas
Destrozando una guitarra perfectamente buena
No se quien se creen que son
Destrozando una guitarra perfectamente buena


He threw one down from the top of the stairs
Beautiful women were standing everywhere
They all got wet when he smashed that thing
But off in the dark you could hear somebody sing

Oh it breaks my heart to see those stars
Smashing a perfectly good guitar
I don't know who they think they are
Smashing a perfectly good guitar

It started back in 1963
His momma wouldn't buy him that new red harmony
He settled for a sunburst with a crack
But he's still trying to break his momma's back

Oh it breaks my heart to see those stars
Smashing a perfectly good guitar
I don't know who they think they are
Smashing a perfectly good guitar

He loved that guitar just like a girlfriend
But every good thing comes to an end
Now he just sits in his room all day
Whistling every note he ever played

There oughta be a law with no bail
Smash a guitar and you go to jail
With no chance for early parole
You don't get out untill you get some soul

Oh it breaks my heart to see those stars
Smashing a perfectly good guitar
I don't know who they think they are
Smashing a perfectly good guitar

Late at night the end of the road
He wished he still had the old guitar to hold
He'd rock it like a baby in his arms
Never let it come to any harm

Oh it breaks my heart to see those stars
Smashing a perfectly good guitar
I don't know who they think they are
Smashing a perfectly good
Good
Guitar
