(verse)
I CAN DO ANYTHING, ON THE GUITAR MAN
I CAN PLAY YOU A SONG THAT YOU CAN'T STAND, AND ALL YOU CAN DO IS GET UP AND WALK AWAY
BUT AS YOU TAKE A HIT AND YOU SIP YOUR BEER, I CAN'T HELP BUT NOTICE THAT YOU'RE STILL HERE
DEEPLY INVOLVED IN EVERY WORD, I SAY

(chorus)
I'LL SING YOU A SONG, I'M THE GUITAR MAN
JUST PASS ME A BEER OR A DOOBIE OR TWO
I'LL PLAY ALL NIGHT LONG, IF I THINK I CAN
YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER, I'M DRUNKER THAN YOU

(verse)
WELL IT WON'T BE LONG TILL YOU'RE FAST ASLEEP, PARTIES BEEN BUSTED BY THE HEAT
AND I'M THE ONLY ONE WHO SURVIVES
WELL THEY LOOK IN MY EYES AND THEY QUESTION ME, ONE EVEN ASKED TO SEE MY I.D.
I COULDN'T REMEMBER SO I JUST LIED, I SAID OFFICER...

(chorus)
I'LL SING YOU SOME SONGS, I'M THE GUITAR MAN
JUST PASS ME A BEER OR A DOOBIE OR TWO
I'LL PLAY ALL NIGHT LONG, IF I THINK I CAN
YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER, I'M DRUNKER THAN YOU

(verse)
WELL THE COPS WEREN'T SO BAD, THEY LEFT IT AT THAT, ONE EVEN PUT A TIP IN MY HAT
SLOWLY THEY PROCEEDED OUT THE DOOR
WELL I PUT DOWN MY GUITAR AND I MIXED ME A DRINK, EVEN TOOK OUT A LITTLE TIME TO THINK
AND THEN I SLOWLY I LAID DOWN ON THE FLOOR

(chorus)
I'LL SING THEM SOME SONGS, I'M THE GUITAR MAN
JUST PASS ME A BEER OR A DOOBIE OR TWO
I'LL PLAY ALL NIGHT LONG, CAUSE I SAID I CAN,
YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER, I'M DRUNKER THAN YOU

(verse)
I CAN DO ANYTHING, ON THE GUITAR MAN
I CAN PLAY YOU A SONG THAT YOU CAN'T STAND AND ALL YOU CAN DO IS GET UP AND WALK AWAY
BUT AS YOU TAKE A HIT AND YOU SIP MY BEER
I CAN'T HELP BUT NOTICE THAT YOU'RE STILL HERE, DEEPLY INVOLVED IN EVERY - WORD - I - SAY,
THAT'S RIGHT, I'M THE GUITAR MAN
