A Song With No Name

 A Song With No Name

 

Walking down Fifth Avenue wearing suit and tie                  

An uptown blues guitarist caught my eye                             

He jammed singing in a homemade microphone                   

I sat by his side and we both weren’t alone                           

 

He was playing a song with no name

Every riff unique nothing the same

Music is such a whimsical game

He was playing a song with no name

 

Well we talked about life and we both had a smile

His aged eyes had seen many a trial

I played with some of the best he did proclaim

I said “Let’s hear it again this song with no name”

 

He was playing a song with no name

Every riff unique nothing the same

Music is such a whimsical game

He was playing a song with no name

 

He was a hustler had his case out for spare change

Fingers were whirling his voice deep and strange

The muse was a demon that none dared to tame

The day passed in a flash in a song with no name

 

He was playing a song with no name

Every riff unique nothing the same

Music is such a whimsical game

He was playing a song with no name

 

Was he an angel or a demon to tame?

He was playing a song with no name

Perhaps he was really a man of fame

He was playing a song with no name

 

There was an artist drawing pictures for money

I said draw us handing her a twenty

The day was captured and I rose to depart

He sweetly smiled and said dear child “You touched my heart”

 

He was playing a song with no name

Every riff unique nothing the same

Music is such a whimsical game

He was playing a song with no name
