    Story Behind the Song
    Everybody who plays a guitar probably started
    with a cheap guitar...You gotta start somewhere to chase your dreams...

    Lyrics
    Well I was born on a hot summmer Forth-a-July
    Had to fight all my life probably 'till I die
    Well Papa told me when I was barely weaned
    Better get tough this world is mighty mean

    (Chorus)
    Said Sonny don't let this world getch'a down...
    Chase your dreams boy...'Till they plant
    you in the ground...
    He said Sonny don't listen to what people
    say...
    Take this old ten dollar guitar...
    And you learn to play...And I did

    Well I picked that guitar until I'd bleed
    I picked that guitar before I could read
    Yeah Papa he told me when I turned seventeen...
    Sonny hit the road...You start chasin'
    your dreams...
    (Chorus)

    Well that's my life the rest is history
    Been everywhere seen more than I can believe
    And I still thank my Papa each and every day
    For this ten dollar guitar his red haired
    boy could play...

    He said Sonny don't let this world get you down...
    Chase your dreams boy...'Till they plant you in the ground...
    Sonny don't listen to what the people say
    Take this old ten dollar and show them how you can play...And I DID!
