Dalton & the Sheriffs - The Strummer

I spent my 30s with a pick in my hand
And my toes on the edge of an old linoleum stage
And they've spilled beer on to the floor of this here bar
Since we were all still loyal to the Queen

A strummer's all I am
Hell, it's all I'll ever be
So choose your own pejorative
'Cause they're all fine with me
These folks don't come in here
For guitar licks and fancy jeans
They come to sing along
'cause it's cheaper than therapy
Until the end
A strummer I will remain
Until the end
A strummer I will remain

Learning not to fight the melodies that come to me
Learned it's better not to mince my chords
When everyone around me, they're all seeing dollar signs
I just love that all you folks know all the words

A strummer's all I am
Hell, it's all I'll ever be
So choose your own pejorative
'Cause they're all fine with me
These folks don't come in here
For guitar licks and fancy jeans
They come to sing along
'cause it's cheaper than therapy
Until the end
A strummer I will remain
Until the end
A strummer I will remain

If you believe what I believe
About the power of song
Sung loud amongst your friends
If you believe that the lyrics of a song
Can somehow fit where you are broken
And make you whole again

Amen, my friend
Amen, my friend
Amen, my friend
Amen, Amen, Amen

Music ain't a business
Until you say it's so and I know
And someday all this might fade away
But if it does, I know exactly where I will go
Find me on the edge of an old linoleum stage

A strummer's all I am
Hell, it's all I'll ever be
So choose your own pejorative
'Cause they're all fine with me
These folks don't come in here
For guitar licks and fancy jeans
They come to sing along
'cause it's cheaper than therapy
Until the end
A strummer I will remain
Until the end
A strummer I will remain
