Thread Name: Lyr Req: Don't Tell Mama (Brian Burns)
Subject: Don't tell mama I'm a guitar player
Had a request in 1984 that still haunts me. A fellow I met asked if I knew a song which he had once heard with the line or title "Don't tell mama I'm a guitar picker (or player), she thinks that I'm in jail." Several attempts at using my psychotic powers to write a new song around the idea succeeded - almost. Someone out there may know this one. If not, I'll keep writin'.
