Helen Hudson - One More Guitar Lyrics

A kaleidoscope crowd made a colorful line
Today between sunset and vine
Where you would be stars played songs on guitars
And castanet dancers kept time
A little girl shuffled in tiny tap shoes
And old man was singing the blues
And all of them came to win fortune and fame
And none of them thought they would lose

Well you're one more guitar in the line the man said
Just one more guitar move along
I was just one more guitar in that long lonely line
But the only one singing this song

Hundreds auditioned their talent for free
Hoping to be on TV
A new talent scout had drawn them all out
The beggar the black face and me
We all had a minute and some maybe two
To show what it was we could do
And the judges kept track of act after act
And they stopped us before we were through

Well you're one more guitar in the line the man said
Just one more guitar move along
I was just one more guitar in that long lonely line
But the only one singing this song

The judges all faced me each one in a chair
And I wondered just why I was there
And I couldn't tell if I'd even done well
By then it was too late to care

Well you're one more guitar in the line the man said
Just one more guitar move along
Well I'm one more guitar in this long lonely line
But I'm the only one singing this song
Yeah I'm the only one singing this song
