[Verse] Nine years old I picked up my guitar Took my first lesson But it didn't go very far The strings were sharp They made my fingers bleed I knew right from the start What I would need [Chorus] I need a capo I take it everywhere I go It isn't just for show I need that capo I got me a capo I knew I'd never let it go Me and my capo I just can't say no [Verse] And now I'm twenty three Strumming chords with my right hand Sitting right here next to me Is the drummer in the band We fell in love on a date He put a ring on my left hand But he's really much to late He doesn't seem to understand [Chorus] I need a capo I take it everywhere I go It isn't just for show I need that capo I got me a capo I knew I'd never let it go Me and my capo I just can't say no [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] It's not just my fingers That's not all that's weak It's my heart Love is what I seek This drummer boy can't see A woman has her needs I don't want him to leave But I still need to be free [Chorus] I need a capo I take it everywhere I go It isn't just for show I need that capo I got me a capo I knew I'd never let it go Me and my capo I just can't say no [Outro] I need a capo I take it everywhere I go It isn't just for show I need that capo I got me a capo I knew I'd never let it go Me and my capo I just can't say no
