Half an hour change your strings and tune up 
Sizing the room up 
Checking the bar 
Local girls unspoken conversation 
Misinformation 
Plays guitar 

They say Jonah he was swallowed by a whale 
But I say there's no truth to that tale 
I know Jonah 
He was swallowed by a song 

No one gives their dreams away too lightly 
They hold them tightly 
Warm against cold 
One more year of traveling 'round this circuit 
Then you can work it into gold 

They say Jonah he was swallowed by a whale 
But I say there's no truth to that tale 
I know Jonah 
He was swallowed by a song 

Here's to all the boys who came a-along 
Carrying soft guitars in cardboard cases 
All night long 
Do you wonder where those boys have gone? 
Do you wonder where those boys have gone?
