Well I built my son his own three string, he played it near all Christmas day<br /> He played it at night, and by next morning's light, he was still strumming away<br /> He tried a little bit of "slidin", I could hear the blues there and I smiled<br /> And someday his own son might say "dad can we talk?", and he'll say "son, just just listen, -just listen awhile<br /> <br /> Chorus<br /> A three string is not just for Christmas, a three string , it is for life<br /> It can touch on your soul, and make history roll<br /> You've got to cherish her just like a wife<br /> A three string is not just for Christmas, it will share your days and your nights<br /> It will make your hands want to play a song, that will put this old world to rights
