(Burton Cummings)
She might have been a nice girl
If she hadn't had a draggy mother
She might have been a good chick
If she hadn't had a rotten father
She might have played the right hunch
If she hadn't been so narrow-minded
She might have had a whole bunch
If she hadn't been so far behind it
Oh does it hurt when you know you can't play it the way that your beau knows
Oh does it hurt when you know you can't say it the way that your beau knows
And you know that that's the way that the show goes
And you know it really has to go on.
She drank the army's red wine
But she never found a moment's pleasure
She smelled the salty sea brine
But she never found the buried treasure
She might have played the chords right
But the song was never meant for singing
She might have really broke loose
But she never made it past the clinging
I can see that it hurts when you know you can't play it the way that your beau knows
I can see that it hurts when you know you can't say it the way that your beau knows
And you know that that's the way that the show goes
And you know it really has to go on.
The Guess Who is a legendary Canadian rock band formed in Winnipeg, Manitoba, in 1968. Considered one of the first Canadian rock bands to achieve international success while remaining in their home country, they marked an era in their nation's music. Initially produced by Jack Richardson, they were the first to top the American charts with a Canadian rock song. The group went through several phases and lineup changes over the years, but its distinctive sound, characterized by bluesy riffs, catchy melodies, and introspective lyrics, remained constant. Among their most famous songs are "American Woman", "These Eyes", and "Clap for the Wolfman". Their 1970 album "American Woman" achieved international success, solidifying the band's position as one of the most influential in Canadian rock.
