Guitar Man Upstairs Lyrics

Cover art for Guitar Man Upstairs lyrics by Drive-By Truckers

I appreciate the way the truckers write from others points of view as in this song and the Buford Stick stateline gang narrarator and Loaded Gun in the Closet couple. You just know young smart ass Cooley had the law called on him by a feeble old man quite a few times. I just wonder if Cooley speculated about why the old guy was so angry or he was told the story about his wife messing around with a quick walking guitar picker?
