Well I used to be a hotshot in my hometown
I was a real dead ringer—they would line them up I’d knock them down
I would put them right in there place-wipe that smile right off their face
With my six string stinger.. I would blow them right off the stage

When word got around I had a crowd in every bar
I would challenge all comers. All you have to do was bring your guitar
You play your licks then I’ll play mine
I’ll put my reputation on the line
That when our battle is through
The loser would be you
Got my stinger working all the time

Six Strings – That’s Stings... Everyone around
Six Strings… No one can knock me down

Well it happened so fast, as soon as I signed that line
They had me traveling around-- a fortune I was bound to find
People came from miles around .Just to watch me lay it down
With my six string stinger.. Best guitar player I was crowned

Six Stings—That Stings-- Voted best around
Six Strings – No one can knock me down

Another legend was born and with it came all that fame
It really revved me up when everybody knew my name
Back when time was on my side.. Girls around every night
One by one they would want to get stung
I had my stinger working over time

Six Strings ..That Stings.. every Gal in sight
Six strings. ..I sell out every night

Well it’s the same old story
When you’re seeking glory. they say
You’ll have your day in the sun.. But eventually you’ll fade away
And you’ll be paying for the price of fame
The day you bow your head in shame
And when your ego gets bruised
You have paided all your dues
But your stinger just aint the same

Six Strings That Stings I’m not what used to be
Six Strings …No one remembers me

Six string..That Stings..Thats the price of fame
Six strings..now no one knows my name
