about

I'm fairly sure that this song was also done by Lou Miami and the Kozmetix.
(If you have info on this please let me know.)
Tom Martel also played bass in that band at the time their version of this track was done.

lyrics

Guitar by Tom Martel

I am gonna buy a guitar today. I'm gonna take it home and play. I am gonna buy a guitar today. Hear me when I say, I don't need you. Today. I don't need your love no more. I am gonna flying away alone. And you can't hold me down. I am gonna fall deep inside of myself. Even you couldn't touch me there. Cause I'm nowhere to be found. You wouldn't know where to look anyhow. I am gonna buy a pony car today, and I will drive away. I am gonna buy my Mustang today. Bye bye baby. I'm goin' away. I might see you around someday
