Lyrics
(Verse 1)
In nineteen fifty, Leo had a dream,
A new guitar with a brand new gleam.
The Broadcaster was born with a twang so bright,
A sound that echoed through the night.
(Chorus)
Broadcaster, you paved the way,
In the hands of legends, night and day.
With your bright, clear tones, you set the stage,
For the Telecaster, the next great age.
(Verse 2)
In fifty-one, the name was gone,
A simple Fender, it carried on.
Nocaster, it needed a new name,
A bridge to Telecaster, a new instrument.
(Verse 3)
In fifty-two, the Telecaster came along,
With a name inspired by TV,
it had a bright future in guitarist's hands.
A maple neck and a body so fine,
You crossed the borders, and space and time.
(Chorus)
Telecaster, you paved the way,
In the hands of legends, night and day.
With your bright, twangy and clear tones, you lead the charge,
A sound that echoes, wide and large.
(Verse 4)
From Muddy Waters to Springsteen's roar,
You’ve been the heart of music’s core.
In every riff and every song,
The Telecaster's spirit carries on.
(Bridge)
From honky-tonk bars to rock 'n' roll,
Your sound cuts deep, it touches the soul.
With a snap and bite, you made your mark on history,
And forevermore, you'll reign the same.
(Outro)
So here's to you, a twangy guitar so fine,
With a legacy that's ever new.
Telecaster, it's
The sound of freedom, let it ring.
With a snap and bite, you made your mark on history,
And forevermore, you'll reign the same,
sounding great through history, let's hear it, Telecaster!
(twangy guitar solo)
(Outro)
So here's to you, a twangy guitar so fine,
With a legacy that's ever new.
Telecaster, it's the sound of freedom, let it ring, we're making history today.
