Lived a shepherd called Enrique Montesar
He would sit beneath the pine trees in the evening
Playing tunes upon his battered old guitar
He could hear a tune just once and play pitch perfect
No need to see the music written down
Then one day his old guitar was sadly broken
So he went to get a new one in the town
The salesman in the shop was on percentage
And he didn't want to sell him one that's cheap
He persuaded him to buy an axe electric
Upon which, he could serenade his sheep
So he strapped the new guitar across his shoulder
With an amplifier tucked beneath his arm
Looking like the cat that got himself the white stuff
As he trudged along the valley to his farm
Setting up the new guitar on the veranda
He rattled off some classics for a while
Then getting bored with all the Spanish music
Opted for a subtle change of style
Starting with Santana on to Clapton
Guns n Roses, ac/dc, then Hendrix
This shepherd boy was suddenly addicted
And every day he had to have his fix
Now you'll find him in the town most every evening
As he plays rock music to the loving crowd
From Nirvana through to kiss and Iron maiden
Rocking out the heavy metal, good and loud
