A silly sort of nonsense song in a Texas swing mood, fueled by some jazzy Dixieland. It's basically about being stuck in a truckstop in Houston with no cash.

Artist picture
Mohave's unique Americana sound stems from indigenous folk music to many lands, then fanciful stories are added to the mix. Unusual instrumentation and a high-
Americana band Mohave takes its inspiration from the tiny town of Nowhere, Nevada, a former gold mining town with a population of 222. Legend has it that back in 1962 at the old El Rey Drive In Theater, Hippie, Dark and E-Z, three employees of the place, were called to the front to play music when the film projector broke one night. They soon became a regular part of each evening. In 1999, lead vocalist/Appalachian mountain dulcimerist Bing Futch was given the inspiration for the band while driving through the southwestern desert and Mohave was born.

Story behind the song
Literally, I wanted to buy this guitar in Houston, but didn't have the money. I still recall it was $32.99
Lyrics
Got a guitar in Houston for $32.99 didn't come with a case didn't come with a cord but Lord, that suits me fine CHORUS Ring-a-ding-ding ring-a-ding-ding ring-a-ding-ding, my name is Bing I can't play guitar and I can't sing picked up a mouth harp in Phoenix got it in the key of C it's just a little thing but it ain't got strings and that's all that matters to me CHORUS picked up a girlie in Vegas the girlie, she was mighty fine she was quite the little honey but she spent all my money and left me with nothing but a dime CHORUS
