Re: usage of colloquialism in lyrics hinders comprehension
Well, judging from the two lines preceding that one: Well my friends are gone and my hair is grey I ache in the places where I used to play To put it bluntly, I would guess he's talking about not being able to have an erection.

I was wondering if he modified his guitars that way himself or if he bought a kind that already has a strap button. I ...
