My daddy was workin nine to five
When my momma was havin me
By the time I was half alive
I knew what I was gonna be
I left school and grew my hair
They didnt understand
They wanted me to be respected as
A doctor or a lawyer man
(but I had other plans)
Gonna be a rock n roll singer
Gonna be a rock n roll star
Gonna be a rock n roll singer
Im gonna be a rock n roll,
A rock n roll star
Well I worked real hard and bought myself
A rock n roll guitar
I gotta be on top some day
I wanna be a star
I can see my name in lights
And I can see the queue
I got the devil in my blood
Tellin me what to do
(and Im all ears)
Gonna be a rock n roll singer
Gonna be a rock n roll star
Gonna be a rock n roll singer
Im gonna be a rock n roll,
A rock n roll star
(I hear it pays well)
Well you can stick your nine to five livin
And your collar and your tie
And stick your moral standards
cause its all a dirty lie
You can stick your golden handshake
And you can stick your silly rules
And all the other shit
That they teach to kids in school
(cause I aint no fool)
Gonna be a rock n roll singer
Gonna be a rock n roll star
Gonna be a rock n roll singer
Im gonna be a rock n roll,
A rock n roll star
Gonna be a rock n roll singer
Gonna be a rock n roll star
Gonna be a rock n roll singer
Im gonna be a rock n roll,
A rock n roll star.
Yes I are!
