hail hail rock and roll
come here son and let me help you sell your soul
sit right down and everything will be just fine
sign right here and it will all work out in time
sit right down and i will tell you about the plan
see i’m gonna make you 50 thousand dollars and i’ll only take 10 million
but did i mention i got a new mercedes benz
smile pretty be witty come meet your brand new friends
(chorus) everybody thinks that you’ll go far
you’re gonna be a rock and roll star
now you got a banker and a lawyer on 16th avenue
that’s the funny things they call you when you spend a couple extra years in school
they got big black cars and dollar signs in their eyes too
what is a boy like me to do
i got this guitar i play a little out of tune
but it makes no difference if i get all the right tattoos
and hey get a look at these cheekbones
who cares if mick taylor was ever even in the rolling stones
(chorus)
besides he didn’t even get that far
but me i’m gonna be a rock and roll star
yes i am so now we’re living happy underneath the sony tree
i got my big top 10 record on wkd?
Something or other bartender could i have another and another and another you’re lucky we’re even drinking in this bar
(chorus)
