My new purple shoes, bin' amazin' the people next door
And my rock 'n roll 45's, bin' enragin' the folks on the lower floor
I got a way with girls on my block
Try my best be a real individual
And when we go down to Smokies and rock
They line up like it's some kinda ritual
Oh give me a good guitar,
And you can say that my hair's a disgrace
Or just find me an open car,
I'll make the speed of light outta this place
I like the good things in life
But most of the best things ain't free
So the same situation just cuts like a knife
When you're young, and you're poor, and you're crazy
Oh give me a good guitar,
And you can say that my hair's a disgrace
Or just find me an open car,
I'll make the speed of light outta this place
