Will Hoge - Rock And Roll Star Lyrics

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
Won't you stand right here and it will all work out in time

So sit right down and I'll tell you about the plan
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

Everybody thinks that you'll go far
You're gonna be a rock and roll star

Now you got a banker and a lawyer down on 16th Avenue
That's the funny things they call you
If you spend a couple extra years in school
And they got big black cars and dollar signs in their eyes too
What is a boy like me to do?

I got this guitar that I play a little out of tune
But it don't make no difference if I get all the right tattoos
Hey, get a look at these cheekbones
Who cares if Mick Taylor was ever even in the Rolling Stones

Besides he didn't even get very far
But me, I'm gonna be, rock and roll star
Yes, I am

So now we're living happy underneath the sony tree
And 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 [Incomprehensible] in this bar

Because I'm gonna be, rock and roll star
Yes, I am, yes, I am
Gonna be a rock and roll star
