Well, we were just another band out of Boston
|
On the road to try to make ends meet
|
Playin' all the bars, sleepin' in our cars
|
And we practiced right on out in the street
|
No, we didn't have much money
|
We barely made enough to survive
|
But when we got up on stage and got ready to play
|
People came alive.
|
* Rock and roll band
|
Everybody's waitin'
|
Gettin' crazy
|
Anticipating love and music
|
Play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
|
|
Dancin' in the streets of Hyannis
|
We were getting pretty good at the game
|
People stood in line and didn't seem to mind
|
You know everybody knew our name
|
Livin' on rock-n-roll music
|
Never worry 'bout the things we were missing
|
When we got up on the stage and got ready to play
|
Everybody'd listen.
|
|
Repeat *
|
|
Playin' for a week in Rhode Island
|
A man came to the stage one night
|
He smoked a big cigar
|
Drove a Cadillac car
|
And said, "Boys, I think this bands outta-sight
|
Sign a record company contract
|
You know I've got great expectations
|
When I hear you on the car radio
|
You're goin' to be a sensation!"
|
|
Repeat *
