I never was a straight-lace, straight A student
|
teacher’s pet or child prodigy
|
I wasn’t gonna get rich throwin’ a football
|
It take too long to get a law degree.
|
|
So I sat down with momma and daddy
|
tried to talk some sense into my big head
|
But the best advice that I ever got
|
was from my sister’s rock star boyfriend.
|
|
Just get you a guitar and learn how to play
|
Cut up some jeans, come up with a name
|
When you’re living in a world that you dont understand
|
Find a few good buddies, start a band
|
Start a band, Start a band.
|
|
And all those girls that were too cool to talk to,
|
They’ll be waiting in the line out back
|
Might get your picture in the hometown paper
|
Maybe buy your momma that Cadillac.
|
|
|
Just get you a guitar and learn how to play
|
Cut up some jeans, come up with a name
|
When you’re living in a world that you don’t understand
|
Find a few good buddies, start a band.
|
|
Start a band, Scrape up some money, buy a van
|
Learn free bird and ramblin’ man
|
Never buy another beer again.
|

(Guitar)
|
|
Just get you a guitar and learn how to play
|
Grow out your hair, come up with a name
|
With a little bit of luck you’ll be packing the stands
|
Find a few good buddies, start a band.
|
|
No need to study, start a band
|
Call up some buddies man, start a band.
