My Daddy was workin´ nine to five
When my Momma was havin´ me
By the time I was half alive
I knew what I was gonna be
I left school and grew my hair
They didn´t understand
They wanted me to be respected as
A doctor or a lawyer man
(But I had other plans)


Gonna be a rock ´n´ roll singer
Gonna be a rock ´n´ roll star
Gonna be a rock ´n´ roll singer
I´m gonna be a rock ´n´ roll
A rock ´n´ roll star

Well I worked real hard and bought myself
A rock ´n´ roll guitar
I gotta be on top some day
I wanna be a star
I can see my name in lights
And I can see the queue
I got the devil in my blood
Tellin´ me what to do
(And I´m all ears)

Gonna be a rock ´n´ roll singer
Gonna be a rock ´n´ roll star
Gonna be a rock ´n´ roll singer
I´m gonna be a rock ´n´ roll
A rock ´n´ roll star
(I hear it pays well)

Well you can stick your nine to five livin´
And your collar and your tie
And stick your moral standards
´Cause it´s all a dirty lie
You can stick your golden handshake
And you can stick your silly rules
And all the other shit
That they teach to kids in school
(´Cause I ain´t no fool)

Gonna be a rock ´n´ roll singer
Gonna be a rock ´n´ roll star
Gonna be a rock ´n´ roll singer
I´m gonna be a rock ´n´ roll
A rock ´n´ roll star

Gonna be a rock ´n´ roll singer
Gonna be a rock ´n´ roll star
Gonna be a rock ´n´ roll singer
I´m gonna be a rock ´n´ roll
A rock ´n´ roll star
