My new purple shoes
Bin amazin´ the people next door
And my rock´n´roll forty fives
Bin enragin´ the folks on the lower floor

I got a way with the girls on my block
Try my best to be a real individual
And when we go down to smokies and rock
They line up like it´s some kind of 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 outa this place

I like the good things in life
But most of the best things ain´t free
It´s the same situation just cuts like a knife
When you´re young and you´re poor and you´re crazy
Young 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 outa this place
