lyrics

Playing my guitar for tips
Tips like hey why cant you play what I request

Cause I only know three chords and I don't listen to the radio
Been kicked out every band that I have been in so I'm solo
Maybe I should get a real job
but I'm finally making money doing something that I love

Making friends with my music
I get nervous when we make eye contact
Now I'm that guy at the party who sees a guitar and plays it
and everyone is annoyed but no one has the heart to say it
Maybe I should just give it up
but when I talk my words come out in song
and I can't make it stop

Rock n roll is all I know
It's forever will never die
Rock n roll is here to stay can't take it away
cause it's alive
Rock n roll is all I know
It's forever will never die
Rock n roll is here to stay can't take it away
cause it's alive

And if this isn't making it
then I don't really know what is
I'm having fun without all the bullshit
Living how I'm dreaming
and this one is for all the kids
still playing in their garages
the ones without the rich parents
that don't have to be famous to be happy
