My new purple shoes
Been amazin' the people next door
And my rock 'n roll 45's
Been enragin' the folks
on the lower floor
I've got a way with the girls
on my block
Try my best be a real individual
And when we go down to
Smokies and rock
They line up like
it's some kind of ritual
Ooh 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 outta this place
I like the good things in life
But most of the best things
ain't free
And this same situation
just cuts like a knife
When you're young and
you're poor and you're crazy
Ooh 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 outta this place
