Red House Painter - Rock n' Roll Singer lyrics

(Young, Young, Scott)

My Daddy worked from nine to five

Momma stayed home with 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

I´m gonna be a rock 'n' roll singer

I´m gonna be a rock 'n' roll star

Gonna be a rock 'n' roll singer

I'm gonna be a rock 'n' roll star

As I grew up I worked real hard

So I could buy a guitar

I wanted to be on the top one day

I wanted to be a star

I could see my name in lights

and I could can see the queue

I had the devil in my blood

Tellin' me what to do

I´m gonna be a rock 'n' roll singer

I´m gonna be a rock 'n' roll star

Gonna be a rock 'n' roll singer

I'm gonna be a rock 'n' roll star
