Eddie Money - The Essential Eddie Money

Wanna Be a Rock 'n' Roll Star

Yeah ever since I was young I sing in my home
Those crazy songs I heard on the radio
Rock-n-roll melodies drove me frantically
Soon I would be tappin' on the table
My mother would jump and shout
She'd say what's that noise about
Finally turn that dial back to her station
But I knew right then I'd turn that dial back again and I
Knew right then I would make it
'Cause I wanna be a rocker
Wanna be a rocker
Wanna be a rock-n-roll star
Yes I wanna be a rocker
Wanna be a rocker
Wanna be a rock-n-roll star
When a DJ say, my music coming your way
Well I always waited
An' I'd be shakin' my hips and doin' the Elvis twist
Dreaming about the day I would make it
'Cause I wanna be a rocker
Wanna be a rocker
Wanna be a rock-n-roll star
Yeah I wanna be a rocker
Wanna be a rocker
Wanna be a rock-n-roll star
I wanna be a rock-n-roll star
I wanna drive a big black car
I wanna be a rock-n-roll star

My mother says I'm lazy, my girlfriend thinks I'm crazy
But I want to be a rock-n-roll star
'Cause I want a mansion on the hill
I want to burn thousand dollar bills
Wanna to be a rock-n-roll star
Every night before I go to sleep you know
I pray to God
Oh God, dear God
Me and the boys been workin' so very hard
Oh God
Dear God up in heaven
I been workin' so very hard
Now, now, now
If I worked in a hospital
I'd wanna be the doctor
If I was in the army whoa
I'd wanna be the general
If I worked on a garbage truck, hey
I'd wanna be the driver yeah
And since I'll been playin' for so many years
Tell you right now where I'm gonna play
Madison Square Garden
Alright let's give it to em' right now
Wanna be a rocker, wanna be a rocker
Wanna be a rock-n-roll star
Oh, I wanna be a rocker, wanna be a rocker
Wanna be a rock-n-roll star
Oh, I wanna be a rocker, wanna be a rocker
Wanna be a rock-n-roll star
Oh, I wanna be a rocker, wanna be a rocker
Wanna be a rock-n-roll star
