I was such a pleasant child till rock and roll Took away my peace of mind and my self control Soon I was so sure that I was God's great gift to a generation I was surely bound to be a star
I bought myself a fender and a super twin Toughened up my vocal chords with Gordons gin Played around for months and never made the news Soon I had the rock and roll survival blues
I drove around from gig to gig in a rusty van Dreaming of a limousine and a livery man I simply couldn't understand why I was still the local standby When I was heaven made to be a star
The years went by and still I'm on the same old scene Never getting the publicity machine Now I knew what they meant about paying your dues 'Cos I had the rock and roll survival blues
The years went by the bands went by and I played on I could not understand where I was going wrong So I split from the music city And went to school in a northern backroom Just sat down and learned myself the blues
Then I made a record and now here I am I don't know how it happened but who gives a damn I only know I love you now you got the news
