They wanted me to be respected As a doctor or a lawyer man
But I had other plans
Gonna be a rock 'n' roll singer
Gonna be a rock 'n' roll star
Gonna be a rock 'n' roll singer
I'm gonna be a rock 'n' roll a rock 'n' roll star
Well I worked real hard
And bought myself a rock 'n' roll guitar
I gotta be on top some day
I wanna be a star
I can see my name in lights
And I can see the queue
And I got the devil in my blood telling me What to do and I'm all ears
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
A rock 'n' roll star
I hear it pays well
Well you can stick your nine to five living And your collar and your tie
And stick your moral standards 'Cause it's all a dirty lie
You can stick your golden handshake
And you can stick your silly rules
And all the other ****
That they teach to kids in school
'Cause I ain't no fool
Gonna be a rock 'n' roll singer
I'm monna be a rock 'n' roll star
I'm Gonna be a rock 'n' roll singer
I'm gonna be a rock 'n' roll
A rock 'n' roll star Gonna be a rock 'n' roll singer
I'm gonna be a rock 'n' roll star
I'm gonna be a rock 'n' roll singer
I'm gonna be a rock 'n' roll
A rock 'n' roll star yes I are
