Growin' up, I was a little catholic boy
Just doin' what the good book said, What would Jesus do?
Then one day, I decided to rebel
And so I did
Rock 'n Roll became my salvation, My diamond in the rough
Oh boy, did I adore it so
Picked up this here guitar, Played Stairway to Heaven 'till my fingers bled
Damn Straight
Got a little crazy in my teenage years
Befriended the outcasts, the rockers
Got in a ton of fights over stupid shit
With those damn gangs, and those dumb kids
I really didn't much care for school
But I did it for momma
If it wasn't for angry Rock 'n Roll
Probably woulda cocked a cop, or popped a proct, or worse
Damn Straight
Honestly, it's nothin' a cold brew and a cigarette can't fix
Sometimes, life tries to get the best of ya
Don't ever let it, and don't you ever forget it
Now, I'm just livin' life in the fast lane
Tryin' to make ends meet and do good for myself
Sometimes, the big boss man like to get in my face and tell me what's what
That's about the time I look him dead in the eye and tell him
I got better things to do then get stuck with your ass all day
Damn Straight
