The following is a true story. Only the names have been changed. To protect the guilty -. Well I left my job in my home town. And I headed for the smoke. Got a rock 'n' roll band and a fast right hand. Gonna get to the top. Nothing's gonna stop us no nothing. So if you've got the money we've got the sound. You put it up and we'll put it down. If you got the dollar we got the song. Just wanna boogie woogie all night long. Yeh boogie. I got holes in my shoes. I got holes in my teeth. I got holes in my socks. I can't get no sleep. I'm trying to make a million. And I got patches on the patches. On my old blue jeans. Well they used to be blue. When they used to be new. When they used to be clean. But I've got a Momma who's a hummer. [and I've got a mama who's a hummer]. Who's keeping me alive [[just] keepin' me alive]. While I'm in the band doing drinking with the boys. [while I'm doin' drinkin. She's working 9 to 5 [with the boys]. [She] knows her place that woman. Just you wait -. One of these days see me driving round town. In my rock 'n' Rolls Royce with the sun roof down. My bottle of booze. No summer time blues. Shouting out "Look at me". In my rock 'n' roll voice. Ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire. (repeat). "Hey hello Howard how you doin' my next door. neighbour?". "Oh yea... Get your fuckin' jumbo jet off my airport"
