Play Guitar Lyrics
Play Guitar(3:25)-John Mellencamp
LYRICS:
You may drive around your town in a brand new shiny car
Your face in the wind
Your haircut's in
And your friends think your bizarre
You may find a cushy job and I hope that you go far
But if you really want to taste some cool success
You better learn how to play guitar
CHORUS:
Play guitar--Play guitar
Play guitar--Play guitar
Play guitar--Play guitar
You got your eye on the cheerleader queen
You're walking her home from school
You know that she's only 17
She's gonna make you a fool
You know you can't touch that stuff without money or a brand new fast car
Let me give you some good advice young man
You better learn to play guitar
REPEAT CHORUS:
All women around the world who want a phony rock star who plays guitar
You can pump your iron and shine your shoes
And wear your hair just right
You go down on cruisin' street
Cause you wanna score tonight
Ra da ra da ra da da
And you really want to show your scars
Forget all about that macho shit
And learn how to play guitar
REPEAT CHORUS:
Your face in the wind
Your haircut's in
And your friends think your bizarre
You may find a cushy job and I hope that you go far
But if you really want to taste some cool success
You better learn how to play guitar
Play guitar--Play guitar
Play guitar--Play guitar
Play guitar--Play guitar
You're walking her home from school
You know that she's only 17
She's gonna make you a fool
You know you can't touch that stuff without money or a brand new fast car
Let me give you some good advice young man
You better learn to play guitar
REPEAT CHORUS:
You can pump your iron and shine your shoes
And wear your hair just right
You go down on cruisin' street
Cause you wanna score tonight
Ra da ra da ra da da
And you really want to show your scars
Forget all about that macho shit
And learn how to play guitar
REPEAT CHORUS:
