Here I go ridin' up and down the road with a gang

I bought me a bus and I got me a four piece band

Tonight we played Chicago then travel North Ontario

But I got me a guitar and I'm gonna be a star

Well it's ninety degrees and the airconditioner is broke

This keeps up and we're all levelled a choke

I don't know of John had to go through this

But boy if he did he sure earned his I got me a guitar and I'm gonna be a star

I got me a guitar and I'm gonna be a star

Mighty to learn to play on my own lead guitar

Don't wanna tell jokes to try to be funny

Just sing a little song and make a little money

I got me a guitar and I'm gonna be a star

[ guitar ]

Played the show in Alabama but I was two hours late

And I wrecked the bus when I drove to the gate

The man didn't wanna give me all of my dough but ke said OK when I said oh no

I got me a guitar and I'm gonna be a star

Well we're runnin' late for a show in Abilene

The bus is hard and the boys are sure actin' mean

We're gonna get there bet you a dollar when we come on they'll scream and holler

I got me a guitar and I'm gonna be a star

Yeah  I got me a guitar...

Yeah  I got me a guitar and I'm gonna be a star

I got me a guitar and I'm gonna be a star
