High Life

Ripped jeans and a pair of chucks LA dreams, he ain't giving up With his guitar strapped on his back He'll play for a penny just to give it all back And his Parents call checking on in He don't wanna tell 'em that he's struggling Hey mom and dad, yeah i'm doing just fine You don't need to worry 'bout a thing tonight I'm on my way I'm gonna make it big some day And he went Knocking on every local bar in the city Playing everywhere he could And all it takes is the one night One bite, one chance One minute in the spotlight Then he's living the highlife High life in the city He don't wanna Wait tables he wants to play Music in his soul, pumping in his veins From 9-5 he's serving your plate From 5 and on he's staying out late Tryna Get a star on the boulevard Get a bill on the top charts He don't even care about the money in his hands He just wants a crowd of people in the stands Screaming his name As he plays loud on the big stage He went Knocking on every local bar in the city Playing everywhere he could And all it takes is the one night One bite, one chance One minute in the spotlight Then he's living the highlife High life in the city Oh, oh, oh c'mon! Late night, at a dive bar Man in the suit, and a cigar Said boy, you can play we should talk real soon Take my card, I got plans for you No more Knocking on every local bar in the city Playing anywhere he could And all it took was that one night One bite, One chance Nows he's Playing on every big stage in the country Living every dream he had And all it took was that one night One bite, one chance One minute in the spotlight Now he's living the high life High life in the city, Ya Oh And all it took was that one night, one bite one chance High life in the city
