Lyrics

Ever since I was a little boy
I could sing with a clear, sweet voice
But I wanted to rock
And I wanted to roll
And wail with a whole lotta soul
I'd try so hard
Up on the stage
I would drink straight whiskey
But sound like lemonade
I just can't walk in blue suede shoes
I've been a frustrated pop singer
Since '72
You gotta hear this one
From the great Tom Waits
That's a damn fine fine song
But are you sure it's not David Gates
I sound so white
When I sing the blues
I've been a frustrated pop singer
Since '72
One big fat lie I've been telling myself
About what my life could be
That if I could sing like Otis Redding
My life would be complete
Can't strut like Mick
Hell, no one can
So get with a buddy
And start your own fine band
Play what you want
Sing how you feel
Just have fun
Have fun being real
I'm a lot slower and lower
And happier up on the stage
I pour a whole lot of whiskey
Into my lemonade
But I still sound so damn white
When I sing the blues
I've been a frustrated pop singer
Since '72
I've been a frustrated pop singer
Since '72
