Album: Mardi Gras-1972 [Verse 1]
D
Playin' a pavilion on the outskirts of town,

                              A
Playin' where my roller derby rolls.

A
Just a part time music man, A nobody at the plant,

                                  D
I'm Tearin' Up The Country with a song.
[Verse 2]
D
Mom and Papa told me "Son, you gotta go to school;

                            A
Only way to make the fam'ly proud," Ha

A
I paid no attention, left my books at home,

                          D
Rather play my music real loud.

D
Ran into a dry spell, seemed nowhere to go.

                                     A
Good luck turned the tide, I'm on my way.

A
I remember loadin' big trucks when the summer was hot,

                                         D
You know I could still be there, but I'm not.

                                         D
You know I could still be there, but I'm not.

You know I could still be there, but I'm not.
