I was just a boy when I learned how to play |
|
Dreaming of stardom and wealth and champagne |
|
I begged for advice, the skies all turned red |
|
The Devil appeared and here's what he said |
|
The planets are shifting beyond my control |
|
You ain't got the blues and you ain't got no soul |
|
And you're not the one who can save rock n roll |
|
Now that I'm older I'm drunk and I'm broke |
|
I sold my guitar for a gram of bad coke |
|
I begged for forgiveness, the Devil appeared |
|
He sat down beside me and said in my ear |
|
The planets are shifting beyond my control |
|
I'll give you the blues in exchange for your soul |
|
And you may be the the one who can save rock n roll |
|
I had to sell my soul to get it right |
|
I had to sell my soul to get myself back into the light |
|
And all the darkness running through my veins |
|
And all the darkness in my head is gonna drive me insane |
|
Satan took me underneath his wing |
|
He taught me how to play guitar and then he taught me to sing |
|
Now I'm living like a superstar |
|
I've got the drinks the drugs the money all the women and cars |
|
Yeah |
|
I'm living the life yeah I'm out of control |
|
I'm singing the blues cos I ain't got not soul |
|
And now I'm the one who can save rock n roll |
|
I'm living the life yeah I'm out of control |
|
I'm singing the blues cos I ain't got not soul |
|
And now I'm the one who can save rock n roll |
