I delivered papers in the |
|
Early morning rain - Oh what a pain |
|
Getting up and going to school after that |
|
But I saved my pennies and |
|
I saved my dimes |
|
Bought a Fender Stratocaster |
|
On time |
|
Had the best guitar around |
|
And that's a fact |
|
It had three pick-ups |
|
And a tremolo bar |
|
A hard-shell case designed for a star |
|
I couldn't play much |
|
It didn't matter to me |
|
I thought I was Duane Eddy |
|
Music wasn't much back then |
|
I can still remember when |
|
The boys asked me to join their band |
|
People liked my guitar |
|
So I stood in the light |
|
And it seemed that after every night |
|
It was me who always got |
|
The biggest hand |
