Well, we were just another band out of Boston |
|
On the road to try to make ends meet |
|
Playin' all the bars, sleepin' in our cars |
|
And we practiced right on out in the street |
|
No, we didn't have much money |
|
We barely made enough to survive |
|
But when we got up on stage and got ready to play |
|
People came alive. |
|
Rock and roll band |
|
Everybody's waitin' |
|
Gettin' crazy |
|
Anticipating love and music |
|
Play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah |
|
Dancin' in the streets of Hyannis |
|
We were getting pretty good at the game |
|
People stood in line and didn't seem to mind |
|
You know everybody knew our name |
|
Livin' on rock-n-roll music |
|
Never worry 'bout the things we were missing |
|
When we got up on the stage and got ready to play |
|
Everybody'd listen. |
|
Rock and roll band |
|
Everybody's waitin' |
|
Gettin' crazy |
|
Anticipating love and music |
|
Play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah |
|
Playin' for a week in Rhode Island |
|
A man came to the stage one night |
|
He smoked a big cigar |
|
Drove a Cadillac car |
|
And said, 'Boys, I think this bands outta-sight |
|
Sign a record company contract |
|
You know I've got great expectations |
|
When I hear you on the car radio |
|
You're goin' to be a sensation!' |
|
Rock and roll band |
|
Everybody's waitin' |
|
Gettin' crazy |
|
Anticipating love and music |
|
Play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah |
