Eddie waited
Til' he finished high school
He went to 
HollywoodGot a tattoo
He met a girl out there
With a tattoo too
The future was wide open
They moved into a place
They both could afford
He found a night club
He could work at the door
She had a guitar
And she taught him some chords
The sky was the limit
Into the great, wide open
Under them skies of blue
Out in the great wide open
A rebel without a clue
The papers said"Ed always played from the heart"
He got an agent
And a roadie named 
BartThey made a record
And it went in the charts
The sky was the limit
His leather jacket
Had chains that would jingle
They both met movie stars
Partied and mingled
There A and 
R man said"I don't hear a single"
The future was wide open(Ohh)
Into the great wide open
Under them skies of blue
Out in the great wide open
A revel without a clue
Into the great wide open
Under them skies of blue
Into the great wide open
A revel without a clue(Ohh)
