about

Straight up driving rock and roll.

lyrics

I walk into the room, my sleeve rolled up just right
Revealing my tattoo that says I rock and roll all night
Leather biker boots to tell the world that I’m bad ass
But trying to get my courage from the bottom of a glass

You see I figured that she’d only like the meanest cat in town
So I traded in my khakis, turned my smile into a frown
Did a million push-ups to put muscles on my arms
Everybody knows she can’t resist the bad boy charms

And I stand there leaning on the wall, feeling like a fool
I’ve realized too late, I’m not Johnny Cool…

Never had much luck with girls, being who I am
I changed my clothes, I changed my hair
But I’m the same old man….

And I stand there leaning on the wall, feeling like a fool
I’ve realized too late, I’m not Johnny Cool…

So silently I leave this place and head on back to home
Embarrassed of the shiny new Camaro that I own
Life’s the same, I’ll never change no matter what the care
Looking back my mama said “you are just who you are”

And I stand there leaning on the wall, feeling like a fool
I’ve realized too late, I’m not Johnny Cool…
