Ever since I was young I sing in my home
Those crazy songs I heard on the radio
Rock n roll melodies drove me frantically
Soon I would be tappin' on the table
My mother would jump and shout, she'd say what's that noise about
Finally turn that dial back to her station
But I knew right then I'd turn that dial back again and I
knew right then I would make it.
Cause I wanna be a rocker
Wanna be a rocker
Wanna be a rock n roll star
Yes I wanna be a rocker
Wanna be a rocker
Wanna be a rock n roll star
When the DJ say
My music coming your way, I always waited
So I'd be shaking my hips and doing the Elvis twist,
Dreaming about the day I would make it
Cause I wanna be a rocker
Wanna be a rocker
Wanna be a rock n roll star
Yeah I wanna be a rocker
Wanna be a rocker
Wanna be a rock n roll star
I wanna be a rock n roll star
I wanna drive a big black car
I wanna be a rock n roll star
My mother says I'm lazy
My girlfriend thinks I'm crazy but I want to be a rock n roll star
Cause I want a mansion on the hill
I want to burn thousand dollar bills, wanna to be a rock n roll star
Every night before I go to sleep you know
I pray to God
Oh God, dear God,
Me and the boys been working so very hard
Oh God
Dear God up in heaven
I been working
So very hard.
Now, now, now
If I worked in a hospital
I wanna be the doctor
If I was in the army whoa'
I'd wanna be the general
If I worked on a garbage truck well
I wanna be the driver yeah
And since I'll been playing for so many years tell you right now, where I'm gonna play
Madison square garden, alright let's give it to em' right now!
Oh I wanna be a rocker, wanna be a rocker, wanna be a rock n roll star
Oh I wanna be a rocker, wanna be a rocker, wanna be a rock n roll star
Oh I wanna be a rocker, wanna be a rocker, wanna be a rock n roll star
Oh I wanna be a rocker, wanna be a rocker, wanna be a rock n roll star
