Now before I could walk I had a guitar in my hand
By the time I could talk I had my own band
Went on the road when I was eight years old
When I turned fifteen I was stealing the show
Money to burn and the girls were pretty

Get down on you baby because I ain't no rookie
I was put here to party and I was born to boogie
