Gather round cats and I`ll tell you a story
`Bout how to become an all American boy
Buy you a guitar and put it in tune
You`ll be a rockin` and a rollin` soon
Impressin` the girls pickin` hot licks and all that jazz.

Ah, I bought me a guitar a year ago
Learned how to play in a day or so
And all around town it was well understood
That I was knockin` `em out like Johnny B. Goode
Hot licks showin` off, ah, number one.

Yeah, I practiced all day and up into the night
My papa`s hair was turnin` white
`Cause he didn`t like rock`n roll
He said, ``You can stay boy but that`s gotta go.``
He`s a square he just didn`t dig me at all.

So I took my guitar picks and all
Bid farewell to my poor ol` pa
Split for Memphis where they say y`all
Them swingin` cats are havin` a ball
Sessions hot licks and all, they dig me.

I was rockin` and a boppin` and I was gettin` the breaks
The girls all said that I have what it takes
When up stepped a man with big cigar
He said, ``Come here cat, I`m gonna make you a star.
I`ll put you on bandstand, buy you a Cadillac, sign here kid.``

I signed my name and became a star, havin` a ball with my guitar
Drivin` a big long Cadillac and fightin` the girls off of my back
They just kept a comin`, a screamin`, yeah they liked it.

So I picked my guitar with a great big grin
And the money just kept on pourin` in
But then one day my Uncle Sam he said, (bang bang) ``Here I am.
Uncle Sam needs you boy, I`m a gonna cut your hair off.
Ah, take this rifle kid, give me that guitar, yeah...``
