Makin' Some Noise

When I was a young boy

I was workin for the state

I wasnt makin much money

I was stayin out late

Go down at nighttime and

Play music in the bars

Take my breaks out underneath the stars

I was makin some noise

I was a workin boy up at the top of my voice

Sayin "look at me mama Im makin some noise"

I had to rock the boat, I had to shake the tree

To see whatd fall down on me

I thought "maybe I can make it if I never give in

I been down before, I aint goin down again"

Im makin some noise

I been a worried boy up at the top of my voice

Sayin "look at me mama Im makin some noise"

From across the canyon a guitar plays

Through an amplifier on a long delay

It was an ol d melody I recognized the song

I had an amplifier too, so I played along

Im makin some noise, Im still a working boy

Up at the top of my voice

Sayin "look at me mama Im makin some noise"

Im makin some noise, I been a long gone boy
