The World's Most Famous Man
Out on the street since the early age of four
my mamma was gone, she didn’t love me no more
But then I met a man with fingers of gold
that danced around the fret board like a dry leaf in the cold
And he told me, son just pick up that guitar
give it one good strum and you'll find out exactly who you are
Ever since that day that the rhythm found its feet
I've been singing songs of hope and love and life out on the street
CHORUS:
But you don't know, you don't know, no, you don't know who I am
I know I'm just a young boy, but one day I’ll be a man
But you don't know, you don't know, no, you don't know who I am
I'll go down in history as the world's most famous man
I'll turn into an addict at any given chance
if it could give me all the love and all the romance
Of a life that only fortunes the fame
oh, I’ll jump right on that runaway train
Sex and drugs and rock and roll
anything to save my mortal soul
All I ask for is one chance to shine
Oh, all I ask for is one chance to shine
and live out these great dreams of mine
CHORUS
Put me on the cover of your magazine
make me your one hit wonder, make me your Don McClean
Champagne and whisky or even cocaine
whatever puts me on your road to fame
You can quiz me on the ones that came before
You can ask me anything to get my foot in the door
But I’ll kick it open and storm on through
I'll do anything to get my music to you
CHORUS
