I Just Wanna Play

Didn't just buy this old worn out guitar

And waltz up on the stage

And I ain't here to be no superstar

I just wanna play

So let me get lost in some old country song

Like "He Stopped Loving Her Today"

Or some old rocker I can start wailing on

I just wanna play

So kick it off boys and let me start singin' 'bout

The one girl I swore I couldn't live without

And how I let her get away

Let me sing you my life story

And the high hopes my mama had for me

Then we'll rock the house with the one about

The hell I love to raise

Yeah, I just wanna play

Well my daddy wasn't kidding when he said

I'd make a better living selling used cars

The only future in playing a smokey bar

Is playing another smokey bar

Said, "What you gonna do when you get out of school

And you need to get paid?"

I said, "I don't know dad, I just wanna play"

So kick it off boys and let me start singin' 'bout

The one girl I swore I couldn't live without

And how I let her get away

Let me sing you my life story

And the high hopes my mama had for me

Then we'll rock the house with the one about

The hell I love to raise

Yeah, I just wanna play

This is my getaway

And I've been working all day

I just wanna play

So kick it off boys and let me start singin' 'bout

The one girl I swore I couldn't live without

And how I let her get away

Let me sing you my life story

And the high hopes my mama had for me

Then we'll rock the house with the one about

The hell I love to raise

Yeah, I just wanna play

Yeah, I just wanna play
