Tenement Funster

Intro:      My new purple shoes ’bin amazing the people next door And my rock’n’roll 45’s      ’bin enraging the folks on the lower floor                         I got a way  with the girls on my block Tryin’ my best be a real individual And when we go down to Smokies and rock They line up like it’s some kinda ritual Chorus: Ooh give me a good guitar and you can say that my hair’s a disgrace or just buy me an open car I’ll make the speed of light out of this place I like the good things in life But most of the best things ain’t free This same situation just cuts like a knife When you ’re young and you’re poor and you’re crazy Chorus: Ooh give me a good guitar and you can say that my hair’s a disgrace or just buy me an open car I’ll make the speed of light out of this place
