Only A Boy               Rod Stewart [Intro]             [Verse] "Stewart boy you’ll never be much cause you’re too busy acting the fool." Thank you Sir for them few kind words on my last day of school. Oh but my mama said I could be a success if I’d only get myself out of bed. Words of wisdom but I wasn’t listening I had plans in my head. [Chorus] Only a boy trying it on coming so strong restless to roam. Only a boy silly and proud reckless and loud impressing the crowd. Only a boy [Verse] Rock and roll was in my brains Eddie Cochrane running through my veins. Skintight trousers in council houses the unemployment exchange. The blues I played were Mississippi made and every friday night I’d fall in love. Football fields and teenage pills nothing’s enough. [Chorus] Only a boy dressing to kill passion to spill hand in the till. Only a boy slipping it in thin as a pin chasing a dream. Only a boy Only a boy Ooh! [Solo]             [Verse] Oh them Dukes of freedom I used to believe them and all their rebellious vows. The critics the cynics who never understood it where are they now? And all the wondering and the stumbling that goes hand in hand with change. The yearning the earning was it all part of learning or am I still the same? [Chorus] Only a boy laughing aloud quick as a shot nobody can stop Only a boy plans of his own leaving his home knows where he’s going. Only a boy Only a boy Only a boy Only a boy [Outro]
