All Americam Boy BOBBY BARE
INTRO: E A B E
E A
Gather 'round, cats, and I'll tell you a story
B E
about how to become an All American Boy.
E A B
Buy you a guitar and put it in tune.. you'll be rockin' and rollin' soon
A B E B7
Impressin' the girls pickin' hotlicks, and all that jazz.
E A B E
I bought me a guitar a year ago..learned how to play in a day or so..
A B
and all around town it was well understood that I was knockin' 'em out like Johnny B. Goode.
A B E B7
Hot licks, showin' off, ah, number one.
E A B
Well , I'd practice all day and up into the night..my papa's
E A
hair was turnin' white..cause he didn't like rock'n'roll.
B
He said, "You can stay, boy, but that's gotta go."
A B E B7
He's a square, he just didn't dig me at all.
E A B E
So, I took my guitar, picks and all, and bid farewell to my poor ole pa.
E A B
And I split for Memphis where they say, y'all.. them swingin'
A B E B7
cats are havin' a ball. Sessions, hot licks and all, they dig me.
E A
I was rockin' and boppin' and I's a gettin' the breaks.
B E
The girls all said that I had what it takes.
E A B
When up stepped a man with a big cigar..he said, "Come here,
cat..I'm gonnna make you a star.
A B E B7
I'll put you on Bandstand buy ya a Cadillac, sign here, kid."
E A B E
I signed my name and became a star, havin' a ball with my guitar.
E A B
Driving a big long Cadillac and fightin' the girls off ma back.
A B E B7
They just kept a'comin', screamin', yeah..they like it.
E A B
So, I'd pick my guitar with a great big grin and the money just
E
kept on pourin' in.
A B B B
But then one day my Uncle Sam, he said, (knock, knock, knock)
"Here I am..
A B E
Uncle Sam needs you, boy.. I'm-a gonna cut your hair off.
E E
"Ah-take this rifle, kid..gimme that guitar," yeah.
