Waking up at 5 a.m. just to brush my teeth
Back out on the highway again for a couple weeks
Breakfast at the stations we pass along the road
And all of this from that song I wrote
But…
I couldn’t handle living in a van
Or sharing a room with my whole band
Or never seeing my baby for awhile
Always burning my eyes under big stage lights
And singing the same song every night
I’d rather drive a back seat in this bar
Oh man, I’d be hopeless as a star
Used to want my name lit up there in reds and blues
See my face in new hotels on the evening news
I tried to make it happen whеn I was seventeen
But sometimеs things are better off as dreams
Cause…
I couldn’t handle living in a van
Or sharing a room with my whole band
Or never seeing my baby for awhile
Always burning my eyes under big stage lights
And singing the same song every night
I’d rather drive a back seat in this bar
Oh man, I’d be hopeless as a star
All of the screaming fans
Holding up their hands
As their favourite band
Plays their song again
I guess I could handle living in a van
And sharing a room with my whole band
And seeing my baby smiling from the stalls
Always burning my eyes under big stage lights
And singing the same song every night
I never dreamed that I would get this far
Oh man, it feels good to be a star
‘Thank you! Thank you very much!
Woo! See you next time
Have a safe drive home
B-bye!’
