Play Guitar Lyrics


John Mellencamp Play Guitar


You may drive around your town
in a brand new shiny car
Your face in the wind and
your haircut's in and
your friends think your bizzare

You may find a cushy job
and I hope that you go far
But if you really want to
taste some cool success
Better learn to play guitar

(chorus)
Play guitar (play guitar)
Play guitar, oh yeah
Play guitar (play guitar)
Play guitar, oh yeah

Well you got your eyes
on a cheerleader queen
And your walking her
home from school
You know that she's only seventeen
but she knows that
she can cheat a fool

You know you can't touch that stuff
without money or a brand new car
Let me give you some
good advice young man
You better learn to play guitar

(chorus)

All women around the world
want a phony rock star
who plays guitar

(instrumental)

Well you pump your iron
and shine your shoes
and wear your hair just right
You go down on a cruisin' strip
cause you wanna score tonight
You's gotta really ripped physique
and you really wanna show your scars
Forget all about that macho shit
and learn how to play guitar

(chorus)
