Start A Band

Start A Band - The Sheltons

I never was a straight-lace straight

A student teachers pet or child prodigy

I was'nt gonna get rich throwin a football

It take too long to get a law degree

So I sat down with momma and daddy

Tried to talk some sense into my big head

But the best advice that I ever got

Was from my sisters rock star boyfriend

Just get you a guitar and learn how to play

Cut up some jeans come up with a name

When you're living in a world

That you don't understand

Find a few good buddies start a band

Start a band Start a band

And all those girls that were too cool to talk to

They'll be waiting in the line out back

Might get your picture in the hometown paper

Maybe buy your momma that Cadillac

Just get you a guitar and learn how to play

Cut up some jeans come up with a name

When you're living in a world

That you don't understand

Find a few good buddies start a band

Start a band Scrape up some money buy a van

Learn free bird and ramblin man

Never buy another beer again

Just get you a guitar and learn how to play

Grow out your hair come up with a name

With a little bit of luck you'll be packing the stands

Find a few good buddies start a band

No need to study start a band

Call up some buddies man start a band
