(INTRO)
one two three
aw, that's a beautiful thing
I gotta rock 'n roll band, electric guitar
a gig on Saturday night
I'm gonna rock, I'm gonna roll, I'm gonna sock, I'm gonna score
I do it 'til I get it right
but I'm makin' a livin', not a killin'
I'm makin' a livin', not a killin'
I'm makin' a livin', not a killin'
in a night club with a lowdown ceilin'
but it's hot, its smoky, and I'm bad
I got Rod on the bass and Bobby on drums
me on lead guitar
I made ninety seven dollars playin' seven nights a week
I barely make the payments on my car
but I'm makin' a livin', not a killin'
I'm makin' a livin', not a killin'
I'm makin' a livin', not a killin'
in a night club with a lowdown ceilin'
but it's hot, its smoky, and I'm bad
well, I ain't real rich like you know who
and you don't know my name
I ain't got a star in Hollywood
I ain't in the Country Hall of Fame - ah!
(HARP SOLO)
uh, huh
(GUITAR SOLO)
oh!
well, I ain't real rich like you know who
and you don't know my name
I ain't got a star in Hollywood
an' I ain't in the Branson Hall of Fame
I'm just a hard workin' guy with an ax in my hand
choppin' to beat the blues
I ain't never had a hit, so don't gimme no shit
step on my blue suede shoes
but I'm makin' a livin', not a killin'
I'm makin' a livin', not a killin'
I'm makin' a livin', not a killin'
in a night club with a lowdown ceilin'
well it's hot, and its smoky,
I'm not, not jokin'
when I say it's hot and it's smokin'
and I'm bad
