Lyrics
Rock Down The Line
By Steve Burdette & Randy Bishop (ASCAP)
©2015, Rokit Music
Makin' a fool of myself
Drinkin' some good top shelf
I'm with a country band
But I am a rock 'n roll man
Down here on music row
With my guitar in tow
When I land me a deal
I'll be the download you steal
CHORUS:
'Cause I am bidin' my time
Waitin' on that spotlight to shine
Playin' all these honky tonks
But I'm gonna rock down the line
Rock down the line
Wanna play guitar
Like a big rock star
Make the whole crowd scream
Just like in all of my dreams
And when I am up on that stage
Well, I won't act my age
When you're playin' rock n' roll
That's the way it should be
BRIDGE:
I paid my respects to George
And bought me a pick-up Ford
Gave a whirl to a cute little country girl
I drink beer with all of my friends
Till I can't remember when
We all rocked out to some Led Zeppelin
Gonna rock it up
And strut my stuff
Make a hit every time
Fans will be waitin' in line
Gonna write those rock and roll songs
And it won't take me long
Till I'm the talk of Nashville
You know I will
