Verse 2
Now be (E5) fore I could walk,
I had a guitar in my hand
By the time I could talk, I had my own band
I (A5) went on the road when I was eight years old
When I (E5) turned fifteen, I was stealing the show
(B5) Money to burn and the girls were pretty
It didn't (E5) take me long to learn
that I was born to boogie

When (E6) I was eighteen, I went to Hollywood
I met Elvis, and Marilyn and Johnny B. Goode
Got my (A6) guitar painted
to dance in the California sun
A (E6) red Cadillac having too much fun
(D major) (A major) (E6) (E6)
Verse 4
Now we were (E6) playing them halls
and jammin' them
And we moved it on over to M.G.M.
They said, (E6) "This is the boy
we've been telling you about"
He lit a cigar and he stuck his hand out

Verse 5
He said, (F sharp6) "Son, have we got a deal for you
I'm gonna make you a star,

Verse 6
Well, my name (E6) is Bocephus,
I drink a whiskey by the gallon
And I never back down,
and I love a good challenge
(A6) What I do now is what I did then
I (E6) like to get down with all my rowdy friends
(D major) (A major) (E6) (E6)
Verse 7
Now (E6) I can be sweet and I can be mean
I still got my hat and I still wear my jeans
My (A6) shades are chrome, my guitar's steel
If (E6) you think I won't then believe me I will
Get down (B6) on you, baby, 'cause I ain't no rookie
I was (E6) put here to party
