Here's more interesting things in songs and lyrics tied to John Cougar Mellencamp or about the 1980s in general.
You may drive around in your town
Ina brand new shiny car
Your face in the wind your haircut’s in
And your friends think you’re bizarre
You may find a cushy job and I hope that you go far
But if you really want to taste some cool success
You better learn to play guitar
Play guitar-play guitar
You got your eye on the cheerleader queen
You’re walkin’ her home from school
You know that she’s only seventeen
She’s gonna make you a fool
You know you can’t touch this stuff
Without money or a brand new car
Let me give you some good advice young man
You better learn to play guitar
All women around the world want a phony rock star
Who plays guitar
You can pump your iron and shine your shoes
And wear your hair just right
You go down out on cruisin’ street
‘Cause you want to score tonight
Ra da ra da ra da
And you really want to show your scars
Forget all about that macho shit
And learn how to play guitar
