*: My new purple shoes
'been amazing the people next door
And my rock'n'roll 45's
'been enraging the folks on the lower floor
1. I got a way with the girls on my block
Try my best be a real individual
And when we go down to Smokies and rock
They line up like it's some kinda ritual
or just find an open car
I'll make the speed of light out of this place
2. I like the good things in life
But most of the best things ain't free
So the same situation just cuts like a knife
When you 're young and you're poor and you're crazy
