I can be a teacher and teach grade school.
I can be a doctor. That'll be cool!
They both sound great but they're just not right
For me. You see.
I'm gonna sing a little song and play my guitar.
'Cause when I grow up, I wanna be a rock n roll star.
A rock n roll star
A rock n roll star
I'm gonna sing a little song and play my guitar.
'Cause when I grow up, I wanna be a rock n roll star
I can be an engineer and drive a train.
(Choo, choo!)
I can be a pilot and fly a big plane.
(Whoo!)
They both sound great but they're just not right
For me.
(They're not right) You see.
(You see)
I'm gonna sing a little song and play my guitar.
'Cause when I grow up, I wanna be a rock n roll star.
A rock n roll star. A rock n roll star.
(He's gonna be a rock n roll star)
I'm gonna sing a little song and play my guitar.
'Cause when I grow up, I wanna be a rock n roll star.
Everybody's dancing to the beat.
Jump up on your feet, wherever you are.
'Cause now it's time for me to play on my, my, my, my, my guitar!
(Guitar solo)
A rock n roll star. A rock n roll star.
(He's gonna be a rock n roll star)
I'm gonna sing a little song and play my guitar.
'Cause when I grow up, I wanna be a rock n roll star.
