Chuck Berry - Guitar Heroes lyrics

Oh, I can't go out with my friends on a Saturday night My guitar's like a woman and you know I've got to treat her right I've got to practice all night and day I've got to play the way my heroes play I've got to learn how to do it the Django way Oh my teacher says they're gonna' kick me outta' school ‘Cause I'm nothin' but a bebop, twang-headed rock and roll fool If I don't do my homework I've got to go But they can't teach me what I've got to know How do I make my guitar sound like Les Paul? I'll do the washing up later, let me practice if I choose But how does Chuck Berry make it bounce right out of those grooves? My girlfriend says she's gonna' dump me any day soon If I don't stop strummin' my guitar and get outta' my room If I don't get a life she's gonna' look elsewhere She says there's some normal boys out there I said, I'll catch you up when I've cracked this James Burton tune My Mum and Dad say they're gonna' put me out on the street I'm excommunicated 'til I get a job and get on my feet They say I'm not makin' a contribution But I'm still searchin' for a musical solution I've gotta' know how The Shadows get that beat Well, I played and I played until my fingers bled I shut out all the voices but the voice in my head Now I stand on the stage and I do my stuff And maybe it's good, but it's never good enough To tell you the truth, and I always hid it I still don't know how my heroes did it I still don't know how my heroes did it Guitar heroes Guitar heroes Guitar heroes Guitar heroes
