One of the Boys - Huey Lewis & The News

Well, I remember way back when

I must’ve been 9 or 10

When I saw my very first band

Playing a little Dixieland

Yeah, I knew immediately

That’s where I wanted to be

With them boys up on the stand

Playin' in a honky-tonk band

One of the boys

Making beautiful noise

Playing with my friends

Until the music ends

One of the boys

Well, it’s plain to see, I got my wish

And I’ve been lucky ever since then

And one day, I’m meeting my maker

I don’t know where or when

But I still love the gypsy life

Yeah, I’m still havin' fun

And though I ain’t gettin' any younger, I’m a

Long way from done

One of the boys

I’m making beautiful noise

Yeah, playing with my friends

Until the music ends

One of the boys

Making soulful noise

Rollin' down the road

Headed for another show

Just one of the boys

Standin' on stage on a Friday night

Feelin' the warmth of the old spotlight

Got my guys on my left and my right

Said «Hey, boys

Make a little noise»

Me and the boys

Woo!

Now time has passed, things have changed

I’ve seen 'em come and go

I lost a lot of my very best friends

And I still miss 'em so

And when I look up in the sky

I see all of them guys

Up there smilin', shining bright

And everything is alright

One of the boys

I’m making beautiful noise

Yes, I’m playing with my friends

Until the music ends

One of the boys

Making soulful noise

I’m rollin' down the road

A-headed for another show

Making beautiful noise

Me and the boys

It’s a beautiful noise

Just one of the boys
