White Wall -

I’m staring at a white wall

Thinking 'bout I could’ve had it all

Stacked my money, get a little tall

But I got bit by rock 'n' roll

Come here boy, come and take a shot

Be slick though, don’t get caught

That was all that it took for me

Well, thinking back, I was only 17

I’m staring at a white wall

Thinking 'bout I could’ve had it all

Stacked my money, get a little tall

But I got bit by rock 'n' roll

Come here boy, come and take a shot

Be slick though, don’t get caught

That was all that it took for me

Well, thinking back, I was only 17

Oh, I’m staring at a black wall

Thinking 'bout how I used to have it all

Sitting pretty, not a care at all

And I owe it all to rock 'n' roll

Take your blood, put it on the line

Your name in lights by the end of the night

These were words that were said to me

Well, thinking back, I was only 23

I’m staring at a white wall

Thinking 'bout I could’ve had it all

Stacked my money, get a little tall

But I got bit by rock 'n' roll

Relax boy, come and take a shot

Be slick though, don’t get caught

That was all that it took for me

Well, thinking back, I was only 17
