Track 5 from the EP 6x4

lyrics

Well, it’s time to leave the Ritz for the stadium show
Could you help me find my pants? I really gotta go
Honey, you were great….by the way, could you please tell me your name?
And can you tell me what town I’m in? They all look the same

Chorus -

Well, if I could be Keith Richards for a year
Do you think I’d survive all the groupies and the beer?
Playing guitars and trashing bars, shooting dope and crashing cars
Firing lawyers and chasing stars…it’d surly do me in

I’ll have blondes to the left, brunettes to hold me tight
Several pretty Asian girls to tuck me in late at night
I'd buy a brand new Lear jet to fly me from Bangkok to Bourbon Street
Get high with the pilot at 30 thousand feet

Chorus -

Well, if I could be Keith Richards for a year
Do you think I’d survive all the groupies and the beer?
Playing guitars and trashing bars, shooting dope and crashing cars
Firing lawyers and chasing stars…it’d surly do me in

If my liver needs a jump start, I’d run off to rehab
And tell my fans, “He’s just dehydrated, girls, don’t be sad”
But I’m not the rock and roll superman that my hero seems to be
And trying to live that way will be the death of me

Chorus -

Well, if I could be Keith Richards for a year
Do you think I’d survive all the groupies and the beer?
Playing guitars and trashing bars, shooting dope and crashing cars
Firing lawyers and chasing stars…it’d surly do me in
