    Story Behind the Song
    A good friend of mine moved to Nashville to pursue his musical career. I wrote this song kind of as a joke to mess with him a little. I think far to often there is the misconception that geography is everything. Sometimes you have to become "a hit" in the place you already are, before you can become "a hit" to the world beyond. (Thats just my opinion though.)

    Lyrics
    Left with a guitar and a grin
    Said I'll see you when
    I'm the featured act at the county fair

    Mail you a backstage pass
    What would you think about that
    Hanging out with all the big names there

    Need my one hit song to soar
    Land ontop the billboards
    It will just take a little time

    With my spotlight stance
    To put all those girls in a trance
    Make each one wish they were mine

    (Chorus)
    I wanna be a rock star
    Eaten cavare
    On the top floor of the Continental
    A Nashville record deal
    The biggest show around
    When I role my limo into town
    Everybody will come to see
    The best thing since the king

    The first few months will be hard
    Everybodies gotta start
    From the bottom and work it on up

    To gain the fortune and fame
    I'll learn the ropes of the game
    And pray that I don't get stuck

    Not to many big tattoes
    Limit the women and the boos
    Never let it get the best of me

    With my spotlight stance
    Roll of quarters in my pants
    I'll keep my lyrics clean

    (Chorus)

    Back seat of my limosene
    Get'n freaky with a beauty queen
    Playing till the sun comes up

    A modern James Dean
    Its what they'll call me in
    Rolling Stones maganize

    (Chorus)
