Makin' Some Noise

(альбом: Into The Great Wide Open - 1991)

When I was a young boy
I was working for the state
I wasn't making much money
I was staying out late
Go down at nighttime and
Play music in the bars
Take my breaks out underneath the stars

[Chorus:]
I was making some noise
I was a working boy up at the top of my voice
Saying, "Look at me mama I'm making some noise"

I had to rock the boat, I had to shake the tree
To see what'd fall down on me
I thought, "Maybe I can make it if I never give in
I been down before, I ain't going down again."

[Chorus]

From across the canyon a guitar plays
Through an amplifier on long delay
It was an old melody, I recognized the song
I had an amplifier too, so I played along

I'm making some noise, I'm still a working boy
Up at the top of my voice
Saying, "Look at me Mama I'm making some noise."
I'm making some noise, I been a long gone boy
