When I was a young boy I was workin' for the state I wasn't makin' much money I was stayin' out late Go down at nighttime and Play music in the bars Take my breaks out underneath the stars I was makin' some noise I was a workin' boy up at the top of my voice Sayin', "Look at me mama I'm makin' 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 goin' down again." Refrão: 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 Refrão: I’m makin' some noise, I been a long gone boy at the top of my voice singing ’look at me muma, I’m making some noise?�
