When I was a young boy
I was working for the state
I wasn't making much money
I was staying out late
Not going down at the night time
Playing 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 fall down on me
I thought maybe I could make it
If I never give in
I've been down before, I aint going down again.

Chorus:
I'm making some noise!
I've been a worried boy
Up at the top of my voice saying
Look at me mama, I'm making some noise!

(Guitar solo)

From across the canyon
A guitar plays
Through an ampliphier, along the lake
It was an old melody, I recognized the song
I had an ampliphier too, so I played along

Chorus:
I'm making some noise!
Im still a working boy
At the top of my voice saying
Look at me mama, I'm making some noise!
I've been a long, gone boy
At the top of my voice saying
Look at me mama, I'm making some noise!
