I was 12 years old and the world was mean
I never got big for the football team
The guys called me "Little girl", before they crushed my nose
And I'm black-out side-mouth, first overdose
No teenage dream, it was a teenage nightmare
'Cause life ain't easy for a boy with long hair
Life ain't easy for a boy with long hair
So, what can I say? Things got that bad
I stood before the mirror to shave my head
But then I looked at my eyes and I knew right then
You let your hair grow and start a band
Gonna find me some ponytail losers out there
'Cause life ain't easy for a boy with long hair
Life ain't easy for a boy with long hair
I got the jeans on
I got a rock 'n' roll song
I'm gonna boogie woogie all night long
And no one's ever gonna stop me
I don't care what they say, I'm going my own way
And it's long, so long but I don't care
'Cause life ain't easy for a boy with long hair
But it's my life
Here we go
And as the years went by, fashion went, then came
And everybody changed but I'm still the same
And now you try to dress up like a rock 'n' roll star
But you don't look cool and you won't get far
What you looking for you can't just by anywhere
It's just I'm living the life of a boy with long hair
I'm living the life of a boy with long hair
Life ain't easy for a boy with long hair
Life ain't easy for a boy with long hair
I got the jeans on
I got a rock 'n' roll song
I'm gonna boogie woogie all night long
And no one's ever gonna stop me
(That's right)
I don't care what they say, I'm going my own way
And it's long, so long but I don't care
'Cause life ain't easy for a boy with long hair
(I got them jeans on)
I got the blue jeans on
I got a rock 'n' roll song
It's a long way, but I don't care
'Cause life ain't easy for a boy with long hair
That's right
Ooh-ooh I keep my long hair
Oh-oh-oh-oh-whoa
