You can't keep the fortune without the pain
Always comin' 'round the bend
That's how he makes it when he's on his own

That's how he got that crazy sound
Heard he came from Memphis
Somewhere down south
Go man go
She said, “He's so good lookin', that's a fact

Out all night, he keeps me up 'til dawn
Hey! What makes him so special anyhow?
Way Cool Jr.

Check him out on his good side

Way Cool Jr.

You know you can't have fire without the flame
She said, “He's so good lookin', he turns me on
Steel guitar scratched off the back
Way Cool Jr.
You can't keep the fortune without the pain
That's how he makes it when he's on his own

He's gonna live it up or never live it down
Steel guitars run across his back
Way Cool Jr.
You don't live it up or never live it down
You know you can't have fire without the flame
Stop working on the women it's on real slick
He's the hottest thing to ever hit this town
The girls all know he's Way Cool Jr.”
New kid in town got fancy clothes
Way Cool Jr.
She said, “He's so good lookin' and that's a fact
