Catch-As-Catch-Can

Our story starts when I was fourteen years old:
My friends and I snuck out for our first punk show
We stuffed our beds and stole my sister's car
And spent the whole way there playing our air guitars
I had no clue what I was getting myself into
A few years later, met some guys in a rock band
Picked up a keyboard and I started singing
We wrote some songs and played our local bars
But never would've guessed that we would ever make it this far
Now and then, I still remember it sinking in
I called my mom on the way from NC to LA
'cause it helped me to feel close to home
I told her not to worry, got my best friends with me
Now I'm livin' my life on the road
Brought back some stories from the places we'd been to
And learned a lot from all the drama we went through
Then cut a record, started building a name
Got a real fanbase and our first taste of fame
It's funny how life has a way of just working out
I called my mom on the way from NC to LA
'cause it helped me to feel close to home
I told her not to worry, got my best friends with me
Now I'm livin' my life on the road
We've come a long way since the old days
And I'm proud to say I wouldn't change anything at all
'Cause once this road comes to an end
I'll have the memories of when:
I found it so hard to see but mom tried to believe
That life on the road isn't bad
'cause sooner or later, we all have to leave
But I'll never forget my way back
I called my mom on the way from NC to LA
'cause it helped me to feel close to home
I told her not to worry, got my best friends with me
Now I'm livin' my life on the road
