Lyrics

[Verse 1]

They were so damn glad when I left school

Said I was crazy 'cause I broke the rules

Time to start livin' my teenage dream

Out on the streets, it was rough and mean

[Verse 2]

That's why

They call me one of the boys

[Verse 3]

Got tattooed arms and rings in my ears

Never gonna suffer a straight man's fears

Learnin' how to drink, crackin'' with the babes

Movin' fast, I'm gonna make the grade

[Verse 4]

That's why

They call me one of the boys

That's why

They call me one of the boys

[Verse 5]

I'm pushin' it hard

I'm pushin' it fast

Gotta work it over

I gotta make it last

[Verse 6]

What you need is mates, staunch and true

Boys at your back, they're gonna see you through

I don't look for trouble but I won't hide

I'll jump on you if you don't step aside

[Verse 7]

That's why

They call me one of the boys

[Verse 8]

There's one thing I've learned

And I know it's so true

Bad girls love bad boys but

Good girls love 'em too

[Verse 9]

I was young and wild, with so much to learn

A fierce bright flame and hot to burn

Can't turn back 'cause the die is cast

I'll die young from livin' fast

[Verse 10]

That's why

They call me one of the boys

That's why

They call me one of the boys

And that's why

They call me one of the boys

[Verse 11]

Baby, I'm just one of, I'm just one of

I'm just one of the boys

I'm just one of, I'm just one of

I'm just one of, just one of the boys

[Verse 12]

I'm just one of, just one of the boys

I'm just one of, just one of the boys
