Recently I've been thinkin about what I am and where my priorities lie
Gettin it together on some future plan, decidin what I need to get by
I tried workin and schoolin but there just not my plan, oh no
Can't ya see I'll always be a music man
Well I could be pickin bluegrass or singin the blues,
It doesn't really matter to me
As long as I'm playin the music I just can't lose,
And noones gonna tell me differently
Cause all I really care about is sittin right here in my hands,
Oh yeah
Can't ya see I'll always be a music man
Well my momma sits and worries about me for days
Even though she really likes the way the boy plays
My daddy tells her I'm just goin through a phase
But that's just what he always says
I hear what they're sayin but I take it with a grain of sand, oh yeah
Can't ya see I'll always be a music man
(repeat) yeah
(solo)
Well my momma sits and worries about me for days
Even though she really likes the way the boy plays
My daddy tells her that I'm goin through a phase
But that's just what he always says
I hear what they're sayin but I take it with a grain of sand, oh yeah
Can't ya see I'll always be a music man
Well I've told you my story now here's what I've found
To be happy you need only be real
So don't let anyone try to turn your head around
Just remember you are what you feel
You see all of my life people been tryin to tell me what I am, oh yeah
Can't ya see I'll always be a music man, oh yeah
(repeat)

REO Speedwagon è un gruppo musicale rock statunitense formatosi a Champaign, Illinois, alla fine degli anni '60. Il nome deriva da una vecchia diligenza americana che trasportava merci e passeggeri. La formazione originale comprendeva Kevin Cronin (voce), Neal Doughty (tastiere), Gary Richrath (chitarra), Bruce Hall (basso) e Alan Gratzer (batteria). Nel corso degli anni '70, il gruppo ha attraversato diverse fasi stilistiche, passando dal hard rock al progressive rock. Il successo è arrivato negli anni '80 con album come "Hi Infidelity" (1980) e "Can't Fight This Feeling" (1984), che hanno generato successi radiofonici come "Keep on Loving You", "Take It On the Run" e il titolo dell'album "Can't Fight This Feeling". REO Speedwagon è noto per le sue melodie orecchiabili, i testi romantici e la potente performance dal vivo. La band ha continuato a registrare e esibirsi fino al 2025, anno in cui si sono sciolti.
