Makin' Some Noise Lyrics & Chords By Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers

When I was a young boy
I was working for the state
I wasn't making much money
I was staying out late
Go down at nighttime
Playing music in the bars
Take my breaks out underneath the stars.
Chorus:
I was making some noise!
I was a working boy
Up at the top of my voice saying
Look at me mama, I'm makin' some noise!
I had to rock the boat
I had to shake the tree
To see what fall down on me
I thought maybe I could make it
If I never give in
I've been down before, I ain't goin' down again.
Chorus:
I'm making some noise!
I've been a worried boy
Up at the top of my voice saying
Look at me mama, I'm making some noise!
(Guitar solo)
From across the canyon
A guitar plays
Through an amplifier on a long delay
It was an old melody, I recognized the song
I had an amplifier too, so I played along
Chorus:
I'm making some noise!
Im still a working boy
At the top of my voice saying
Look at me mama, I'm making some noise!
I'm making some noise!
I've been a long, gone boy
At the top of my voice saying
Look at me mama, I'm making some noise!
I'm making some noise!
I'm making some noise!
