Hey there weird kid in your high top shoes
And in the back of the class I was just like you
Always left out never fit in
On that path you're walking in
Mister misunderstood mister misunderstood
Them bullies get their rocks off on top forty radio
But you love your daddy's vinyl old time rock and roll
Elvis car stellar ray wiley hubbard
And thank jeff tweety as one bad mother
Mister misunderstood mister misunderstood
One day you'll lead the charge you'll lead the band
Guitar hero with lightning hands
And girls like your tattoos and veins in your arms
They'll be helpless to your musical charms
And they'll all hold up their hands
They'll all wanna dance
Mister misunderstood mister misunderstood
First time I met alabama hannah I was skinny as a rail
Red hair tied up in a blue bandana
She was hotter than the devil
She turned me on the back
Porch pickers jackson polk and gin
Her daddy didn't trust my intentions
So he turned to his daddy's old for ten
I mister misunderstood mister misunderstood
Had an axe to grind so walk far away
I'm out at the sun for coming up again
I lost religion found my soul in the blues
Rubbing velvet off my blue suede shoes
Everybody held up their hands
And every so long field street dance
We're mister misunderstood mister misunderstood
So I went with you like a coat of my plenty
Through the glass behind my rear view
Took a left when the world went right
Down sixteenth avenue
Played with fire and I played all edges
Every circus stage and counted back
They tried to find my points
Sam my edges and I just threw out my hair
I'm mister misunderstood
I'm mister misunderstood
Standing in line chasing the buzz
Till the next big thing's ain't already was
And if they know what they're trying to find
If it ain't that same old band gun kind
Yeah it gets the head scratchers fits
Wondering how enough they miss a mister misunderstood
Mister misunderstood
Hey there weird kid in your high top shoes
Sitting in the back of the class I was just like you
Mister misunderstood I understand
Mister misunderstood I understand
Mister misunderstood I understand
Mister misunderstood I understand
Mister misunderstood I understand
Mister misunderstood
That's what I do
