Lyrics

Highschool Football Hero

[Chorus] Wanna be a highschool football hero with an s.a.t. score less then zero I wanna try to drink my weight in beer I wanna be a highschool football hero [Verse 1] Wanna score a touchdown so i can score after the game Don't care about my future 'cause it is just another day I'll rush for forty yards and drink four forties later on I'm done with this brunette, someone pass another blonde [Chorus] Wanna be a highschool football hero with an s.a.t score less than zero I wanna try to drink my weight in beer I wanna be a highshcool football hero [Verse 2] My coach tells me to drink my milk and wash it down with 'roids I've gotta get my rest so i can party with the boys My brain's put in upside-down so i'm just a little slow I'll change my name to bubba so that Everyone will know i [Chorus] Wanna be a highschool football hero With an s.a.t. score less then zero I wanna try to drink my weight in beer I wanna be a highschool football hero [Outro] Wanna be a highschool football hero Wanna be a highschool football hero Wann be a highschool football hero
