Katie...she was my girlfriend
but now I'm cryin'
because she ran away
Katie...she said she loved me
but she was lyin'
got nothin' else to say

Music...is all I have now
Because my Katie
Was my heart and soul
Music...is what I'm playing
because my lady
thought she would take a toll.

WOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!
So go your own way Katiiieeeee
WOoooooooooooooooaaaaaaahhhh!!!
Get up and walk away!
Woooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh!!!
You know I loved you Katie!
Woooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaahhh!!!
And this is what I'll say!

Driving...My pontiac trans am
well it's not quite mine
but it's my Dad's trans am
Driving...down throught the suburbs
I'm feelin' so fine
I've got a rockin' plan!

Swimming...down at the beachfront
I brought my guitar
of the acoustic kind
Singing...down on the beachfront
playing my guitar
but you're not on my mind!

WOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!
So go your own way Katiiieeeee
WOoooooooooooooooaaaaaaahhhh!!!
Get up and walk away!
Woooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh!!!
You know I loved you Katie!
Woooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaahhh!!!
And this is what I'll say!

Parents...don't like my music
They say it's too loud
But I'm a rebel, dude
Parents...Say turn that noise down
I say I'm too proud
Those guys don't have a clue!

Rebel...I'm pretty hardcore
I stayed up way late
Because my curfew blows
Rebel...I won't just conform
You'll see what I state
In my Hot Topic clothes!

WOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!
So go your own way Katiiieeeee
WOoooooooooooooooaaaaaaahhhh!!!
Get up and walk away!
Woooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh!!!
You know I loved you Katie!
Woooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaahhh!!!
And this is what I'll say!

My Dad...He says to come home
He says I'm out late
And he can't trust my friends
My Dad...he's such a jackass
Always on my case
Good god it never ends

Come home...it's after midnight
he never listens
when my expressions flow
Got home...it's after midnight
I hope you'll hear me
in my guitar solo

(solo consists of three, possibly six, notes, repeated over and over)

WOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!
So go your own way Katiiieeeee
WOoooooooooooooooaaaaaaahhhh!!!
Get up and walk away!
Woooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh!!!
You know I loved you Katie!
Woooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaahhh!!!
And this is what I'll say!
