Lyrics
Susan never met anybody famous
That was in the beginning
Out of the window with a couple of girlfriends
And her red leather boots on
Pitching out on the street in a raincoat
She never needed a license
She was one step ahead of the new thing
Both feet planted over the fine line
In a cheap dance club down in the basement
She was almost sixteen with her face on
And the singer in the band played a stolen guitar
Played it like a natural man
It was all too easy
Played a stolen guitar
Later on at the party backstage it was
Just a case of tequila
When the message got around there was something going on
It was already over
She was one step away from the real thing
Already way over the fine line
They were locked upstairs in a hotel room
Definitely twenty-five with her black lace on
And the singer in the band played a stolen guitar
Played it like a natural man
It was all too easy
Played a stolen guitar
She said the devil made me do it, I don't know why
Must have been a stolen guitar
It was all too easy
She only wanted a ticket to rock 'n' roll heaven
By the time that he woke up she was halfway home again
With her stolen guitar, the next teenage sensation
She says, "Now I gotta get a reputation"
She said the devil made me do it, I don't know why
You might as well forget it man
It was all so easy
The singer got the leather boots and Susie got the photos
Her father got a phone call and the papers got the headlines
She said, "I got what it takes baby and you better not forget it
I gotta play on the radio and a stolen guitar"
She played it like a natural man
It was easy
The devil made me do it, I don't know why
You wanna know the secret
You wanna play the blues
The trick is play it dirty
Play a stolen guitar
Play a stolen guitar
Stolen guitar
Stolen guitar
Stolen guitar
