REFRAIN

i'm ready for my fifteen minutes of fame
and i'm ready to hear applause and acclaim
i've struggled for so long, think my moment's now...
i'm ready for my fifteen minutes, and how!

VERSE ONE

i'm tired of strugglin', of barely gettin' by
tired of the bills that keep on pilin' up high
i'm tired of havin' to work ev'ry day
i'm tired of workin' hard for little pay

VERSE TWO

why should i be nice--all i do is get screwed
i'm so tired of bein' used and abused
i'm tired of always cryin' late at night
wonder when my life will finally go right

REFRAIN

i'm ready for my fifteen minutes of fame
and i'm ready to hear applause and acclaim
i've struggled for so long, think my moment's now...
i'm ready for my fifteen minutes--and how!

VERSE THREE

tired of feelin' i'll never get ahead
tired of thinkin' i'd be better off dead
tired of prayin'--he's not list'nin' to me
what must i do to alter my destiny

BRIDGE

what can i do to change my ways
what must i do in order to change
but until then...

REFRAIN

i'm ready for my fifteen minutes of fame
and i'm ready to hear applause and acclaim
i've struggled for so long, think my moment's now...
i'm ready for my fifteen minutes--and how!

Yes, this is truly a blues song. I would love to hear this sung to a good blues toon. As for the reality it"s sad yet good to know that you are a fighter and God loves you. Vic

If you continue to write this well, you'll have far more than 15 minutes of fame.
