Story Behind The Song
Had a big paying job....left if all for music (a very low paying job)! People thought I was crazy to do that and could not understand why I would give up all that money to pursue my dream. This is my message to all the nay-sayers! "I'm gonna get me some satisfaction!" - How bout you?

Lyrics
**** SATISFACTION ****
(SHERRI MULLEN)
I WALK SLOWLY DOWN THE STREET
WITH MY HEAD HELD HIGH
MINDING MY OWN BUSINESS
JUST LOOKING FOR MY PIECE OF THE PIE
BUT THEY ALL LOOK AT ME
LIKE I WAS A FREAK
I KEEP ON WALKING BY
AIN?T GONNA GIVE ?EM NO SATISFACTION?
YESTERDAY WAS BAD
BUT IT?S ALL BEHIND MY NOW
I COUNT THE BLESSINGS THAT I HAVE
GONNA FIND MY OWN WAY SOMEHOW
YEAH, THEY KICK ME WHEN I?M DOWN
AND TREAT ME LIKE A CLOWN
I JUST KEEP MY HEAD HELD HIGH
AIN?T GONNA GIVE ?EM NO SATISFACTION?
(GUITAR SOLO)
ONE, TWO, THREE
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF ME
FOUR, FIVE, SIX
LORD YOU MAKE ME SICK
ALWAYS TELLING ME WHAT TO DO
THINKING I?LL NEVER BE GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU
BUT I DON?T CARE WHAT YOU SAY
I DON?T CARE WHAT YOU DO
I?M GONNA FIND MY OWN WAY
I DON?T WANNA LIVE LIKE YOU
YEAH I?LL HOLD MY HEAD UP HIGH
I?M GONNA GET ME SOME SATISFACTION?
