"One of the Boys" is a single released by Mott the Hoople, in Canada, Germany, Holland and the United States, though not in the UK.
The song was featured in an episode of the BBC British Drama series "Life on Mars".
The songs subject matter refers to 'being one of the boys' - the state that exists when a young male comes out with his friends for a night of drinking, poker, or debauchery, for example.
The song uses the same chord progression as "Can't Get Enough", a hit Mick Ralphs' next band, Bad Company.
