In a little town in Idaho way back in sixty one |
|
A man was frying burgers gee - it seemed like lots of fun |
|
But to his friend the bun boy he confessed its misery |
|
I think I'd like to start a group so come along with me |
|
And all youth stations accross the nation |
|
Please play our records for your congrecation. |
|
The band soon started booming they were raking in the coin |
|
They found few new musicians and persuaded them to join |
|
And Paul Revere decided since they had such new-found fame |
|
We need a fancy title and The Raiders they became |
|
And all youth stations accross the nation |
|
Please play our records for your congrecation. |
|
They soon packed up for Hollywood to read their fortunes there |
|
But streets aren't really paved with gold and you can't live on air |
|
And then Dick Clark approached them said I know a thing or two |
|
I'll put you on a TV show and make big stars of you |
|
And all youth stations accross the nation |
|
Please play our records for your congrecation. |
|
Now thins are going groovy and we really can't complain |
|
Thou the pace of rock 'n rolling nearly drives us all insane |
|
Everybody's bushing saying give it all you can |
|
To come to think of it our business manager's our biggest fan |
