Roland the Roadie and Gertrude the Groupie - Dr. Hook & The Medicine Show

作词：Sheldon Silverstein

作曲：Sheldon Silverstein

Now roland the roadie was only a toadie

Who set up the lights and the mikes for the shows

And gertrude the groupie was a rock and roll fan

Who stood by the stage door in the rains and the snows

Roland the roadie met gertrude the groupie

At a rock concert back in bayonne

He tried to seduce said he'd introduce

Her to all of the beatles and stones

So roland the roadie got gertrude

The groupie a seat in the balcony above

And gertrude the groupie felt grateful

And groovy but roland the roadie felt love

And some folks loves ham hocks and

Some folks loves pork chops and some folks love vegetable soup

But roland the roadie loves gertrude the groupie

But gertrude the groupie loves groups

She stood up and screamed as the amber

Spot gleamed on her heroes so skinny and tall

With their eyelids so droopy and gertrude

The groupie and she was in love with them all

Roland the roadie told gertrude

The groupie to wait and he'd be her man

But while he dreamed of a rose covered home

She was out with the group in the van

Hey gertie get out here come on babe come on out of there

I know you're in there

The whole trailer's moving baby

What about me

Gertie

Oh gertie

Now roland the roadie is back on the road

His heart has been broken again

And gertrude the groupie waits out in the cold

For the very next group to come in

And some folks loves ham hocks and some folks

Loves pork chops and some folks loves vegetable soup

And roland the roadie loves gertrude the groupie

But gertrude the groupie loves groups

Groups groups groups
