Rocket to Stardom - Kris Kristofferson

作曲：R. McGuinn/B. Neuwirth/Kris Kristofferson

It started when the neighbors saw my fancy new TV

That opens up the gate outside my home

And let's me let in anyone I really wanna see

And keep out all them other dudes I don't

Then one by one they started comin' over to perform

And someone played temptation on kazoo

Nellie got as naked as the day that she was born

And it sure was all over baby blue

I've got electric eyes two big dogs and a mine- field

And miles and miles and miles of barbed- wire fence

But the biggest show in town is in my driveway

And we ain't had a good night sleepin' since

Orville baker's showin' us the fastest draw in town

Cora lee's clackin' on her spoons

Ol' jesse's trick dog sure does look dead lyin' on the ground

And jesse's wife is a- howlin' at the moon

Charly's ugly daughter sure can tap dance

Mable thatcher's walkin' on her hands

And just as I was leavin' for the kitchen for a snack

Ol' lulla bell amazed us with her fans

I've got electric eyes two big dogs and a mine- field

And miles and miles and miles of barbed- wire fence

But the biggest show in town is in my driveway

And we ain't had a good night sleepin' since

Froney's got an act that's hard to follow

Norman plays a nimble tamborine

You should see what sara lee can swallow

And ol' billy does a wicked mr clean

Good lord if I'd've known this future when I started

Believe you me I'd never change a thing

I got a closed circuit circus in my bedroom

And a world full of whackos in the wings

Get 'em burt

I've got electric eyes two big dogs and a mine- field

And miles and miles and miles of barbed- wire fence

But the biggest show in town is in my driveway

And we ain't had a good night's sleepin' since
