The Marshall Plan |
In a dark horse town, in the middle of the west |
Where Friday takes so long to arrive |
Johnny wakes up dreaming and turns on the radio |
The he jumps up playin' his guitar in the mirror |
Starts his day with a rock and roll pulse |
Tonight’s the night that Suzy and he Are goin' to a rock and roll show |
Tonight, I’m gonna see some rock and roll |
Yeah, my favorite group is playin' |
Tonight, I’m gonna see some rock and roll |
Well it’s showtime, and he’s caught up in the crowd |
He hates the crush, but he loves the music loud |
He reaches out, but Suzy’s disappeared, |
Now Johnny’s standin' on a corner, after the show |
Lookin' for his Suzy dear |
But there goes his Suzy in the band’s limousine, yeah |
Well that’s the way it goes at these rock and roll shows |
That’s the way it goes |
It’s rock and roll |
Well, that’s the way it goes |
It’s rock and roll |
Now Suzy’s gone, and Johnny hears a thunder |
As he rolls another number and he counts |
He counts the times he’s dreamt himself to be the hero |
'Cause then when Suzy (was a bore??) |
He’s heard about adventure |
As he looks into the mirror now he knows |
He must be the star and play guitar like thunder |
And find Suzy at his rock and roll show |
Boy, if I only had a good guitar and a big amp |
Boy, it wouldn’t be somebody else takin' my girl away |
I tell ya, I know what I should do |
I’ll put an ad in the paper, and get a few other guys |
Who wanna play as much as I do |
I tell ya, I ain’t playin' no surf music |
I’m gonna play some heavy music |
I’m gonna play bad, I’m gonna play loud |
I know just what I want it to sound like |
It’s gonna sound like, it’s gonna sound like — |
(…guitar solo…) |
This is Don Kirshner |
And tonight on Don Kirshner’s Rock Concert |
A new phenomenon in the music world |
With six million albums to his credit in just two short years |
My good friend, here’s Johnny |
Now Johnny became a legend in his time |
Found it easier to live in pain |
Half-a-hero in a hard-hearted game |
Now it’s showtime, and he’s caught up in the glow |
He hates the rush but he needs the music so Still he reaches out, but Suzy’s disappeared |
Well that’s the way it goes at these rock and roll shows |
It’s rock and roll |
That’s the way it goes, it’s rock and roll (repeat) |
