Song
Legend Of Paul Revere: Paul Revere And The Raiders.
B-Side of 'Him Or Me' - #5 in 1967.
INTRO: E
#1.
In a little town in Idaho, way back in '61.
A man was fryin' burgers, gee, it seemed like lots of fun.
But to his friend the bun-boy, he confessed his miser....y..
'I think I'd like to start a group, so, come along with me.'
CHORUS:
And all you...sta..aa..tions, across the na..aa..tion..
please, play our records for your congre...gation.
#2.
The band soon started boomin', they were rakin' in the coins..
they found a few musicians and persuaded them to join.
And Paul Revere decided, since they had such new-found
fa..aa..me..
'We need a fancy title,' and the Raiders they became.
CHORUS:
And all you...sta..aa..tions, across the na..aa..tion..
please, play our records for your congre...gation.
#3.
They soon packed up for Hollywood to reap their fortunes there..
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
tw..oo..oo.
I'll put you on a TV show and make big stars of you.'
CHORUS:
And all you...sta..aa..tions, across the na..aa..tion..
please, play our records for your congre...gation.
#4.
Now things are goin' groovy, and we really can't complain..
though the pace of rock and rollin' nearly drives us
all insane.
And everybody's pushin', sayin', 'Give it all you can!'
Come to think of it, our business manager's our biggest fan.
OUTRO:
And all you...sta..aa..tions, across the na..aa..tion..
please, play our records for your congre...gation.
E..(Fade.)
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
