Blue Oyster Cult - The Marshall Plan Lyrics
In a dark horse town, in the middle of the westWhere friday takes so long to arriveJohnny wakes up dreaming turns on the radioThe he jumps up plays his guitar in the mirrorStarts his day with a rock and roll poseTonights the night that susie and heAre going to a rock and roll showTonight! Im gonna see some rock and roll!Yeah, my favorite group is playing!Tonight! Im gonna see some rock and roll!Well its showtime and hes caught up in the crowdHe hates the crush but he loves the music loudHe reaches out and susies disappeared,Now johnnys standing on a corner after the showLooking for his susie dearBut there goes his susie - in the bands limousine!Yeah, well thats the way it goes at these rock and roll showsThats the way it goes - its rock and rollThats the way it goes - its rock and rollNow susies gone, and johnny hears the thunderAs he rolls another number and he countsHe counts the times hes felt himself to be the herocause ever since he was a boyHes heard about adventureAs he looks into the mirror now he knowsHe must be the star and play guitar like thunderFind susie at his rock and roll showBoy, if I only had a good guitar and a big ampBoy, it wouldnt be somebody else taking my girl away...tell yaI know what I should do...Ill put an ad in the paperGet a few other guys who want to play as much as I doTell ya, I aint playin no surf musicIm gonna play some heavy musicIm gonna play badIm gonna play loudI know just what I want it to sound likeIts gonna sound like...Its gonna sound like...This is don kirshnerAnd tonight on don kirshners rock concertA new phenomenon in the music worldWith six million albums to his credit in just two short yearsMy good friend, heres johnny!Now johnny became a legend in his timeFound it easier to live in painHalf a hero in a hard-hearted gameNow its showtime and hes caught up in the flowHe hates the rush but he needs the music soStill he reaches out but susies disappearedWell thats the way it goes at these rock and roll showsIts rock and rollThats the way it goes - its rock and roll
