Kris Kristofferson - Rocket To Stardom Lyrics
By kris kristofferson, roger mcguinn, bobby neuwirthIt started when the neighbors saw my fancy new t.vThat opens up the gate outside my homeAnd lets me let in anyone I really wanna seeAnd keep out all them other dudes I dontThen one by one they started comin over to performAnd someone played temptation on kazooNellie got as ***** as the day that she was bornAnd it sure was all over baby blueChorus:Ive got electric eyes, two big dogs, and a mine-fieldAnd miles and miles and miles of barbed-wire fenceBut the biggest show in town is in my drivewayAnd we aint had a good night sleepin sinceOrville bakers showin us the fastest draw in townCora lees clackin on her spoonsOl jesses trick dog sure does look dead lyin on the groundAnd jesses wife is a-howlin at the moonCharlys ugly daughter sure can tap danceMable thatchers walkin on her handsAnd just as I was leavin for the kitchen for a snackOl lulla bell amazed us with her fansChorus:Ive got electric eyes, two big dogs, and a mine-fieldAnd miles and miles and miles of barbed-wire fenceBut the biggest show in town is in my drivewayAnd we aint had a good night sleepin sinceFroneys got an act thats hard to followNorman plays a nimble tamborineYou should see what sara lee can swallowAnd ol billy does a wicked mr. cleanGood lord, if idve known this future when I startedBelieve you me, Id never change a thingI got a closed circuit circus in my bedroomAnd a world full of whackos in the wingsGet em burt !Chorus:Ive got electric eyes, two big dogs, and a mine-fieldAnd miles and miles and miles of barbed-wire fenceBut the biggest show in town is in my drivewayAnd we aint had a good nights sleepin since
