Kris Kristofferson

Rocket To Stardom

Songtexte Froney's got an act that's hard to follow Ol' Norman plays a nimble tambourine You should see what Sarah 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 closet circuit circus in my bedroom And a world full of whackos in the wings I've got electric eyes...
