Title: 03 - Some Old Song View count: 24 Rating: 5.0 (1 ratings) Description: You came up from the underground When the guitar heroes came through town To rub some magic off on you And the local boys of minor fame Laughed to themselves 'cos they'd played your game And all the stories, they were true You melted into him, he was your rocker's dream Clung to him like some disease Said "I won't tell anyone if it's not quite right, Put your ego on tilt for another night" He said "I'm the spotlight, you're the crowd, I like to hear my name out loud" But you slowly lost your love 'cos the money ran out He didn't say goodbye Just took a one-way train out of town Some old song a fool would sing Some old song where the telephone rings And a girl says "Johnny, I love you, so hold on tight and never let go" So you changed your personality and you changed your old clothes Took your bag of nerves, zipped your mouth with a smile Said "I'm going for the sky on these broken wings Pick a name from the hat I wanna be like that" Now you're the prima donna of the champagne scene And none of them rich boys know where you've been And you think it's all forgotten 'til that record comes on Then your memory snags you Kicks and drags you Some old song a fool would sing Some old song where the telephone rings And a girl says "Johnny, I love you, so hold on tight and never let go" I assume no ownership of this song, which is the property of Bob Rock, Paul Hyde, and the Payola$.
