John Fogerty - I Saw It On Tv songtekst
Je score:
Comin' on the little screen A man named Ike was in the White House Big black limosine There were many shows to follow From Hooter to Doodyville Though I saw them all I can't recall Which cartoon was real The coonskin caps Yankke bats The Hound Dog Man's big start The A-Bomb fears Annette had ears I lusted in my heart A young man from Boston Set sail The New Frontier And we watched the dream Dead-end in Dallas They buried innocence that year I know it's true Oh so true 'Cause I saw it on TV We gathered 'round to hear the sound Comin' on the little screen The grief had passed the old man laughed And all the girls screamed 'Cause four guys from England Took us all by the hand It was time to laugh Time to sing Time to join the band But all too soon we hit the Moon And covered up the sky They built their bombs And aimed their guns And still I dont know why The dominoes tumbled And big business roared Everynight at six They showed the pictures And counted up the score I know it's true Oh so true Cause I saw it on TV The old man rocks among his dreams A prisoner of the porch The light he says at the end of the tunnel Was nothin' but a burglar's torch And them that was caught in the Cover Are all rich and free But they chained my mind To an endless tomb When they took my only son from me I know it's true Oh so true Cause I saw it on TV
