Cover of the Rolling Stone -- Dr. Hook

----------------------------------------

Stuff in brackets [] is some dude talkin'. Other stuff is the singer.



[ Hey Ray, hey Sugar, tell them who we are. ]

well, were big rock singers, we got golden fingers

and were loved everywhere we go [ that sounds like us ]

we sing about beauty and we sing about truth

at ten thousand dollars a show [ right ]

we take all kind of pills, that give us all kind of thrills

but the thrill we've never known, is the thrill that'll getcha

when you get your picture on the cover of the Rollin' Stone



CHORUS:

Rollin' Stone,

wanna see my picture on the cover

wanna buy five copies for my mother [ Yeah! ]

wanna see my smilin' face, on the cover the cover of the Rollin Stone



[ That's a very very good idea ]



I got a freaky old lady name a Cole King Katy

who embroideries on my jeans

I got my poor ol' grey haired daddy, drivin' my limousine



now it's all designed to blow our minds but our minds won't really

be blown

like the blow that'll getcha when you get your picture on the cover

of the Rollin' Stone



-- CHORUS --



[ Hey, I know how...ROCK AND ROLL! ]



[ Awww, dats beautiful ]



we got a lot of teenage blue eyed groopies who'll do anything we say

we got a genuine Indyan guru, who's teachin' us a better way

we got all the friends, that money can buy, so we'll never have to

be alone

and we keep gettin' richer but we can't get our picture on the cover

of the cover of the Rollin' Stone



Rollin' Stone, wanna see my picture on the cover

wanna buy five copies for my mother [ I Want one! ]

wanna see my smilin' face, on the cover the cover of the Rollin Stone

on the cover of the Rollin' Stone

wanna see my picture on the cover [ I don't know why we ain't

on the cover, baby ]

gonna buy five copies for my mother [ were beautiful fellows ]

wanna see my smiling face, [ I ain't kidding ya ]

on the cover the cover of the Rollin Stone [ Ah, we would make a

beautiful cover ]

[ the first shot, right up front man, I can see it now...we would

be on the front smilin' man, ahhhhh beautiful ]
