In a little town in Idaho, [A] way back in [E] 61,
[A] A man was [E] fryin' burgers, [F#] gee it seemed like [B] lots of fun,
[E] But to his friend the bun boy, [A] he confessed it's [B] misery.
[A] I think I'd like to [B] start a group, so
[B] come along [E] with me,
And all [A] you say-ation, cross [B]
-up nay -ation,
[F#] Please play our [A] records for your [E] concert, nay-ation.
Fans soon started boomin', [A] they were breakin' in [E] the coin,
[A] They found a few [E] musicians, [F#] and persuaded them [B] to join,
[E]
But Paul Revere decided, [A] since they had such newfound fame,
We need a fancy [E] title, [B] and the Raiders [E] they became,
And [A] all you say -ation, [B] cross-up nay -ation,
[F#] Please play our [A] records for your [E] concert, nay -ation.
Soon packed up for Hollywood, [A] reap their [E] fortunes there,
[A] Streets aren't really paved with gold, and [F#] you can't live [B] on air,
[E] And then Dick Clark approached them, [A] and said, I know a thing [B] or two,
[A] I'll put you on a [B] TV show, and [D#m] make big [E] stars of you,
And all [A] you say-ation, [B] cross-up nay-ation,
[F#] Please play our [A] records for your [E] concert, nay -ation.
Now things are goin' booby, [A] and we really can't [E] complain,
[A] Though the pace of rock [E] and rolling, [F#] really drives us all [B] insane,
[E]
Everybody's pushin', [A] sayin' give it all you [B] can,
[A] Come to think of it, [E] our business [B] manager's our biggest [E]
fan,
And [A] all you say -ation, cross [B]-up nay -ation,
Please [F#] play our records [A]
