My TV Songtext
von Marc Jordan

Drove the car into the sun
Down the road, fast as a gun
Rockabilly songs on the radio
Ersel Hickey and the diamond glows

Everybody wants to be a star
Everybody wants to be someone
Left Bogalusa in the pouring rain
And headed out for the L.A. sun

My old man′s rusty as a rusty rake
Fishing down by a black hold lake
He buried his dreams by an apple tree
But I saw the future
I saw the future, baby
On my TV

There's a manta ray at the beach motel
And I played my guitar like the ring of a bell
Too much wine and not enough women
Now I′m back on the street and I can't make a living


My old man's rusty as a rusty rake
Fishing down by a black hold lake
He buried his dreams by an apple tree
But I saw the future
I saw the future, baby

You follow the river, you follow the stars
But you always end up right where you are
Ran away from a small town, it was all in my head
Ran away from Maria, now my heart feels like lead

My old man′s rusty as a rusty rake
Fishing down by a black hold lake
He buried his dreams by an apple tree
But I saw the future
I saw the future, baby
On my TV
Yeah

On my TV
I drove the car into the sun
Everybody wants to be someone
Everybody wants to be someone
