John Prine - Picture Show Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • A young man from a small town
  • With a very large imagination
  • Lay alone in his room with his radio on
  • Looking for another station
  • When the static from the mouthpiece
  • Gave way to the sound below
  • James dean went out to hollywood
  • And put his picture in a picture show.
  • James dean went out to hollywood
  • And put his picture in a picture show.
  • Chorus:
  • And its oh daddy get off of your knees
  • Mamma whyd you have to go
  • Your darling jim is out a limb
  • I put my picture in a picture show
  • Whoa ho! put my picture in a picture show
  • Hamburgers cheeseburgers
  • Wilbur and orville wright
  • John garfield in the afternoon
  • Montgomery clift at night
  • When the static hit the mouthpiece
  • Gave way to the sound below
  • James dean went out to hollywood
  • And put his picture in a picture show.
  • Repeat chorus:
  • A mocca man in a wigwam sitting on a reservation.
  • With a big black hole in the belly of his soul
  • Waiting on an explanation
  • While the white man sits on his fat can
  • And takes pictures of the navajo
  • Every time he clicks his kodak pics
  • He steals a little bit of soul.
  • Every time he clicks his kodak pics
  • He steals a little bit of soul.
  • Repeat chorus:
  • Yie hi! put my picture in a picture show
  • Here we go!
  • A young man from a small town
  • With a very large imagination...
