The Legend Of Paul Revere Lyrics

In a little town in Idaho, way back in '61
A man was flyin' burgers; gee it seemed like lots of fun
But to his friend the bun boy, he confessed "It's misery
I think I'd like to start a group, so come along with me"

CHORUS:
& all you stations across the nation
Please play our records for your congregation

The band soon started boomin', they were rakin' the coins
They found a few musicians & persuaded them to join
& Paul Revere decided, since they had such newfound fame:
"We need a fancy title" & the Raiders they became

They soon packed up for Hollywood to reap their fortunes there
The streets aren't really paved with gold & you can't live on air
& then Dick Clark approached them, said "I know a thing or 2
I'll put you on a TV show & make big stars of you"

(chorus)

Now things are goin' groovy & we really can't complain
Though the pace of rock & rollin' nearly drives us all insane
& everybody's pushin', sayin' "Give it all you can"
I've come to think of it, our business manager's our biggest fan

(chorus)
