《Some People (Demo)》歌词

[00:04:07] Some people can get a thrill

[00:04:07] knitting sweaters and setting still.

[00:04:07] That's okay for some people

[00:04:07] who don't know they're alive.

[00:04:07] Some people can thrive and bloom

[00:04:07] living life in the living room.

[00:04:07] That's perfect for some people

[00:04:07] of one hundred and five.

[00:04:07] But I at least gotta try

[00:04:07] when I think of all the sights that I gotta see

[00:04:07] and all the places I gotta play,

[00:04:07] all the things that I gotta be at.

[00:04:07] Come on, papa, what do you say?

[00:04:07] Some people can be content

[00:04:07] playing bingo and paying rent.

[00:04:07] That's peachy for some people,

[00:04:07] for some hum-drum people to be,

[00:04:07] but some people ain't me!

[00:04:07] I had a dream,

[00:04:07] a wonderful dream, papa,

[00:04:07] all about June in the Orpheum circuit.

[00:04:07] Gimme a chance and I know I can work it.

[00:04:07] I had a dream.

[00:04:07] Just as real as can be, papa.

[00:04:07] There I was in Mr. Orpheum's office

[00:04:07] and he was saying to me, "Rose,

[00:04:07] get yourself some new orchestrations,

[00:04:07] new routines and red velvet curtains.

[00:04:07] Get a feathered hat for the baby;

[00:04:07] photographs in front of the theatre.

[00:04:07] Get an agent and in jig time

[00:04:07] you'll be being booked in the big time."

[00:04:07] Oh, what a dream.

[00:04:07] A wonderful dream, papa.

[00:04:07] And all that I need is eighty-eight bucks, papa.

[00:04:07] That's what he said, papa.

[00:04:07] Only eighty-eight bucks.

[00:04:07] "You ain't gettin' eighty-eight cents from me, Rose."

[00:04:07] "Well, I'll get it someplace else! But I'll get it! And get my kids out!"

[00:04:07] Goodbye to blueberry pie.

[00:04:07] Good ridance to all the socials I had to go to,

[00:04:07] all the lodges I had to play,

[00:04:07] all the shriners I said hello to.

[00:04:07] Hey, L.A., I'm comin' your way!

[00:04:07] Some people sit on their butts;

[00:04:07] got the dream, yeah, but not the guts.

[00:04:07] That's living for some people,

[00:04:07] for some hum-drum people I suppose.

[00:04:07] Well, they can stay and rot!

[00:04:07] But not Rose!
