Jimmy Webb Song Seller Lyrics

[Intro]
Woo!

[Verse 1]
This is just a little memo
To remind you of my demo
Put it in the mail a week ago
Haven't heard it on the radio though

[Chorus]
Good morning, song seller
I suppose we've got it made
You're such a charming fellow
Why can't you get this record played?
Record played?
Record played?
Record played?
Record played?
[Verse 2]
I got two sleeves I tore off The Beatles
Had 'em sewn on with a magic needle
Now, I can play like George and Ringo
Haven't heard it on the radio, no

[Chorus]
Good morning, song seller
I suppose we've got it made
You're such a charming fellow
Why can't you get this record played? Record played?
Record played?
Record played?
Record played?

[Bridge]
Waiting around for the devil
I'm gonna make me a record deal
I'm gonna need me a real big wheel
Ooh, somebody tell it to me real, now

[Verse 3]
I'll cut you a track that's truly truckin'
If you want me to, I'll sing about f*cking
Sing about it fast, sing about it slow
Wanna hear it in the radio, though
[Chorus]
Good morning, song seller
I suppose we've got it made
You're such a charming fellow
Why can't you get this record played?
Record played?
Record played?
Record played?
Record played?
