NEIL YOUNG lyrics : "Payola Blues"

This one's for you Al Freed,
Wherever you go, whatever you do
'Cause the things they're doing today

Will make a saint out of you
Payola blues.
I've got the payola blues

Even though I already paid my dues.

Listen to me Mr. D.J.,

hear what I've got to say
If a man is making music,
they ought to let his record play.

Payola blues
No matter where I go
I never hear my record on the radio.


Well, here's three thousand,
that ought to get it on.

Well, thanks a lot man!
I love your new song.
Payola blues

No matter where I go
I never hear my record on the radio.


And it goes like this.

I got a brand new record company,

new manager too.
Got a great new record,
I can't get through to you.

Payola blues
No matter where I go
I never hear my record on the radio.


How about this new Mercedes Benz,
that ought to get it on.

Well, thanks a lot man!
I'll play it all day long.
Payola blues

No matter where I go
I never hear my record on the radio.


I've got the payola blues, payola blues
I'm paying those payola blues
No matter where I go

I never hear my record on the radio.
