Why did you come here, what do you need
GFCD
Don't look at me like you want me to plead
GFCG
My friends are dying to make rock and roll stand
GFCG
While we've been living in a country rock band
Chorus:
FCG
We've got to slow down, calm down
FCG
We got to get off of this merry-go-round
FCG
Where did you go, Marilyn Monroe
FCG
If you see James Dean, tell him I said hello
FCG
Janis sang here, Jimi did too
GFCC/BC/AG
They're saving a place there for me and you
EmCDG
There's gonna be a rock and roll holiday
CDG
We've got to get there in time to play
EmC
Tune up the fiddle, rosin the bow
GCC/BC/AG
We could be the only country band on a rock and roll show
EmG
We've got to get up, no time to hit up
CGDG
There's another crowd waiting for the music to play
Chorus:
FCG
Slow down - come down
FCC/BC/AD
Don't take a ride on death's merry - go - round
