Song Lyrics....

Post by gweilgi »

With abject apologies to the memory of Janis...

Oh lord won't you buy me a Patek Philippe.
My friends all wear Rolex, I must make amends.
Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends.
So oh lord won't you buy me a Patek Philippe.

Oh lord won't you buy me a Ulysse Nardin.
Dialing for Dollars is trying to find me.
I wait for delivery each day until 3.
So oh lord won't you buy me a Ulysse Nardin.

Oh lord won't you buy me a watch with a crown.
I'm counting on you lord, please don't let me down.
Prove that you love me and buy the next watch.
Oh lord won't you buy me a watch with a crown.

Everybody, Oh lord won't you buy me a Patek Philippe.
My friends all wear Rolex, I must make amends.
Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends.
So oh lord won't you buy me a Patek Philippe.

Very good.

Janis Joplin. What a voice.

I still listen to Cheap Thrills by Big Brother And The Holding Company.

I'll tell you a story...

Back in the days when the Internet and email were fairly new I corresponded with Sam Andrew for a while. A friend of mine who had no connection was passionate about Janis and BBHC. We left a message on their website one night with my address and Sam got back to me. Really nice guy - he even sent us a couple of CDs, one of which I still have - Live at Winterland '68.
