There'll Be Some Changes Made
(Billy Higgins, W. Benton Overstreet)
(parody lyrics by Chet Atkins,
Mark Knopfler, Margaret Archer)
There'll be a change in the weather
And a change in the scene
How is that?
I'm gonna start wearin' leather
And change my routine
I'll wear dark glasses maybe a toupee
I'll get down and boogie and become risqu탩
I'll start wearin' make-up like Jackson and Prince
You'll see me ridin' in my Mercedes Benz
Nobody wants you when you just play guitar
There'll be some changes made tomorrow
There'll be some changes made
Y'know Chet, you're never gonna get
To play that rock & roll
Why is that?
You're kinda country, a little bit old
That hurts
But your money for nothin'
And your chicks for free
Well, them groupie girls
Ain't what they're cracked up to be
Well, not all of them anyway
Well, I'd really like to find out
For myself, don't you know
I've had a kind of quiet life
Down here on music row
Oh, I know
Well uh?like a man, what do you think?
Man, I don't know
I really think that I can make the grade
Daddy-o, Daddy-o
There'll be some changes made
I think I was sharp there
Just play one, just play
Yeah
You've played before
Watch it, watch it
Stand back boy
Well, I'd really like to find out for myself
Don't you know, 'cause
Like I said I've had a sheltered life
Down here on music row
I don't believe so
Well, what?what do you think Mark?
I don't know
I really think that I can make the grade
There'll be some changes
Now listen to this
I'm gonna play some rock and roll
There'll be some changes made, yeah
There'll be some changes made
Now let's all play
Anybody hurt?
I learned this at?at summer Bible school
Well, I never could trust a saint
I'm only a part-time saint
Pretty good but you're no Mark Knopfler
What about that one there?
Not all that bad
I like that
I like that
Don't make me look bad now
Don't make me look bad
Respect for your elders
There'll be some changes made
