Picture Show Lyrics - The Blue Dogs

A young man from a small town 

With a very large imagination 

Lay alone is his room with his radio on 

Looking for another station 

When the static from the Mouthpiece 

Gave way to the sound below 

James Dean went out to Hollywood 

And put his picture is a picture show 

And it's Oh Daddy get off of your knees 

Mama why'd you have to go 

Your Darlin' Jim is out on a limb 

I put my picture in a picture show 

Put my picture in a picture show 

Hamburgers Cheeseburger 

Wilbur and Orville Wright 

John Garfield is the afternoon 

Montgomery Clift at night 

When the static from the mouthpiece 

Gave way to the sound below 

James Dean went out to Hollywood 

And put his picture in a picture show 

A Mocca Man in a wigwam 

Sitting on a reservation 

With a big black hole 

In the belly of his soul 

Waiting on an explanation 

While the white man 

Sits on his fat can 

And takes pictures of the Navajo 

Every time he clicks 

His Kodak pics 

He steals a little bit of soul
