'Too Many Poets'

Bootleg Train (Hermanns Mentor)


 

 

Key to authors' pseudonyms

 Bootleg Train or (I've Got) The Procol Harum Bootleg (Video) Blues

Ain't gonna ride that bootleg train
My tapes are burnin' in that flame
Throwin' my Walkman down the drain
Ain't gonna ride that bootleg train

They did a tour in Ninety-One
But of video, I have none
I wish they'd see the time has come
They did a tour in Ninety-One

To think that I scan Goldmine mag
I seek and search and smoke a fag
Until my eyelids start to sag
I'm tired of lookin' in that rag!

I'm gonna lose these bootleg blues
I've got so many tapes from which to choose
I'll start a club and charge them dues
I'm gonna lose these bootleg blues

They did a tour in Ninety-Two
I even saw the TV crew
I had a cam'ra in my shoe!
They did a tour in Ninety-Two
