The WOGSTOCK Song
written by Rick Vanover (© 1997 Rick Vanover)
Intro: [C] [G] [C]
[C]Well, they call him the 'Wise Old Geezer'
And he's s[F]haring his heart and m[C]ind.
He says, "A[F]ny friend who's a f[C]riend of
John's is bound to be a friend of m[G]ine.[G7}
And they're s[F]leep'n on the f[C]loors.
And they're s[F]leep'n in the h[C]all.
So much t[F]alk'n to do and f[C]at to chew
Don't t[G]hink they're really sleep'n at a[C]ll.
{chorus}
[C]Hey, C[F]yber friends - [G]Welcome to W[C]ogstock.
We're w[F]all to wall
Hope y[G]ou all brought some c[C]lean socks.
Well, i[F]t's a big time j[G]amm'n to Prine.
T[C]rad'n old stories and s[F]ongs.
Hey, C[C]yber friends - [G]Welcome to W[C]ogstock.
[F] [G] [C]
{end chorus}
There's Space Monkey play'n his guitar
And Barbara Lewis is sing'n along.
Sam Stone's stand'n in the corner alone
He forgot the words to the song.
And everybody has a story -
'Bout how far they have come,
Since the first time they heard Prine
Sing'n 'Paradise' on the run.
-repeat chorus-
Well, there's a candle in the window.
I hear Indiana's on the line.
And Geezer's call'n all the faithful
To gather in the name of Prine.
They're roar'n down the highways.
And scream'n through the air.
May lose a job to answer the call -
Don't thing they really care.
-repeat chorus-
-repeat last verse of chorus-
[G] [C]
