lyrics

UP THER WITH 'EM
(Ian M. Bruce)

I always loved the labels
That black and shiny groove
The way those discs would spin around
As the auto-changer moved
The player came to life every time I pressed the start
I felt the way that some folks must when Cupid fires a dart.

My first was on Columbia - The Shadows' Apache.
I still play it from time to time
Though it's now kinda scratchy
I was 4 years old
My love was brand new
I never dreamed that one day I'd be making records too

Now I'm up there with 'em
I'm up there with 'em
I'm up there with The Beatles and Stones
Now I'm up there with 'em
I'm up there with 'em
I'm up there with The Beatles and Stones on my shelf....

Well we all have our dreams and some of them come true
I stand here as living proof that a few of them do
It's not that I sold a million though I'd love that there's no doubt
It was the first time the needle fell and my own voice came out

Well it's been a simple life
I've made friends
But like all good things
It must come to an end
Just like we all must I have up and died
I got loads of famous angels up here by my side
