Les Bohem - The Jimi Hendrix Story Lyrics




I'm workin' on a story
Called the Jimi Hendrix story
It's all about a young man with his dream
Made his money in Seattle
And old Jimi's from Seattle
And this young man was a young man with a scheme
Make the Jimi Hendrix story
Rock n roll in all its glory
Put his life right up there on the silver screen
But you gotta to use the music
And if you want to use it
There's a man about a dog you've got to see
When Jimi came back to Seattle
Back from London to Seattle
He bought a six pack went to see his dad
When he died he left his music
All that loud and gentle music
To this man the only family he had
And Al Hendrix now an old man
Just a sad and lonely old man
He goes bowling with the league on thursday nights
So this wanna be producer
Gonna be a bold seducer
Gonna show up at the lanes and get those rights

He's a paratrooper dropping in freefall
Now he's setting his guitar on fire just to show them all

Jimi died when just a young man
And now this other young man
Swapping jokes with Al when his league game is done
Pretty soon the two were bowling
Though this young man hated bowling
And Al thought he'd found himself a second son
Purple Haze The Wind Cries Mary
Little Wing and Foxy Lady
Al soon told the young man he could have them all
And this young man from Seattle
Just like Jimi's from Seattle
Walked away and left Al holding that big ball

He's a paratrooper dropping in freefall
Now he's setting his guitar on fire just to show them all

Well they never made that movie
Though I think there was a movie
But they didn't use the songs Al gave away
And that young man from Seattle
He's still living in Seattle
There should be a Goddamn price he has to pay
