Neil Young - Payola Blues lyrics

This one's for you Al Freed, Wherever you go, whatever you do 'Cause the things they're doing today Will make a saint out of you Payola blues. I've got the payola blues Even though I already paid my dues. Listen to me Mr. D.J., hear what I've got to say If a man is making music, they ought to let his record play. Payola blues No matter where I go I never hear my record on the radio. Well, here's three thousand, that ought to get it on. Well, thanks a lot man! I love your new song. Payola blues No matter where I go I never hear my record on the radio. And it goes like this. I got a brand new record company, new manager too. Got a great new record, I can't get through to you. Payola blues No matter where I go I never hear my record on the radio. How about this new Mercedes Benz, that ought to get it on. Well, thanks a lot man! I'll play it all day long. Payola blues No matter where I go I never hear my record on the radio. I've got the payola blues, payola blues I'm paying those payola blues No matter where I go I never hear my record on the radio.
