Blow Up Your TV (John Prine 19??)
G C
She was a level-headed dancer on the road to alcohol
D G
I was just a soldier on my way to Montreal
C
Well, she pressed her chest against me, ‘bout the time the jukebox broke
D
She give me a peck on the back of the neck, and these are the words
G
she spoke
G
Blow Up Your TV, throw away your paper
D G
Go to the country, build you a home
Plant a little garden, eat a lot of peaches
D G
Try and find Jesus on your own
I sat there at the table and I acted real naive
Cause I knew that topless lady, she had something up her sleeve
She danced around the room awhile and she did the hoochy coo
Yea sing a song all night long tellin' me what to do
Blow Up Your TV, throw away your paper
Go to the country, build you a home
Plant a little garden, eat a lot of peaches
Try and find Jesus on your own
But I was young and hungry and about to leave that place
Just as I was going she looked me in the face
I said "You must know the answer” She said "No, but I'll give it a try"
And to this day we've been livin' our way, an’ here is the reason why
We blew up the TV, threw away the paper
Went to the country, built us a home
Had a lotta children, fed 'em on peaches
They all found Jesus on their own
