All My Heroes
Listening to Elvis back in '63
"Blue Suede Shoes," "Don't Be Cruel"
At ten years old, I had no idea
That a young man from Memphis
Would Change the world
He changed the world, changed the world
Young man from Memphis, changed the world

There was a man from Liverpool
He refused to obey the rules
"Give Peace A Chance" I heard him sing
Young Lennon, you changed everything
you changed the world, changed my world
Young Lennon, you changed the world

All my heroes turn to ghosts
That's just the way it goes
At least the ones who touch us most, I suppose
And I suppose all my heroes turn to ghosts

In '67, he was twenty-five
He made the music come alive
"The Wind Cried Mary," set my heart on "Fire"
In just four years that young man changed the world
Started a fire, changed the world
Voodoo Child, you changed the world

I still remember how my soul was moved
When I heard the lady sing the blues
Took a "Piece Of My Heart," nothing I could do
Lady Pearl, you changed the world

All my heroes turn to ghosts
That's just the way it goes
At least the ones who touch us most, I suppose
And I suppose all my heroes turn to ghosts
