This Could Be the One

Well I've been trying for so long to be a hit makin' man

But every record that I've made so far wound up in the garbage can

Well I've tried every gimmick you can think of

There's nothing that I haven't done

Ah but look out world, this could be the one

I wish I had a dollar for every record that I've made

The only trouble that I had was tryin' to get them played

Well I've bugged every dee-jay from coast to coast

When they see me coming they run

Ah but look out world, this could be the one

I said, this could, could be the one

There's nothin' I ain't done

Well this could, could be the one

Well my agent sent me a letter today

And he sounded mighty sore

He said if this record ain't a hit

Boy, you ain't gonna cut no more

Well if I don't make the charts

It's gonna break my heart

I'll have to go out and get me a gun

Ah but look out world, this could be the one

Yeah, this could, could be the one

Oh yeah, there's nothin' I ain't done

This could, could be the one

Well my agent sent me a letter today

And he sounded mighty sore

He said if this record ain't a hit

Boy, you ain't gonna cut no more

Well if I don't make the charts

It's gonna break my heart

I'll have to go out and get me a gun

Oh please world, it's gotta be the one

I got my fingers crossed

You know my car payment's due

All I got is my last chance...
