[Intro]
[Verse]
I had record player that played the blues
and front porch where Iâd get my daily news
they say faith that s believing when you aint got any proof
But I had a record player that told the truth
[Verse]
I have a good Dad. When I was 12 years old
He gave me Harvest, Blonde on Blonde, and Rubber Soul
He said âhere, this is some rock n roll that helped me in my youthâ
He had a record player that told the truth
[Chorus]
Iâd listen to the songs that I heard
I found religion and wisdom in the words
On every crackle of vinyl when the needle hit the groove
I had a record player that told the truth
[Verse]
I had a girlfriend, she liked the Band
Weâd go to her momâs place, sheâd take my hand
And lead me up the fire escape and slow dance on the roof
She had a record player that told the truth
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
Iâd listen to the songs that weâd play
Pick a side and just let it ride⦠away
On every crackle of vinyl when the needle hit the groove
I have a record player that told the truth
[Outro]
I had a record player that told the truth
