Story behind the song
When the old bluesmen first began to sing of their woes, the dangers of dissent were such that they had to invent a code in which to speak. In doing so they changed the language of popular song, and ultimately paved the way for rocknroll. In comparison, I've just clapped my hands a lot and had a jolly good moan.
Lyrics
I'm veering outta here and taking the track I'm leaving this road and I ain't coming back I'm heading out I'm heading out Been so long locked in this life That I've forgotten what it's about They took and took I've nothing left to give It's money in your pocket but it ain't no way to live I'm heading out I'm heading out Been so long locked in this life That I've forgotten what it's about I've seen 'em laughing at the top of the tree But they've got all they're gonna get from me I'm heading out I'm heading out Been so long locked in this life That I've forgotten what it's about WORDS AND MUSIC BY JOE SOLO 20/10/07
