Thread Name: Review: Summer wages -- sad? (Ian & Sylvia song)
Subject: RE: Review: Summer wages -- sad?
The song is about the kind of people that I don't hang around with.

...Never leave your woman alone
With your friends around to steal her...

Who'd want a woman like that?


...
Its been six long months
And more since I've seen her
Maybe she's gambled and gone
Like summer wages...

again, who'd want a woman that wouldn't wait for you?


...She's a woman so fine I may never try to find her...

He must be a sorry SOB that he is too chicken to go find her.
