It's on "Two Steps Forward, One Step Back". Thanks for the help |

I said, "Bromberg, you've had it." Well, hello, all you people everywhere. Yes, hello, all you people everywhere. Well some of you are happy, some of you are sad. Gonna tell you about the good times that I had. Well, lucky me, I never had a friend. Yes, lucky me, I never had a friend. Well a friend is all you need, if on one you depend, Well a friend in need is the only kinds [?sic] I'll find. Well, this morning I had womens [?sic] on my mind. Yes, this morning I had womens on my mind. Well, yesterday was money, tomorrow will be wine. Essential things is [?sic] always on my mind. Now some gangs beat you with a rubber hose. Yeah, some gangs beat you with a rubber hose. I said, some gangs will beat you, with a rubber hose. But our gang beat you with Dave Bromberg's nose. So you see me and I seem to satisfy. Hey, you see me and I seem to satisfy. Well I never had a place to go, never had a place to hide. I'm too busy livin' everyone else's life. Wonderful guitar licks in this song, but - wondering what happened? Jason |
