Lodi Lyrics


Just about a year ago
I set out on the road
Seekin' my fame and fortune
Lookin' for a pot of gold
Thing got bad and things got worse
I guess you know the tune
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again

Rode in on the Greyhound
I'll be walkin' out if I go
I was just passin' through
Must be seven months or more
Ran out of time and money
Looks like they took my friends
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again

A man from the magazine
Said I was on my way
Somewhere I lost connections
Ran out of songs to play
I came into town, a one night stand
Looks like my plans fell through
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again

If I only had a dollar
For every song I've sung
Every time I had to play
While people sat there drunk
You know, I'd catch the next train
Back to where I live
Oh Lord, stuck in a Lodi again
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in a Lodi again

Lodi Song Chart
  • This song is a reflection on John Fogerty's days with The Golliwogs, an early version of Creedence Clearwater Revival. They had to struggle for success, playing wherever they could with dilapidated equipment and an often indifferent audience. He did not want a return to the Bad Old Days.
  • Lodi is a city in California located in the central valley, about 30 miles south of Sacramento and 75 or 100 miles east of San Francisco/Oakland. Fogerty and his earlier band often performed in "nowhere towns" like Lodi.
  • Fogerty sometimes covered this at concerts after he became a solo artist. (thanks, Brett - Edmonton, Canada, for above 2)
  • Drummer Doug Clifford claimed the band played a show in Lodi in their early days. Said Clifford: "There were nine people in there, they were all locals, they were all drunk and all they did all night was tell us to turn it down."
  • Al Wilson recorded this. His version was issued on Soul City Records in America and on Liberty Records in the United Kingdom. It was played extensively in the few underground "Northern Soul" clubs of England during the late 1960s and early 70s, getting its first exposure at the famous Twisted Wheel Club Allnighters in Manchester, England. (thanks, Gra - Stafford, England)
  • In a radio interview, John Fogerty said when he was young his parents took him and his brother to camp at Lodi lake (called Smith lake then) and they hated camping there. So later on they wrote a song about Lodi using their old hated for the place. (thanks, George - Stockton, CA)
  • Tesla did an acoustic version of this song that was included on their 1990 live album, Five Man Acoustical Jam. Each band member got to pick a song to cover for the set, and Tesla drummer Troy Luccketta chose "Lodi" since he was born there.

    Let's Get It Lyrics


    Let's Get It, nigga, let's get it
    If you about this money, let's get it
    Boss up

    I got the drugs and I got a plug, they checking our tickets
    Bitches they stare at my pants and be like boy what’s in them britches?
    Keep red bottoms on the bottom my shoe, they like how we kick it
    I had a boss talk with my crew, and I told them niggas let’s get it
    Let's get it, let's get it
    Let's get it, let's get it
    I got the drugs and I got a plug, they checking our tickets
    I had a boss talk with my crew and I told them niggas let's get it

    I'm in a boat, yeah, I’m in a boat, yeah, I'm in a boat
    I'm cooking up blow, I'm cooking up blow, I'm cooking up blow
    A half a brick for my body before I come to your show
    A half a brick or better before you come to my door
    Let's get it, she know I'm a D-boy
    Shinin', cuttin' it, Bruce Leroy
    My Forgis, my Forgis, put the baby on her face
    Fucking her bush, this be the closed casket
    Go get me a coffin, let's get it, let's get it, let’s get it
    These bitches, they cook naked, showing they ass and titties
    And I know that she with it
    And before I said something, she said let's get it

    I got the drugs and I got a plug, they checking our tickets
    Bitches they stare at my pants and be like boy what’s in them britches?
    Keep red bottoms on the bottom my shoe, they like how we kick it
    I had a boss talk with my crew, and I told them niggas let’s get it
    Let's get it, let's get it
    Let's get it, let's get it
    I got the drugs and I got a plug, they checking our tickets
    I had a boss talk with my crew and I told them niggas let's get it

    All of my bitches, they know what it is, they know we gon get it
    I'll probably just get the head, she ain’t got no ass and titties
    Smoking a joint while she sucking me off, blow the smoke in her face
    Watching her, then I got to go, nigga got money to make
    Money be coming and so do these bitches
    These niggas wearing fake Rollies, man I hate this shit, take it
    The OG to the kush, we got it

    Told her pull up and let’s get it
    Girl I’m not your man, I’m your nigga

    Let's get it, let's get it
    I got the drugs and I got a plug, they checking our tickets
    I had a boss talk with my crew and I told them niggas let's get it

    Leave out the club, I’m smoking on drugs, a couple of bitches
    See that new nine, eleven, you don’t own the color, that’s Wiz’s
    One in my bed, and one on my line, like I’m going fishing
    Kush in my lungs, I smoke when I want, they want me for Christmas
    Roll up my weed, she cook and she clean, she doing my dishes
    Came over, she pulled my dick out, then she started blowing it kisses
    Sprayed it all over her face, now the bitch watching my children
    Probably be in outer space, standing on all of these millions
    Let’s get it nigga, ass fat but her titties bigger
    Bitch you from the 90’s, I’m tryna put some dick up in your life
    Girl let’s get it! Ho

  • The title track of Ca$h Out's Let's Get It album, the song features guest appearances from Wiz Khalifa and Ty Dolla $ign. "Wiz actually came to me when I was on tour with Ty and he was like, 'Man. That 'Let's Get It' song? I really like that,'" he revealed to The Boombox . "It was a shock to me because that was the song I had just put out two months before on the internet, just dropped it and he wasn't even talking 'bout 'She Twerkin,' he's talking 'bout 'Let's Get It.'"

    "He's like, 'I'ma f--k with that. Send it to me.' And with Ty being a part of the same Taylor Gang clique, he jumped on there too," Ca$h Out continued. "It was so organic. Artists I look up to… Like, I'm trying to get to Wiz level and they see me on tour like, 'This song is hard as f--k!' That really excites me. As an artist and as a fan too, let's me know that I'm doing something right when I go in the booth and make these songs."

    Bad Moon Rising Lyrics


    I see the bad moon arising.
    I see trouble on the way.
    I see earthquakes and lightnin'.
    I see those bad times today.

    Don't go around tonight,
    Well it's bound to take your life,
    There's a bad moon on the rise.

    I hear hurricanes a blowing.
    I know the end is coming soon.
    I fear rivers over flowing.
    I hear the voice of rage and ruin.

    Well don't go around tonight,
    Well it's bound to take your life,
    There's a bad moon on the rise.

    Hope you got your things together.
    Hope you are quite prepared to die.
    Looks like we're in for nasty weather.
    One eye is taken for an eye.

    Well don't go around tonight,
    Well it's bound to take your life,
    There's a bad moon on the rise.

    Don't come around tonight,
    Well it's bound to take your life,
    There's a bad moon on the rise.

    Bad Moon Rising Song Chart
  • In Rolling Stone issue 649, John Fogerty explained that the lyrics were inspired by a movie called The Devil And Daniel Webster, in which a hurricane wipes out most of a town. This is where he got the idea for the words "I feel the hurricane blowin', I hope you're quite prepared to die." Overall, he said the song is about the "apocalypse that was going to be visited upon us."
  • This became the theme song of the demonstrators during the People's Park riots in Berkeley, California, in 1969.
  • This was used in two science-fiction movies of the 1980s: An American Werewolf In London (1981) and Twilight Zone: The Movie (1982). In the former, it plays as the main character is awaiting a full moon and wondering if he will turn into a werewolf.
  • This contains a classic misheard lyric. The line "There's a bad moon on the rise" is often heard as "There's a bathroom on the right." Not only do many people sing the wrong lyrics, but John Fogerty himself sang the "bathroom on the right" lyric once during the "Premonition" concert. It can be heard after the last verse of the song quite plainly.

    Fogerty would often have fun with this trope, sometimes pointing to a nearby bathroom from the stage when he got to the famous misheard line. (thanks, Gene - Hammond, IN)
  • The music makes this sound like a happy song, but the lyrics are very bleak, describing events that indicate a coming apocalypse.
  • As a result of this song, American football player Andre Rison's nickname was "Bad Moon," as in "Bad Moon Risin'." Rison was an all-pro wide receiver, but is also famous for having his house burned down by Lisa (Left Eye) Lopes, a singer with TLC who was his girlfriend at the time.
  • This has been covered by Nirvana, Bruce Springsteen, Bo Diddley, Type O Negative, 16 Horsepower, Reels, Spitballs, Blue Aeroplanes, Lagwagon, Battlefield Band, Ducky Boys, Acoustic Shack, Ventures, Meteors, and Rasputina. (thanks, Brett - Edmonton, Canada)
  • Argentine soccer fans came up with a new version of this song after their team advanced to the World Cup finals in 2014 while the host country, Brazil, was eliminated in the semi-final. Set to the tune of this song, Argentines chanted, "Brasil, decime qué se siente tener en casa tu papa," which means "Brazil, tell me how it feels to be bossed around in your own home."

    Even the team members were heard singing this taunt, but in the end Argentina did not take home the trophy, as they lost in the final to Germany, the team that beat Brazil.

    Jack Daniels & Jesus Lyrics


    This dirt road communion sure won’t lead me to revival
    Between the black label and the letters in red
    I’ve felt what livin’ is and what it’s like to live dead

    I’ve taken a ride in the devil’s Cadillac
    I’ve been so high thought I wasn’t comin’ back
    And just when I think I’m too far-gone
    A ringing in my head’s the 23rd psalm
    I’ve seen the light, I’ve seen the darkness
    Only God knows where my heart is
    I’ve got my strength, and Lord knows I’ve got my weakness
    Oh, I’m lost somewhere between Jack Daniel’s and Jesus

    It’s my fault that I ain’t called my momma in a month on Sundays
    She’d smell the whiskey through that phone
    I can’t stand to hear her heart break
    Next week I see my brother Casey for the first time
    Since it all went down and I blacked his eye the night after our daddy died

    I’ve taken a ride in the devil’s Cadillac
    I’ve been so high thought I wasn’t comin’ back
    And just when I think I’m too far-gone
    A ringing in my head’s the 23rd psalm
    I’ve seen the light, I’ve seen the darkness
    Only God knows where my heart is
    I’ve got my strength, and Lord knows I’ve got my weakness
    Oh, I’m lost somewhere between Jack Daniel’s and Jesus

    I ain’t afraid to admit I’ve hit rock bottom
    If you wanna see a lifetime full of sins
    Just look at me, I’ve got ‘em

    I’ve taken a ride in the devil’s Cadillac
    I’ve been so high thought I wasn’t comin’ back
    And just when I think I’m too far-gone
    A ringing in my head’s the 23rd psalm
    I’ve seen the light, I’ve seen the darkness
    Only God knows where my heart is
    I’ve got my strength, and Lord knows I’ve got my weakness
    Oh, I’m lost somewhere between Jack Daniel’s and Jesus

  • Chase Rice is known for his love of partying and alcohol but this piano ballad shows another side of him.

    I've seen the light, I've seen the darkness
    Only God knows where my heart is
    I've got my strength and Lord knows I've got my weakness
    Oh, I'm lost somewhere between Jack Daniels and Jesus


    "It's my life in a song," he told Taste of Country . "It's a pretty down time in my life."
  • Rice told Radio.com this is the most honest song on Ignite the Night. "My brother's name is in the song. I didn't hold back at all on that one," he said. "When it comes to music, I want to show them exactly who I am,. It goes into depth about my family, my dad passing away, drinking too much sometimes."

    "For me, alcoholism has never been a problem but there are people out there who have related to 'Jack Daniels and Jesus' who have said its changed their lives," he continued. "They said it made them throw the bottle down. If I held back on that song maybe it would have never happened and their lives would have never been changed. That's why I never choose to hold back on any of my songs."

    This Night Lyrics


    Didn't I say
    I wasn't ready for romance?
    Didn't we promise
    We would only be friends?
    And so we danced
    Though it was only a slow dance,
    I started breaking my promises right there and then

    Didn't I swear
    There would be no complications?
    Didn't you want
    Someone who's seen it all before?
    Now that you're here
    It's not the same situation,
    Suddenly I don't remember the rules anymore

    This Night is mine
    It's only you and I
    Tomorrow is a long time away
    This night can last forever

    I've been around
    Someone like me should know better
    Falling in love
    Would be the worst thing I could do
    Didn't I say
    I needed time to forget her?
    Aren't you running
    From someone who's not over you?

    How many nights
    Have I been lonely without you?
    I tell myself
    How much I really don't care
    How many nights
    Have I been thinking about you?
    Wanting to hold you
    But knowing you would not be there

    But this night you're mine
    It's only you and I
    I'll tell you to forget yesterday
    This night we are together

    This night is mine
    It's only you and I
    Tomorrow is a long time away
    This night can last forever

    This night
    Ooh
    Ooh

    Tomorrow is such a long time away
    This night can last forever

    No More Lyrics


    The light is shining
    Still I'm not so surprised
    One thousand voice mails
    For one thousand lies

    Blind faith, lost trust
    All along it was plain to see
    Years passed, lost touch
    Leads the path to insanity

    Take another shot, show me what you got
    It was never gonna last forever
    Open your eyes, try and realize
    Once is enough so tonight now I say

    No More, from a voice that breaks the awkward silence
    No more, never heard so loud before
    Made the same mistakes a thousand times
    Never meant to be like this so I say
    No more tonight
    And it feels all right

    Dark nights, long passed
    Waking up from a pointless dream
    Brighter days, brighter times
    Hides the fatal reality

    Questions, answers
    False addiction to nothing real
    Lights fade, crushed to dust
    Desperation in tragedy

    Take another shot, show me what you got
    It was never gonna last forever
    Open your eyes, try and realize
    Once is enough so tonight now I say

    No more, from a voice that breaks the awkward silence
    No more, never heard so loud before
    Made the same mistakes a thousand times
    Never meant to be like this so I say
    No more tonight
    And it feels all right

    (No more) Same old game we play together
    (No more) Time will pass, we'll still remember
    (No more) But tonight this game is over
    (No more) Strangers in the night forever

    No more, from a voice that breaks the awkward silence
    No more, never heard so loud before
    Made the same mistakes a thousand times
    Never meant to be like this so I say
    No more tonight
    And it feels all right

    And it feels all right

  • Guitarist Herman Li explained the song's meaning to AMH Network : "The lyrics are not about a sad relationship breakup," he said. "It's more like a 'I don't really care about it, why did I care in the first place' kind of song."
  • This features guest vocals by Matt Heafy of Trivium. It was one of three Maximum Overload tracks that he contributed towards. Guitarist Herman Li explained to MetalInsider : "The way we were recording the new album, we got to the point where we needed different kind of backing vocalists in certain songs, like 'The Game,' 'Defenders,' and also 'No More.' Somehow, we just thought of Matt's name all of a sudden, and we just asked him basically."

    "He was really cool, he recorded so much stuff, so many different vocals and rough, and harmonized his own voice, and black metal, thrash metal versions, it was really awesome that he was able to take the time while he was off tour to do the backing vocals spots for our songs."

    There's this girl that's been on my mind
    All the time, Sussudio oh oh
    Now she don't even know my name
    But I think she likes me just the same
    Sussudio oh oh

    Oh if she called me I'd be there
    I'd come running anywhere
    She's all I need, all my life
    I feel so good if I just say the word
    Sussudio, just say the word
    Oh Sussudio

    Now I know that I'm too young
    My love has just begun
    Sussudio oh oh
    Ooh give me a chance, give me a sign
    I'll show her anytime
    Sussudio oh oh

    Ah, I've just got to have her, have her now
    I've got to get closer but I don't know how
    She makes me nervous and makes me scared
    But I feel so good if I just say the word
    Sussudio just say the word

    Sussudio Song Chart
  • On a 1997 episode of VH1 Storytellers, Collins said: "This is one of those examples of improvising lyrics. You know, sometimes you can use the lyric, other times you're in big trouble, because what you write doesn't mean anything. So I set up this drum-machine pad, and I got some chords, and I started to sing into the microphone, and this word came out, which was "sus-sussudio." It just literally came out, at the time... that was back when I could dance, so I kind of knew I had to find something else for that word, then I went back and tried to find another word that scanned as well as "sussudio," and I couldn't find one, so I went back to "sussudio."

    Then I thought OK, let's give it a meaning, what is it? The lyrics are based on this schoolboy crush on this girl at school. It's happening with my daughter now, she's eight years old and she loves this boy, but she won't tell him, like in the lyrics this boy loves her but they don't talk about it... how do they know? 'I know she likes me, I know she likes me, doesn't know my name, doesn't know I exist, but I know she likes me'... So that's what the song is about, so "sussudio" became a name for this person, and since it's become a name for a horse. My older daughter's got a horse called Sussudio, and I'm sure there are children all over the world with the name Sussudio, so I apologize for that."
  • As was the rest of the album, this was recorded in Collins' living room shortly after he married his second wife.
  • When this was released in 1985, critics assailed Collins for its similarity with Prince's hit "1999." Collins responded by saying that he was a "big Prince fan" and that his original version of "Sussudio" sounded even more like Prince.
  • "Sussudio" is a girl's name in the lyrics, but it is also the name Collins gave to the song's drum track.
  • This was the second US #1 hit from the No Jacket Required album. The first was "One More Night."
  • Collins recalled to The Mail on Sunday: "This is me trying to write a dance tune! It always fascinated me that the horn players would come in and play a song of mine and suddenly make it R&B. It was influenced by Prince, of course, and was the first time I worked with dance synth programmers."
  • Collins used The Phenix Horns on this track, who were famous for their work with Earth, Wind & Fire. Collins started working with them in 1981 when he put them on his solo track "I Missed Again" and also on the Genesis song "No Reply At All."
  • John Potoker, who was Collins' go-to guy for remixes, created the extended remix of this song that was released as a 12" single. Potoker says his work on "Sussudio" is some of his best, and that he was thrilled to learn that Collins was using this arrangement on his tour.
  • Like the clip for "One More Night," the music video was filmed at The Princess Victoria, a London pub owned by Virgin Records' founder Richard Branson. Collins and his band (guitarist Daryl Stuermer, drummer Chester Thompson, and bass player Lee Sklar) woo a bored crowd with a performance of the song.
  • In the video for Collins' ...But Seriously track "Hang In Long Enough," he and the band perform aboard a Titanic-like ship called the "S.S. Udio," a reference to this song.
  • This features in the movie American Psycho in a scene where Christian Bale's serial killer Patrick Bateman puts it on after doing a monologue about the brilliance of Phil Collins and Genesis. He says, "This is 'Sussudio.' Great, great song. Personal favorite."

    The Genesis song "In Too Deep" is also used in and discussed in the film.

    Defenders Lyrics


    Life's uncertain, a rat-race of pain
    Endlessly searching for more
    Hopeless and needless, held back the chains
    'Till we can't take anymore

    Hold on, Stay strong
    Breaking out from the past life fading
    No more, what for
    All we got is to keep on praying

    Pray for the done for, the lives in dismay
    Witness the final decay
    Suffering in silence for years we were blind
    But now we git something to say

    Hold on, stay strong
    'Till the end a fate of dying
    No more, what for
    Nothing left but to keep on fighting

    United, incited, not misguided
    We'll fight through time before our one true destiny
    Benighted, ignited, still strong and undivided
    This day foretold now here for all to see

    So free in the blue skies with time marches on
    Once more maybe we'll find our peace to behold
    Strangers in a strange world, Defenders through time
    Cursed in our kingdom of unholy fire

    Legends of darkness will be on the grave
    Spill their blood under the sun
    Voices are calling with anger and rage
    The final war now has begun

    Hold on, stay strong
    'Till the end a fate of dying
    No more, what for
    Nothing left but to keep on fighting

    United, incited, not misguided
    We'll fight through time before our one true destiny
    Benighted, ignited, still strong and undivided
    This day foretold now here for all to see

    So free in the blue skies with time marches on
    Once more maybe we'll find our peace to behold
    Strangers in a strange world, defenders through time
    Cursed in our kingdom of unholy fire

    Hear our call, save us all
    Standing tall tonight

    The flame will slowly fade away
    The shadows of our lives
    Will ash away the memories
    Before the last sunrise

    We'll keep holding on
    In the sands of changes
    Standing strong against the winds
    Until the end of time

    Hold on, stay strong
    'Till the end, not afraid of dying
    No more, what for
    Nothing left but to keep on fighting

    United, incited, not misguided
    We'll fight through time before our one true destiny
    Benighted, ignited, still strong and undivided
    This day foretold now here for all to see

    So free in the blue skies with time marches on
    Once more maybe we'll find our peace to behold
    Strangers in a strange world, defenders through time
    Cursed in our kingdom of unholy fire

    Hear our call, save us all
    Standing tall tonight
    Hear our call, save us all
    Standing tall tonight

    Defenders Song Chart
  • This rapid-fire rocker features guest backing vocals by Matt Heafy of Trivium, who also contributed to "The Game" and "No More" on Maximum Overload. In our interview with DragonForce guitarists Herman Li and Sam Totman , Li explained: "Matt had been a friend of ours for quite a few years now, and he's got a great voice and so many diverse tones. It just came about that we decided, 'Hey, why don't we just ask Matt if he'll do it?' And he did an amazing job. He did so many different voices, like death metal, black metal, pop, and thrashy metal - different backing vocals for these songs."
  • This was one of the first tracks DragonForce finished recording for Maximum Overload. Herman Li told Loudwire the story of the song: "The idea for this song was to create a contrast, by fusing some thrash metal style riffs with DragonForce's big epic choruses and high speed twin guitars solos," he said. "Our friend Matt Heafy from Trivium helped us out with some aggressive backing vocals in the pre choruses."

    "In terms of lyrics, here we went for our classic fantasy approach similar to our first album," Li added.

    I Wanna Sex You Up Song Chart
  • This song's bass line is sampled from Betty Wright's "Tonight is the Night," which chronicles a young woman's very first "intimate encounter" with a man. In that song, which was recorded during a live performance, Ms. Wright is heard telling her audience the story of how she came to write the song, and how her mother did not exactly approve of her performing it in public. According to Ms. Wright, her mother, properly mortified by the song's subject matter, righteously exclaimed, "I KNOW you're not gonna sing THAT song!" That line ("I KNOW you're not gonna sing THAT song.") can be heard throughout "I Wanna Sex You Up." (thanks, Robin - Birmingham, AL)
  • This was the debut single for both the group and the record label, Giant Records. It was a huge hit, but it did offend the sensibilities of some listeners. At a few radio stations, they referred to the song as "I Wanna Love You Up."
  • This was written for the 1991 movie New Jack City starring Wesley Snipes and Ice-T. When they were looking for songs for the film, the producers wanted the modern R&B sound - "New Jack Swing" - that artists like Bobby Brown and Jodi Watley were using. To get it, they contacted the producer/songwriter Elliott Straite, who had written the Bell Biv Devoe hit "Poison."

    They showed him the film and let him pick a scene to soundtrack; he chose one where the character Uniqua (Tracy Camilla Johns) does a striptease for Nino, the kingpin played by Snipes. He wrote this sexy song specifically for the scene.
  • Bryan Abrams, Kevin Thornton, Mark Calderon, and Sam Watters formed the group (originally called Take One) at Northwestern High School in Oklahoma City. They made their debut at a high school talent show singing a jingle from a jeans commercial. When they were starting out, the group was known for its impromptu auditions, having sung without notice to Ronnie Milsap, Huey Lewis, Sheila E, The O'Jays, Jon Bon Jovi, Kool & the Gang, and Tony! Toni! Tone!
  • Color Me Badd's next two singles went to #1 in the US - "I Adore Mi Amor" and "All 4 Love."
  • This was used on Color Me Badd's first album, and also on the New Jack City soundtrack. The version on the soundtrack is rougher and a little more raunchy, with a spoken interlude where one of the guys tells a girl to "just lay back and enjoy the ride."

    Rollin' And Tumblin' Lyrics


    I don't think I'm goin' out anymore
    You better find some other body to comfort.
    When I was trembling baby you was a diamond,
    But you ain't a diamond no more.

    So what you wanna say is my head is a hurricane
    Well l-l-l-let me sleep on that, uh huh, alright.
    You say I'm hopelessly devoted to misery
    Well I don't wanna be so devoted no more, aw yeah

    And all of my friends wanna get into heaven
    And all I keep thinkin' is "I wish you were here"
    I heard that they been callin' me "The Great Depression"
    Rollin' And Tumblin', breakin' my own heart again

    Shimmy shimmy shake baby right in my blood stream
    I don't know what it was that got in my room.
    My ticker-tape heart broke and everything shook in here
    But I learned it could be worse.

    So what you wanna say is my head is a weather-vane
    Spinning with the wind chime, right.
    Baby I was born on the fourth of July,
    Exploding like a firework, aw yeah

    And all of my friends wanna get into heaven
    And all I keep thinkin' is "I wish you were here"
    I heard that they been callin' me "The Great Depression"
    Rollin' and tumblin'

    And all of my friends wanna get into heaven
    And all I keep thinkin' is "I wish you were here"
    I heard that they been callin' me "The Great Depression"
    Rollin' and tumblin'

    So should I take everything, all your temporary medicines?
    Should I take your reds, your blues, and your cocaine?
    Should I take something to try on the weekend?
    Should I take anything, or did you mean everything?
    When I hit the wall, wrecked from it all
    You put flowers down on the cold ground
    And cry me a river
    And assure me I'm crazy
    While you question the answers
    And then you lean on my best friends
    Until you find better weather
    And you take a vacation
    I hope you got all my letters
    Signed "The Great Depression"
    Baby rollin' and tumblin'

  • Brian Fallon sings here: "You say I'm hopelessly devoted to misery. But I don't want to be devoted anymore." Radio.com asked him if he thought hope could be punk? The Gaslight anthem frontman replied: "I think so. If you look at some of the bands when I was growing up, take The Clash. 'Stay Free'? I think that's a very hopeful song."

    "Early hardcore stuff, the melodic stuff that was coming out in our neck of the woods and Oregon, was actually really positive," Fallon continued. "'This is trouble, but it's not gonna hold me down.' Almost like a soul message, from the '60s. That real self-power thing. And for me, it also comes out of gospel music. I don't know if it's punk, but it's definitely where I'm coming from. And that line was like, 'I'm just sick of being miserable.' The Hell with this! Enough!"

  • This was written by Berry Gordy and Tyran Carlo (Roquel "Billy" Davis). The royalties from this song (and two hits by Marv Johnson) enabled Gordy to borrow the money needed to start up Motown Records.

  • The title comes from a Louis Jordan movie with an all-black cast called Reet, Petite, and Gone.
  • In 1986, this was re-released in the UK and rocketed to #1 after millions of Britons saw a Miller beer commercial featuring a plasticine-animated Jackie Wilson singing this song.
  • Van Morrison wrote and recorded a song called "Jackie Wilson Said," which was covered by Dexys Midnight Runners . The first line in that song is: "Well, Jackie Wilson said, it was Reet Petite..."

    Early Morning Rain Lyrics


    In the early mornin' rain
    With a dollar in my hand
    With an aching in my heart
    And my pockets full of sand
    I'm a long ways from home
    And I missed my loved one so
    In the early mornin' rain
    With no place to go

    Out on runway number nine
    Big seven o seven set to go
    Well I'm stuck here on the grass
    Where the pavement never grows
    Where the liquor tasted good
    And all the women all were fast
    There, there she goes my friend
    She's rolling down at last

    Hear the mighty engines roar
    See the silver wing on high
    She's away and westward bound
    For above the clouds she'll fly
    Where the mornin' rain don't fall
    And the sun always shines
    She'll be flying over my home
    In about three hours time

    This ol' airport's got me down
    It's no damn good to me
    And I'm stuck here on the ground
    As cold and drunk as I can be
    Can't jump a jet plane
    Like you can a freight train
    So I best be on my way
    In the early mornin' rain
    Can't jump a jet plane
    Like you can a freight train
    So I best be on my way
    In the early mornin' rain

    Early Morning Rain Song Chart
  • The first Gordon Lightfoot composition to become well known, this song was composed by the Canadian singer-songwriter in 1964. The tune describes a down-on-luck man far from home, observing the takeoff of a Boeing 707 plane. According to some sources, it was inspired by Lightfoot seeing off a friend at the Los Angeles airport.
  • One of Gordon Lightfoot's most covered songs, this was first featured on Judy Collins' Fifth Album, before its release by the Canadian singer-songwriter. Not much later it was recorded both by Ian & Sylvia as the title track of their 1965 album and by Peter, Paul & Mary for their See What Tomorrow Brings set. Other notable covers include ones by Bob Dylan on his 1970 Self Portrait LP, Elvis Presley, whose version can be heard on his 1972 Elvis Now disc and Paul Weller, whose interpretation reached #40 in the UK in 2005.

    Peter, Paul & Mary's version reached #91 on the US pop charts, the only time the song has reached the Hot 100.
  • Elvis Presley also performed the song during the USA airing of his 1973 Aloha From Hawaii via Satellite TV show. Lightfoot recalled during a 2014 Reddit AMA that it was the favorite cover of any of tunes. "I got a lot of attention on that song," he recalled. "I tried to meet him once, but Elvis had left the building. I never got to meet him, I never did, I almost got to meet him but I never got to meet the guy."
  • Gordon Lightfoot told Mojo magazine regarding Bob Dylan's cover: "I was totally blown away that he would record one of my songs in the first place. It helped my career - I'd not had a hit single myself at that point. His cover was a linchpin in that whole process because it made people in the industry aware that I was producing good songs."
