Story behind the song
A lyric I came up with ahead of my move up north in Tenerife to San Marcos and it was inspired in part by watching a video of The Leftovers doing a cover of Matchbox Blues. KillerMiller of the band recorded a cover version of the my song and this is his first take!
Lyrics
I ain't got no drummer, ain't got no bass player too, I ain't got no drummer, ain't got no bass player too, I ain't got no band but me doing what I do! I ain't got no cat baskets but I got 3 cats, I ain't got no cat baskets but I got 3 cats, But I got a new apartment & in Britain they call them flats! I got no driver but got a long way to go, I got no driver but got a long way to go, I'm going to San Marcos that's all that I know! Well, I must get disconnected, gonna be offline, I said I must get disconnected, gonna be offline, But when I get on back well I'll be doing fine!
