	Story Behind the Song This song was inspired by the new bandstand built in my hometown where I used to romp.I wrote this in Feb 2001 and played it for the first time on the Bandstand last summer. It's kind of like my thank-you song to the small town and the people I grew up with. I recorded it instrumentally in a couple hours, the vocals went easy on this one Lyrics Gigging is hard I don't know why they call it playing Theres a million like me strumming around what their saying The things we do for our creative expressions The things we give up to make a little impression Up all night I don't why We go so far to get a little high But theres nothing like it Chorus And theres nothing like this green park of my home No theres nothing like this, this high all my own Everything I thought, Everywhere I ran Back where I started Back where I began Breaking in this bandatand Breaking in this bandstand This town has seen my assortment of phases Country hic, hippie chic, party girl phases I met music here I marched down these streets And I thank this little town for the memories so sweet Glad to be here Glad to get away Nothing much to do but sit around and play And theres nothing like it Chorus Remember Big Bud, Quinn Shiny Joe Shaheen Alices and Finches and the magazine Remember the Sherburne Inn, Ossie and June That magic brick house, Willie and the Zoo Up in Irish heaven theres a bar and stage Where ole Dick Keefe sings and dances He's ageless and timeless I still hear him singing He's singing down on this Green park of my home He's sing down on this Hey! I holding my own! Everything I thought, Everywhere I ran Back where I started back where I began Breaking in this band Breaking in this band Breaking in this bandstand Breaking in this bandstand
