Story Behind the Song
There's an old Kingston Trio record my Dad used to have called At Large, I listened to it a lot when I was a kid. One song on it was about a western gunfighter named John Hardy that has a beautiful guitar riff, sounds like the old west. I expanded on that idea, made it a bit softer, and came up with this. I like the open-ended arrangement, and Peter's djembe playing really added a lot.
Lyrics
GETAWAY
Walls closin' in, all my spirit broken
City chokin' my freedom, I know I need to run
Dreams of green oases obsess my night and day
But greed and gold still hold me, I try but I can't get away
getaway
c) Paul Meredith, 1999
