    Story Behind the Song
    This is pathetically autobiographical

    Lyrics
    son

    i got a call from the preacher man
    he said BLUE how come you never clasp your hands
    i said sir i appreciate your sense of contentment
    but nothin' ever happened for me with outside involvement
    especially from somethin' that i cannot see
    he said son the source of your torment
    will never let you be

    he said son you're always runnin' oh yeah
    runnin' against the wind
    i said thank you sir for your concern
    but please don't call me son again

    police man he pulled me over
    and started frownin' at me
    i said sir your disapproval it does not bother me
    he said son you've got a bad a bad attitude
    i said just because we disagree that does not
    make me rude

    chorus

    teacher started tellin' me the books i
    should not read
    i said teacher when i'm done i'll decide
    if i agree
    she said son you gotta think this way if
    you are to succeed
    i said teacher thinkin' is the only thing left
    that is free

    chorus
