Got My Feet On The Ground - written and performed by Dave Davies at the age of 18. "Dave Davies, one of a small handful of truly iconic guitar heroes who today is recognized as a genuine rock innovator, is actually much more than that." Goldmine/Shirley Pena.
Dave is the founder and lead guitarist of the legendary British Rock Band The Kinks. His guitar style, power chords and amp distortion have been a major influence in Rock, Heavy Metal and Punk. Member of The US & UK Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fames, Dave's songs have been in motion pictures and he has released several solo CD's. A tribute and thanks to the legendary Dave Davies for all the great music he has given us and as an inspiration for overcoming so many things, especially his 2004 stroke, also for the kindness he shows to his fans. Thank you and bless you, Dave!
Sending love and best wishes to you. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Davies
Got My Feet On The Ground was first released on The Kinks album Kinda Kinks mono mix, recorded 15-17 Feb, 1965 at Pye Studios (No. 2), London.
Some really great guitar riffs in this song!

Got My Feet On The Ground
I wanna lot out of life, but I know my limitations
Guess I want a lot of things and got my inclinations
Got my feet on the ground, and I'm standing on my own
I don't need no one
I don't need no one
I've learned a lot out of life, watchin' other folks mistakes
Funny things that they can get for finding out too late
I got my feet on the ground, and I'm standing on my own
I don't need no one
I don't need no one
Well I don't need nobody else
All I need's a single ticket
When I travel on my own
Not afraid to be alone
I got my feet upon the ground, and I'm standing on my own
When I travel far and wide
And looking for a four leaf clover
Don't mind if I can't find it, got no chip upon my shoulder
Got my feet on the ground, and I'm standing on my own
I don't need no one
I don't need no one
Well I don't need nobody else
All I need's a single ticket
When I travel on my own
Not afraid to be alone
I got my feet upon the ground, and I'm standing on my own
When I travel far and wide
And looking for a four leaf clover
Don't mind if I can't find it, got no chip upon my shoulder
Got my feet on the ground, and I'm standing on my own
I don't need no one
I don't need no one
I don't need no one
I don't need no one
