THE OTHER SIDE (lyrics)
Johnny was a sailor, a seaman, a fishing lad
He caught a white whale and he went for a ride
Down came the devil in the thunder and the rain
Sayin' "Johnny won't you come to the other side", oh ...
Johnny started drinking and he stared feeling mean
Well he stared feeling dirty and he couldn't come clean
He ran into the darkness thinking he could hide
When he heard a voice callin' from the other side, oh ...
How many times have you heard this song
Where the hero starts out and then it all goes wrong
How many roads must a man walk down
Before he learns to keep his feet on the ground-o?
I don't know where it all went wrong
The night I put my head in my hands and cried
Everyone knows that what's done is done
But you done gone to the other side, oh...
Nice song! I'd love to do a cover of that. Unfortunately I need to find a job first or I'll be busking on the corner soon LOL

@dalekenjarvis - Smokin! Long time no hear! I am so sorry to hear about your current state of affairs ... you know, it was unemployment and desperation that led me to pick up the guitar in the first place ... but surely a talented musician such as yourself could score an actual paying gig? Much love and thank you again for all your encouragement, don't be a stranger ;.)
